“…These factorsh ave led to the increasedu se of enzymesa sb iocatalystsi nb oth preparative and industrial scale applications. [9,[15][16][17] The functionalization of CÀHb onds throughahydride transfer mechanism, as occurs in various enzymes, has received significant attention in theoretical and experimental investigations, [18][19][20][21][22][23] because understanding the reaction mechanisms underlying CÀHo xidation in these enzymes is instrumental for devising efficient industrial biocatalysts. CÀHb ond oxidation can be catalyzedb ym any flavoenzymes by the simple transfer of ah ydride equivalent to their flavin cofactors such as those in the reactions of alcohold ehydrogenase, [24] choline oxidase, [25] choline dehydrogenase, [26] amine oxidases, [27,28] vanillyl-alcohol oxidase, [29] aryl-alcohol oxidase, [30] cholesterol oxidase, [31] 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidase, [32] ands ugar oxidase.…”
