Biotransformations have developed into an important tool of organic synthesis and most synthetic sequences will benefit from the use of a biotransformation step. This volume completes the collection of biotransformations presented in the Biotechnology series. Volumes 8 a and b provide a comprehensive guide to the established and emerging uses of enzymes, each chapter is devoted to a single class of transformation. The description of several bond forming reactions is followed by four chapters on structue and catalytic activity. Case studies of important industrial and synthetic applications round off the practical orientation of the book.

Biotransformations have developed into an important tool of organic synthesis. Most synthetic sequences will benefit from the use of a biotransformation step, and the use of multiple enzyme single pot reactions enables several steps to be telescoped together. Volumes 8a and b provide a comprehensive guide to the established and emerging uses of enzymes. Each chapter is devoted to a single class of transformation so that the competing possibilities can be readily compared, and there is a strong emphasis on practical and reliable reactions. Topics included in Volume 8a are: Perspectives/ Practical Aspects/ Lipases/ Esterases/ Cleavage of Amide Bonds/ Nitriles/ Alkaloids/ Yeast/ Alcohol Dehydrogenases/ Hydroxylation and Dihydroxylation/ Flavin Monooxygenases Major topics of Volume 8b: Phosphorylation/ C-C Bond Formation/ Formation of Glycoside Bonds/ Synthetic ApplicationsContent: Chapter 1 Perspectives in Biotransformations (pages 5-23): Michael K. TurnerChapter 2 Biotransformations?Practical Aspects (pages 25-34): David R. KellyChapter 3 Biotransformations with Lipases (pages 36-191): Romas J. Kazlauskas and Uwe T. BornscheuerChapter 4 Esterases (pages 193-241): Sara J. PhythianChapter 5 Cleavage and Formation of Amide Bonds (pages 243-275): David W. T. HoopleChapter 6 Nitriles (pages 277-324): Alan William BunchChapter 7 Alkaloids (pages 326-361): Neil C. BruceChapter 8 Yeast (pages 363-389): Stefano ServiChapter 9 Dehydrogenases?Characteristics, Design of Reaction Conditions, and Applications (pages 391-473): Jorg PetersChapter 10 Hydroxylation and Dihydroxylation (pages 475-533): Herbert L. HollandChapter 11 Flavin Monooxygenases-Uses as Catalysts for Baeyer?Villiger Ring Expansion and Heteroatom Oxidation (pages 535-587): David R. Kelly, Peter W. H. Wan and Jenny Tang
