Abstract:
As recently reported, the olefin-forming oxidative decarboxylation of straight-chain C4–C22 carboxylic acids catalyzed by P450 peroxygenase OleTJE constitutes a mild alkene synthesis. The present study shows that structurally different carboxylic acids are also accepted, including those that generate di-substituted olefins. Exploratory mutational experiments lead to increased trans-selectivity.
