Harnessing Photoenzymatic Systems for Intermolecular C-H Fluorination. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglDespite the remarkable versatility of enzymes for catalyzing complex organic transformations under mild aqueous conditions, no biocatalytic system has been reported for intermolecular C–H fluorination. A radical photoenzymatic approach is introduced that leverages a designed de novo protein scaffold with an unnatural amino acid to achieve precise ...

Biocatalysis: The Outcast [PDF]
ChemCatChem, 2010 The black sheep of the family: According to the established classification of catalysis, biocatalysis forms a separate category apart from homogeneous and heterogenous catalysis, yet, in fact, biocatalysis, much like regular chemocatalysis, is also either homogeneous or heterogeneous. This article represents a historical perspective on this dilemma and
