Enantioenriched amine synthesis is inaugural example of photoredox and enzyme collaboration

Researchers in Switzerland have successfully introduced cyclic enzymatic chemistry into a photochemical reaction to perform an enantioselective imine-to-amine reduction. The concept could act as a springboard for introducing more control into light-induced transformations.
