In enzymology, sulcatone reductase (EC 1.1.1.260) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

+ NAD+
 
 
 
H+
Sulcatone reductase
 
H+
 
+ NADH
 

The two substrates of this enzyme are sulcatol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are sulcatone, reduced NADH, and a proton. [1] [2] [3] [4]

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is sulcatol:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
