Two (Chemo)-enzymatic cascades for the production of opposite enantiomers of chiral azidoalcohols

Multi-step cascade reactions have gained increasing attention in the biocatalysis field in recent years. In particular, multi-enzymatic cascades can achieve high molecular complexity without workup of reaction intermediates thanks to the enzymes’ intrinsic selectivity; and where enzymes fall short, organo-or metal catalysts can further expand...
