accessible aromatic thiols. We demonstrate that nearly 50 ncAAs with a diverse array of structures can be biosynthesized from these simple small‐molecule precursors by hijacking the cysteine biosynthetic enzymes, and the resulting ncAAs can subsequently be incorporated into proteins via an expanded genetic code. Moreover, we demonstrate that bioorthogonal reactive groups such as aromatic azides and

Method for preparing thiol compounds by coupling cysteine having the formula HS-CH₂-CH(NH₂)COOH via an -S- bridge to a hydrocarbon compound and subsequently reacting the cysteine conjugate obtained with β-lyase to form the relevant thiol compounds. For instance it is possible to prepare the flavour p-mentha-8-thiol-3-one starting from pulegone as illustrated in the diagram below:
