Published: December 2002

In the biohydroxylation of nonactivated carbon atoms, substrate engineering has been found to be a very useful and simple means to influence substrate acceptance and the regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of this transformation. Recently, this methodology has been applied to the hydroxylation of a large number of compounds including cycloalkane carboxylic acids, ketones, amines, amides and alcohols.
