Mode of enzymic oxygenation at primary carbon atoms: stereochemistry of hydroxylation of C-1 chiral octanes by Pseudomonas oleovorans
Abstract
It was shown, using (1R)- and (1S)-[1-3H,2H,1H;14C]octanes, that C-1 hydroxylatioin by P. oleovorans strain TF4-1L proceeds with retention of configuration.
