Oxidation of Organic Compounds by Propane Monooxygenase of Rhodococcus erythropolis 3/89

The ability of propane monooxygenase of Rhodococcus erythropolis 3/89 to catalyze oxidation of higher liquid alkenes and aromatic hydrocarbons was studied. Optimal conditions of tetradecene epoxidation and benzene hydroxylation were found. Under these conditions, oxidation was shown to be accompanie...

Description
Summary:The ability of propane monooxygenase of Rhodococcus erythropolis 3/89 to catalyze oxidation of higher liquid alkenes and aromatic hydrocarbons was studied. Optimal conditions of tetradecene epoxidation and benzene hydroxylation were found. Under these conditions, oxidation was shown to be accompanied by a 100% conversion of benzene to phenol.
