Electrochemical Molecular Conversion of α-Keto Acid to Amino Acid at a Low Overpotential Using a Nanoporous Gold Catalyst
A nanoporous gold (NPG) electrode prepared through a facile anodization technique was employed in the electrochemical reductive amination of biomass-derivable α-keto acids in the presence of a nitrogen source to produce the corresponding amino acids. NPG showed a clear reductive current in the prese...
