<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To a method for enantiomeric conversion of amines by enzyme treatment. <P>SOLUTION: The method for the enantiomeric conversion of amines includes treating a chiral amine or a mixture of amine enantiomers with a Type II amine oxidase enzyme (e.g. Aspergillus niger monoamine oxidase) capable of catalysing oxidation of the amine in a stereoselective manner and, subsequently or simultaneously, treating with a reducing agent. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
