Abstract

Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenases catalyze the energetically challenging oxidation of levulinates (4-oxopentanoates) to 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HPA) derivates under ambient conditions, replacing propellant-grade H2O2 with aerial oxygen as the oxidant. This reaction enables a new pathway to a platform for chemical 3-HPA, an important intermediate in the non-petrol based production of a variety of bulk chemicals (acrylates, malonates, 1,3-propanediol).
