Regio- and Enantioselective Sequential Dehalogenation of rac-1,3-Dibromobutane by Haloalkane Dehalogenase LinB [PDF]

, 2016
The hydrolytic dehalogenation of rac-1,3-dibromobutane catalyzed by the haloalkane dehalogenase LinB from Sphingobium japonicum UT26 proceeds in a sequential fashion: initial formation of intermediate haloalcohols followed by a second hydrolytic step to ...

Supramolecular Gels as Active Tools for Reaction Engineering

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 24, June 10, 2025.
The unique combination of environments within gels, self‐assembled from low‐molecular‐weight gelators, offers the ability to control reactivity in new ways, achieving unique reaction outcomes, leading to the emerging concept of supramolecular gels as nanoreactors. Smart chemical engineering methods enable the use of such gels to fabricate materials and

Evolutionary obstacles and not C-F bond strength make PFAS persistent. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
C–F bonds can be cleaved by microbes. However, evolution must overcome many obstacles to biodegrade PFAS. Abstract The fate of organic matter in the environment, including anthropogenic chemicals, is largely predicated on the enzymatic capabilities of microorganisms.
