Abstract excerpt
Conversion of biological molecules into fuels or other useful chemicals is an ongoing chemical challenge. One class of enzymes that has received attention for such applications is aldehyde deformylating oxygenase (ADO) enzymes. These enzymes convert aliphatic aldehydes to the alkanes and formate. In this work, we prepared and investigated ADO enzymes modified with RuII(tris-diimine) photosensitizers as a starting...
