So far, the alcohol dehydrogenase-catalysed conversion of longer chain aliphatic substrates has been challenging due to their low solubility in aqueous solution. However, by utilising the ketone directly as a second organic phase, the straightforward synthesis of long chain aliphatic chiral alcohols is enabled.
到目前为止,由于长链脂肪族底物在
水溶液中的溶解度较低,通过醇脱氢酶催化的转化一直颇具挑战性。然而,通过直接利用酮作为第二有机相,我们实现了长链脂肪族手性醇的直接合成。
