The efficient and sustainable hydroxylation, epoxidation and sulfoxidation of a wide range of benzene derivatives using an engineered variant of a bacterial cytochromeP450 enzyme is reported. These reactions were catalyzed with high activity, regioselectivity and total turnover number (up to 20,000) and in certain instances these reactions were achieved with high enanatioselectivity (up to 98 % ee

A bacterial flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), fused to phosphite dehydrogenase, has been used to explore its biocatalytic potential. The bifunctional biocatalyst could be expressed in high amounts in Escherichia coli and was able to oxidize indole and indole derivatives into a variety of indigo compounds. The monooxygenase also performs the sulfoxidation of a wide range of prochiral sulfides, showing moderate to good enantioselectivities in forming chiral sulfoxides.
enantioselective sulfoxidation of various sulfides has been achieved by a N,N'-dioxide-iron(iii) complex with 35% aq. H2O2 as the oxidant. The utility of the current method was demonstrated by asymmetric gram-scale synthesis of drug molecule (R)-modafinil. Moreover, a possible working mode was provided to elucidate the chiral induction.

describes the synthesis, spectroscopic and crystallographic characterization of a cadmium complex of 10-propoylisoalloxazine-7-carboxylic acid (Flc-Cd). Catalyticactivity of Flc-Cd towards aerobic sulphoxidation reaction was investigated in the presence of L-ascorbic acid as the reducing agent. Notably the neutral un-metalated flavin analogue did not show any significant catalyticactivity. The design

A chiral iron(III) salencomplex with a chiral photo-switchable phosphate counterion is reported for the sulfoxidation of alkenes in a stereoselective manner. Irradiation with light allows access to either enantiomer of the sulfoxide.
