Abstract

For combinatorial catalysis,[1, 2] rapid and information-rich screening methods are very useful. Toward this end, we describe herein a new “cassette” in situ enzymatic screening (ISES) approach that allows the experimentalist to obtain a parallel readout on substrate specificity, as well as a sense and magnitude of enantioselectivity.[3] In its first iteration, cassette-ISES is used to “cherry pick” only those catalysts in the array that show high ISES ...
