In the direct hydroxylation of C–H bonds by cytochrome P450s, their regioselectivities between primary and secondary carbons depend strongly on their C–H bond-dissociation energies. Thus, selective hydroxylation at the terminal position is a challenging task because of its low reactivity compared with internal positions. On the other hand, CYP153A33 can hydroxylate long fatty acids with high regioselectivity at the terminal position. For highly selective hydroxylation of gaseous alkanes at the terminal position, we herein combined CYP153A33 with substrate analog decoy molecules to alter the substrate specificity of the enzyme. Perfluoroacyl amino acids can effectively activate CYP153A33 and facilitate the regioselective hydroxylation of propane at the terminal position to afford 1-propanol (1-propanol/2-propanol = 80/20). In addition, we found that the use of CYP153A33 with decoy molecules also enables the hydroxylation of ethane and methane.

Catalysis Science & Technology

Catalysis Science & Technology is committed to publishing research reporting high-quality, cutting-edge developments across the catalysis community at large. The journal places equal focus on publications from the heterogeneous, homogeneous, thermo-, electro-, photo-, organo- and biocatalysis communities. Works published in the journal feature a balanced mix of fundamental, technology-oriented, experimental, computational, digital and data-driven original research, thus appealing to catalysis practitioners in both academic and industrial environments. Original research articles published in the journal must demonstrate new catalytic discoveries and/or methodological advances that represent a significant advance on previously published work, from the molecular to the process scales. We welcome rigorous research in a wide range of timely or emerging applications related to the environment, health, energy and materials. Catalysis Science & Technology publishes Communications, Articles, Reviews and Perspectives. More details regarding manuscript types may be found in the Information for Authors section.
