Enzyme-based Organic Synthesis, Hardcover by Cheng, Cheanyeh, ISBN 1118027949, ISBN-13 9781118027943, Brand New, Free shipping in the US "An enzyme is a protein that accelerates biochemical reactions and is structured specifically for the reaction it catalyzes. Enzymes can be very useful catalysts in organic synthesis (biocatalysis and biotransformations) as they tend to be very efficient, with excellent enantio- and regioselectivity, and are environmentally "green" with a good safety profile. Biocatalysis represents a significant growth area for synthetic organic chemistry. As environmentally-friendly processes that fulfill requirements of green chemistry grow in emphasis and application, enzymatic organic synthesis will become an important part of mainstream synthetic chemistry"--

SynopsisEnzyme-Based Organic Synthesis An insightful exploration of an increasingly popular technique in organic chemistry In Enzyme-Based Organic Synthesis , expert chemist Dr. Cheanyeh Cheng delivers a comprehensive discussion of the principles, methods, and applications of enzymatic and microbial processes for organic synthesis. The book thoroughly explores this growing area of green synthetic organic chemistry, both in the context of academic research and industrial practice. The distinguished author provides a single point of access for enzymatic methods applicable to organic synthesis and focuses on enzyme catalyzed organic synthesis with six different classes of enzyme. This book serves as a link between enzymology and biocatalysis and serves as an invaluable reference for the growing number of organic chemists using biocatalysis. Enzyme-Based Organic Synthesis provides readers with multiple examples of practical applications of the main enzyme classes relevant to the pharmaceutical, medical, food, cosmetics, fragrance, and health care industries. Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to foundational topics, including the discovery and nature of enzymes, enzyme structure, catalytic function, molecular recognition, enzyme specificity, and enzyme classes Practical discussions of organic synthesis with oxidoreductases, including oxidation reactions and reduction reactions Comprehensive explorations of organic synthesis with transferases, including transamination with aminotransferases and phosphorylation with kinases In-depth examinations of organic synthesis with hydrolases, including the hydrolysis of the ester bond Perfect for organic synthetic chemists, chemical and biochemical engineers, biotechnologists, process chemists, and enzymologists, Enzyme-Based Organic Synthesis is also an indispensable resource for practitioners in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics, and fragrance industries that regularly apply this type of synthesis., This book discusses the methods and applications of enzymatic and microbial processes for organic synthesis, in particular asymmetric synthesis. Coverage also includes basic principles associated of enzyme specificity and catalytic abilities. The author details organic syntheses with the main classes of enzymes, illustrating their important characteristics of substrate and chemical specificity, regioselectivity, and stereoselectivity that these enzymes bring to organic synthesis. Applications for pharmaceutical and medicinal industry, food industry, cosmetics, fragrance, and health care are also described.
