Deciphering Tryptophan Oxygenation: Key Modulators of 2-Oxindole Formation in MarE. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
This study reveals that MarE, a heme‐dependent aromatic oxygenase, favors dioxygenation of β‐methyl‐l‐tryptophan in the absence of ascorbate and demonstrates how structural and redox tuning shifts its reactivity toward selective monooxygenation, yielding a 2‐oxindole scaffold. These findings offer new insights into enzyme‐controlled indole oxidation in

Electrochemical Enantioselective Oxidation of Indoles via Chiral Phosphoric Acid Catalysis in Cooperation with H₃PO₄ in Aqueous Media. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
A binary organic–inorganic acid cooperative catalytic system has been developed to achieve highly enantioselective electrochemical oxidative rearrangement of indoles. The use of electricity as an oxidant in this case showed several advantages including environmental benignity and improved enantiocontrol.
