Construction and optimization of a biocatalytic route for the synthesis of neomenthylamine from menthone

Abstract (+)-Neomenthylamine is an important industrial precursor used to synthesize high value-added chemicals. Here, we report a novel biocatalytic route to synthesize (+)-neomenthylamine by amination of readily available (−)-menthone substrate using ω-transaminase. By screening a panel of ω-trans...
