Enantioselective conversion of alcohols to ketones using air as the oxidant is achieved with high rates and efficiency using an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode in which an alcohol dehydrogenase and a photosynthetic NADPH recycling enzyme are confined within nanopores. The massive catalytic enhancement arising from nanoconfinement is exploited in an air-driven electrochemical cell, which requires no complicating control features yet allows continuous monitoring of the reaction via the current that flows between anode (ITO: organic chemistry) and cathode (Pt: O2 from air).
