7. The combined yields of the recovered alcohol and the α-hydroxy ketone are always higher than 50%. For a recent report on the coupled use of resolution and recovery of the substrate see for example: Larsson, A. L. E.; Persson, B. A.; Backvall, J. E. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1997, 36, 1211.
8. Acyclic syn compounds are formed by the (R,R) and (S,S) pair, anti compounds by the (R,S) and (S,R) pair. With cyclic compounds the nomenclature is inverted: syn is the meso compound and anti is the (R,R) and (S,S) pair.

10. The catalytic system is equally effective as a single enzyme, where BSDR catalyzes the desired reaction while simultaneously regenerating the cofactor. In this case, the BSDR natural substrate diacetyl i.e. (2,3-butandione) has been used as a cosubstrate, see Ref. 13. For an easy work-up of the reaction mixture, however, the double-enzyme system is recommended.
