In this Catalysis Science & Technology Hot article Robert S. Phillips and Musa M. Musa review recent developments in using biocatalysts to make asymmetric hydrophobic alcohols.
They particularly look into the use of non-aqueous media with alcohol dehydrogenases, which allows enzymes to be more versatile.
