Nuclear Waste and Biocatalysis: A Sustainable Liaison?

It is well-known that energy-rich radiation induces water splitting, eventually yielding hydrogen peroxide. Synthetic applications, however, are scarce and to the best of our knowledge, the combination of radioactivity with enzyme-catalysis has not been considered yet. Peroxygenases utilize H2O2 as an oxidant to promote highly selective...

Cascading g-C₃N₄ and Peroxygenases for Selective Oxyfunctionalization Reactions

Peroxygenases are very interesting catalysts for specific oxyfunctionalization chemistry. Instead of relying on complicated electron transport chains, they rely on simple hydrogen peroxide as the stoichiometric oxidant. Their poor robustness against H₂O₂ can be addressed via in situ generation of H₂O<sub>2<...
