Abstract:The synergistic combination of biocatalysis and photocatalysis is emerging as powerful tool for the development of sustainable and atom‐efficient synthetic concepts facilitating an enormous portfolio of possible reactions which even goes beyond the capabilities found in nature. Here, a cyclic deracemization process is presented tailored for the synthesis of optically pure sulfoxides which are versatile structural motifs in asymmetric synthesis as well as in bioactive compounds. Enantioselective enzyme‐catalyze… Show more
