Abstract

[Reaction: see text] The (R)-oxynitrilase from almonds was immobilized as a cross-linked enzyme aggregate (CLEA) via precipitation with 1,2-dimethoxyethane and subsequent cross-linking using glutaraldehyde. The resulting preparation was a highly effective hydrocyanation catalyst under microaqueous conditions, which suppress the nonenzymatic background reaction. The beneficial effect of these latter conditions on the hydrocyanation of slow-reacting aldehydes is demonstrated. The oxynitrilase CLEA was recycled 10 times without loss of activity.
