Mahor, Durga (author), Cong, Zhiqi (author), Weissenborn, Martin J. (author), Hollmann, F. (author), Zhang, Wuyuan (author)The oxidation of alkanes into valuable chemical products is a vital reaction in organic synthesis. This reaction, however, is challenging, owing to the inertness of C−H bonds. Transition metal catalysts for C−H functionalization are frequently explored. Despite chemical alternatives, nature has also evolved powerful oxidative enzymes (e. g.,...review 2021
