Can I read Sorghum bicolor shoots in the synthesis of (S)-mandelonitrile on EtoBox?

Sorghum bicolor shoots in the synthesis of (S)-mandelonitrile by Eero Kiljunen; Liisa T. Kanerva is a Chemistry article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Sorghum bicolor shoots in the synthesis of (S)-mandelonitrile about?

An inexpensive method for the preparation of (S)-mandelonitrile from benzaldehyde and HCN in diisopropyl ether with the chemical yield and enantiomeric excess of cu. 90 96 is described. In this method, (S')-oxynitrilase in etiolated shoots of Sorghwn bicolor is used as an asymmetric catalyst. The potential of optically active cyanohydrins as intermediates for the synthesis of different types of chiral compounds, such as a-hydroxy carboxylic acids and /3-aminoalcohols is well documented'. Biocatalytic
