Abstract

Albumin has emerged as biocatalyst since 1980 and the everlasting interest for this protein is proved by numerous papers. The use of albumin was initially confined in the field of asymmetric oxidations and reductions whereas more recently it has found a broader application to chemical reactions such as addition, condensations and eliminations. This review reports the main applications of albumin in organic synthesis appeared in the literature in the last decade.
