F. Secundo et al., CYCLOHEXANONE MONOOXYGENASE CATALYZED OXIDATION OF METHYL PHENYL SULFIDE AND CYCLOHEXANONE WITH MACROMOLECULAR NADP IN A MEMBRANE REACTOR, Biotechnology letters, 15(8), 1993, pp. 865-870
Methyl phenyl sulfide and cyclohexanone were oxidized to (R)- methyl p
henyl sulfoxide and caprolactone by cyclohexanone monooxygenase. The r
eactions were carried out in a membrane reactor with the use of the ma
cromolecular coenzyme poly (ethylene glycol)-NADP. Coenzyme regenerati
on was carried out with the 2-propanol/alcohol dehydrogenase system.
