This comprehensive set gives reliable answers to all questions on enzyme catalysis – from searching for suitable catalytic systems via choosing the optimal reaction conditions to implementing modern synthesis strategies. The long-awaited new edition has been greatly expanded to include new topics and to reflect the latest research, yet retains the clear and practice-oriented presentation found in the first edition. More than a mere data collection, the three volumes provide synthetic chemists with easy access to all the first-hand information necessary for successfully using enzymes:
– the latest synthesis methods
– example applications arranged according to reaction type
– a table of all the important, commercially available enzymes
– comprehensive registers for targeted searching according to enzyme, compound, or reaction
– current references to the literature
