Abstract
This study describes six yeast strains for stereoselective ketone reductions. The reaction conditions for the yeast strains (Pichia carsonii, Lodderomyces elongisporus, Candida norvegica, Candida guillermondi, Debaromyces fabryi and Candida parapsilosis) were optimized in a design of experiments for three ketones of different properties. The pH tolerance, temperature stability and productivity of the bioreductions with lyophilized cells of the yeast strains were characterized. In several cases, the optimized bioreductions resulted in enantiopure alcohols (ee > 99 %) with conversions ranging from moderate to excellent.
