The radical rate-determining step in the oxidation of benzyl alcohols by two N–OH-type mediators of laccase: the polar N-oxyl radical intermediate

Abstract

Determination of the effect of substituents in the aerobic oxidation of X-substituted benzyl alcohols by laccase, with mediation by HPI or HBT, confirms the H-atom abstraction from the benzylic C–H bond as the rate-determining step (HAT route), and supports a polar nature for the N-oxyl radical intermediate originating from the two N–OH mediators.
