Asymmetric reduction using enzymes and chiral chemical reagents
This thesis is concerned with the asymmetric reduction of achiral substrates to chiral products on a preparative scale. In the first case dihydrofolate reductase was used to catalyse the conversion of 7,8-dihydrofolic acid into (6S)- 5,6,7, B-tetrahydrofolic acid. The required coenzyme,NADPH, was re...
