Enhancing Catalytic Reactions: Bioorganic and Enzymatic Catalysis

Written by a renowned expert in the field of organic and bioorganic chemistry, Bioorganic and Enzymatic Catalysis offers a comprehensive overview of the most significant enzymatic reactions and their corresponding bioorganic reactions. This book presents a unique approach by comparing each enzymatic reaction type with organocatalytic, organometallic, and other alternative reactions, allowing readers to understand catalytic reactions in a more integrated manner.

Sample topics covered in the book include:

• Enzymatic C-C bond formation using aldolases
• Claisen-type C-C bond formation involving fatty acid synthases and polyketide synthases
• Biomimetic cyclisations involving carbenium ions
• Enzymatic oxidation and C-H activation
• Dioxygenases and oxidoreductases

With its innovative approach, Bioorganic and Enzymatic Catalysis is an essential resource for professionals and researchers in academia and industry, as well as graduate and PhD students working in the fields of organic chemistry, biochemistry, and life sciences.
