Bio-catalytic reactions involving ene-reductases (EREDs) in tandem with chemo-catalysis in water can be greatly enhanced by the presence of nanomicelles derived from the surfactant TPGS-750-M. Transformations are provided that illustrate the variety of sequences now possible in 1-pot as representative examples of this environmentally attractive approach to organic synthesis.
