(R)-selective nitroaldol reaction catalysed by proteins of the cupin superfamily
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for producing chiral β-nitro alcohol compounds. The invention relates in particular to an (R)-selective cupin-nitroaldolase, which enantioselectively can catalyze the Henry reaction, wherein an aldehyde or ketone compound is converted to the corresponding β-nitro alcohol compound in the presence of a nitroalkane compound and a cupin-nitroaldolase.
