| Summary: | Nowadays, the worldwide demand for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) requires novel, cost-effective, safe, and environmentally friendly synthetic processes. Given this scenario, biocatalysis has started to take an ever-growing impact on industrial chemical processes [1,2]. The application of enzymes to catalyze industrial reactions has the potential to make chemical processes less contaminant and more sustainable, in accordance with the concept and principles of Green Chemistry [3]. Moreover, biocatalysis offers additional advantages, such as the possibility to perform one-pot reactions, a higher region- and stereo-selectivity, or the absence of intermediates that require tedious purification steps, which make enzyme-mediated processes a powerful ally for a successful industrial implementation of a process. |
