In the present work, we have determined the steady‐state kinetic constants for yeast alcohol dehydrogenase‐catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol (H2C=CH.CH2OH) and ethylene glycol (HOCH2.CH2OH) with NAD+, at pH 8.0; also, a kinetic mechanism for the former reaction was determined at the same pH. In addition, it was found that acrolein is a potent inhibitor of yeast alcohol de‐hydrogenase.
