Abstract
A study on the stereochemistry of the oxidation of sulfur by several monooxygenases using numerous organic sulfides as substrates is reported. In most cases the sulfoxidation reaction is highly enantioselective. The various factors that control the enantioselectivity have been examined.Keywords
