Journal ArticleDOI
Biocatalytic Oxidation Reactions: A Chemist's Perspective
JiaJia Dong,Elena Fernández-Fueyo,Frank Hollmann,Caroline E. Paul,Milja Pesic,Sandy Schmidt,Yonghua Wang,Sabry H. H. Younes,Wuyuan Zhang +8 more
TL;DR: The most important recent developments in the field of biocatalytic oxidation chemistry are critically summarised and the most pressing bottlenecks as well as promising solutions are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective aerobic oxidation reactions using a combination of photocatalytic water oxidation and enzymatic oxyfunctionalizations
Wuyuan Zhang,Elena Fernández-Fueyo,Yan Ni,Morten M. C. H. van Schie,Jenö Gacs,Rokus Renirie,Ron Wever,Francesco G. Mutti,Dörte Rother,Miguel Alcalde,Frank Hollmann +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that visible-light-driven, catalytic water oxidation can be used for in situ generation of H2O2 from water, rendering the peroxygenase catalytically active, allowing efficient oxyfunctionalization without stoichiometric reductants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light-Driven Enzymatic Decarboxylation of Fatty Acids.
TL;DR: Several fatty acids and their triglycerides are converted by CvFAP in near‐quantitative yield and exclusive selectivity upon illumination with blue light and very promising turnover numbers of up to 8000 were achieved in this proof‐of‐concept study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biokatalytische Oxidationsreaktionen - aus der Sicht eines Chemikers

Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Activation of C-H Bonds in a Cascade Process Combining Photochemistry and Biocatalysis.
Wuyuan Zhang,Bastien O. Burek,Elena Fernández-Fueyo,Miguel Alcalde,Jonathan Z. Bloh,Frank Hollmann +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that inorganic photocatalysts such as gold–titanium dioxide efficiently provide H2O2 through the methanol‐driven reductive activation of ambient oxygen in amounts that ensure that the enzyme remains highly active and stable.
