✦ Synopsis

New strategies are continually being developed for using enzymes to efficiently catalyse the enantioselective synthesis of chiral non-racemic compounds. Alternatives to asymmetric synthesis or kinetic resolution include dynamic kinetic resolution, deracemisation and enantioconvergent transformations. Moreover, a much greater understanding is being developed of the parameters that can affect the stereochemical outcome of the reaction (e.g. solvent, substrate design, immobilization and directed evolution).
