P450tol monooxygenase was discovered as a unique and highly enantioselective enzyme for asymmetric epoxidation of some terminal alkenes containing electron-withdrawing groups and benzylic hydroxylation of several ethylbenzenes giving the corresponding useful and valuable products, such as (R)-2- and 3-substituted styrene oxides, (S)-4-substituted styrene oxides, and (S)-benzylic alcohols, in high ee
发现P450tol单加氧酶是一种独特的高对映选择性酶,用于某些含吸电子基团的末端烯烃的不对称环氧化和若干乙苯的苄基羟基化作用,从而提供相应的有用和有价值的产物,例如(R)-2-和3-取代的
