Transition metal complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione as efficient mediators for the regeneration of NAD+ in enzymatic synthesis
Abstract
The complexation of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione by transition metals increases the catalytic turnover frequency by a factor of up to 17 for the aerobic-chemical and a factor of 14 for the indirect electrochemical NAD+-regeneration for HLADH catalysed alcohol oxidations in comparison with the uncomplexed phenanthrolinediones.
