Nornicotine, a native component of tobacco and minor nicotine metabolite, was found to catalyze the chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes under homogeneous aqueous conditions. The Royal Society of Chemistry.
Copying nature's mechanism for the decarboxylation of β-keto acids into catalytic antibodies by reactive immunization
Bj?rnestedt, Robert,Zhong, Guofu,Lerner, Richard A.,Barbas III, Carlos F.

Reactive immunization was used to generate catalytic antibodies that use the enamine mechanism common to the natural class I aldolase enzymes. In order to investigate the possibility of exploiting the imine and enamine intermediates programmed into antibo
