Many enzymes work in tandem with small molecule cofactors, which have inspired organocatalyst designs. Chemical modification of cofactor scaffolds has increased organocatalytic reactivity and reaction scope. This synopsis presents a selection of recent advances in the use of cofactors (native and mimics) in organocatalysis and biocatalysis. We aim to highlight the benefits of combining fundamental knowledge gained in both bio- and organo-catalysis for asymmetric biocatalysis.
许多酶与小分子辅因子协同工作,这启发了有机催化剂的设计。辅因子支架的化学修饰提高了有机催化的反应活性和反应范围。这篇综述介绍了在有机催化和生物催化中使用辅因子(天然和模拟物)的一些最新进展。我们旨在强调结合生物催化和有机催化中获得的基础知识来进行不对称生物催化的优势。
