Recent advances in the bio-catalytic synthesis of α-cyanohydrins are reviewed. New descriptions of HNL (hydroxynitrile lyase) catalytic mechanism, new investigation in the reaction system (including the modification of HNL, reaction media, and reactor), as well as the hydrocyanation of a series of aldehydes and ketones, which has not been reported in the prevenient reviews, are summarized.

Key words: α-cyanohydrins, bio-catalysis, hydroxynitrile lyase, asymmetric hydrocyanation, reaction mechanism
