the two step reduction of diacetyl (butane-2,3-dione) with (R,R)-BDH solely yields (R,R)-butane-2,3-diol via (R)-acetoin, cf. EC 1.1.1.4. The enzyme catalyzes the (R)-specific oxidation of (R,R)- and meso-butane-2,3-diol to (R)- and (S)-acetoin with specific activities of 12 U/mg and 23 U/mg, respectively. Starting with diacetyl as a substrate, exclusively (R,R)-butane-2,3-diol is formed. Bacillus clausii BDH catalyzes a highly selective oxidation of secondary alcohol groups in (R)-configuration of butane-2,3-diols and also reduces the carbonyl function in acetoin and diacetyl in a stereoselective manner to yield the (R)-configuration of the resulting chiral center, it selectively acts on vicinal diketones, alpha-hydroxy ketones and vicinal diols |
