Abstract
Optically active boron-containing alcohols were prepared via the stereoselective reduction of the corresponding carbonyl compounds by alcohol dehydrogenases. Depending on the substrate, both (R)-alcohols and (S)-alcohols were obtained with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% ee) employing either ADH-A or LB-ADH.
