Biocatalytic hydroxylation of n-butane with in situ cofactor regeneration at low temperature and under normal pressure

The hydroxylation of n-alkanes, which proceeds in the presence of a P450-monooxygenase advantageously at temperatures significantly below room temperature, is described. In addition, an enzymatic hydroxylation of the “liquid gas” n-butane with in situ cofactor regeneration, which does not require hi...
