an aromatic alcohol + NADP+ an aromatic aldehyde + NADPH + H+

The two substrates of this enzyme are an aromatic alcohol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). Its products are the corresponding aromatic aldehyde, reduced NADPH, and a proton.[1][2]

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 aryl-alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include aryl alcohol dehydrogenase (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, phosphate), coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase, NADPH-linked benzaldehyde reductase, and aryl-alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+).
