Chapter 11 provides a comparison of different biocatalytic routes to target molecules, including both pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The reader is taken through a series of well-known targets where multiple different biocatalytic routes have been developed and in some cases scaled-up for commercial application. The aim of this chapter is to begin to gain some insight into the ways in which target molecules can be disconnected back to simpler precursors, which can then be transformed using biocatalysis.
