Organic substrate spectrum

Enzymes have become valuable tools in medium to large-scale synthetic organic chemistry I66-70). Owing to the fact that hydrolases possess a wide substrate spectrum and do not usually need cofactors for their catalytic function, they are at present the enzymes most widely used as biocatalysts in preparative organic chemistry. Among the hydrolases the huge family of peptidases plays an important role in various processes of proteolysis as shown above. 

Cesium fluoroxysulfate is soluble in acetonitrile to the extent of about 0.07-0.08 M at room temperature. The solutions show little or no decomposition over the course of many hours, and acetonitrile has been found to be a convenient solvent in which to examine the reactions of S04p with organic substrates, although heterogeneous systems have also been used. " The P NMR spectrum of CSSO4P in acetonitrile shows a single line with a shift of + 132 ppm downfield from CPClj. ...
