Microbiological transformation 35: Enantioselective one-step preparative scale synthesis of 1,3-dithiane-1-oxide via whole-cell bacterial oxidation

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0040-4039(96)01306-8

This work describes the preparative scale enantioselective oxidation of 1,3-dithiane to the corresponding monosulfoxide using whole-cell cultures of two bacteria, i.e. Acinetobacter calcoaceticus NCIMB 9871 and Pseudomonas sp. NCIMB 9872.
