Special Issue: "Organic Reactions in Green Solvents".
To overcome the well-established drawbacks of conventional organic solvents (toxicity, non-biodegradability, flammability, accumulation in the atmosphere) remarkable research efforts have been recently devoted to the replacement of traditional organic reaction media by the so-called Green Solvents. In this sense, the choice of a safe, non-toxic, biorenewable and cheap reaction media is a crucia...
متن کاملEffect of Organic Solvents on Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Celluloses
Organic solvent, Enzymatic Hydrolysis, Cellulose, Acceleration Effect, Glucose Yield Effect of organic solvents on enzymatic hydrolysis of celluloses was studied. It was found that toluene and xylene can accelerate the rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction of filter paper and cellulose powder. The addition of N,N-dimethylformamide, acetone, and alcohols was negative effect for the enzymatic...
متن کاملInfluence of Organic Solvents on Enzymatic Asymmetric Carboligations
The asymmetric mixed carboligation of aldehydes with thiamine diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzymes is an excellent example where activity as well as changes in chemo- and stereoselectivity can be followed sensitively. To elucidate the influence of organic additives in enzymatic carboligation reactions of mixed 2-hydroxy ketones, we present a comparative study of six ThDP-dependent enzymes in 13...
متن کاملMethod for selection of solvents for promotion of organic reactions
A method to select appropriate green solvents for the promotion of a class of organic reactions has been developed. The method combines knowledge from industrial practice and physical insights with computer-aided property estimation tools for selection/design of solvents. In particular, it employs estimates of thermodynamic properties to generate a knowledge base of reaction, solvent and enviro...
متن کاملEnzymatic catalysis in nonaqueous solvents.
Subtilisin and alpha-chymotrypsin vigorously act as catalysts in a variety of dry organic solvents. Enzymatic transesterifications in organic solvents follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and the values of V/Km roughly correlate with solvent's hydrophobicity. The amount of water required by chymotrypsin and subtilisin for catalysis in organic solvents is much less than needed to form a monolayer o...
