Abstract:Transketolase variants catalyse a promiscuous acyloin condensation of aliphatic aldehydes leading in one step to unsymmetrical α-hydroxyketones while offering green advances compared to previous enzymatic and chemical ways.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
