As shown here, the biochemical conversion reaction of immobilized green pea protein for the substrate 1-(2-naphthyl)ethanol (201 mg) requires 4 days by going through bioconversion to 2-acetonaphthone accompanying sterically selective oxidation of (R)-1-(2-naphthyl)ethanol to obtain 100 mg of (S)-1-(2-naphthyl)ethanol at a yield of 50% at an optical purity of 99% e.e. or higher (see FIG. 1).
