Abstract

The application of a straightforward biocatalytic technology for the reduction of racemic 2‐monosubstituted 3‐thiazolines, which are easily prepared via Asinger‐multicomponent reaction, is reported. The biocatalytic reduction yields racemic 2‐monosubstituted 3‐thiazolidines, which are difficult to be prepared by means of classic chemical routes, in moderate to high yields. Moreover, our study clarifies the stereochemical reaction course of the biocatalytic reduction. Furthermore, the efficiency of this biocatalytic technology is demonstrated in an experiment at an elevated substrate concentration of 60 mM leading to 96% conversion.
