Enantio- and chemoselective bioreduction of β-keto nitriles by the fungus Curvularia lunata
摘要:
The use of methanol as cosolvent allows the chemoselective reduction of aromatic beta -keto nitriles by the fungus Curvularia lunata CECT 2130, yielding the corresponding (S)-beta -hydroxy nitriles in a highly enantioselective way. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
