Applied biocatalysis : the chemist's enzyme toolbox

"Biocatalysis has had a significant impact on the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in recent years. The main driver for this is the ability to harness the regio- and stereoselectivity of enzymes to improve the efficiency of synthetic routes. For example, enzymes can offer d...
