Tertiary alcohol preferred: Hydroxylation of trans-3-methyl-L-proline with proline hydroxylases
The enzymatic synthesis of tertiary alcohols by the stereospecific oxidation of tertiary alkyl centers is a most-straightforward but challenging approach, since these positions are sterically hindered. In contrast to P450-monooxygenases, there is little known about the potential of non-heme iron(II)...
