The nitrogen–nitrogen bond is a core feature of diverse functional groups like hydrazines,
nitrosamines, diazos, and pyrazoles. Such functional groups are found in> 300 known …

Nitrile metabolizing enzymes, ie, aldoxime dehydratase, hydroxynitrile lyase, nitrilase, nitrile
hydratase, and amidase, are the key catalysts in carbon nitrogen triple bond anabolism and …

Pickering emulsion systems have emerged as platforms for the synthesis of organic
molecules in biphasic biocatalysis. Herein, the catalytic performance was evaluated for …

Biocatalytic aldoxime dehydration is one of the most efficient methods used for the synthesis
of nitriles under ambient reaction conditions without the use of highly toxic cyanides. At the …

Nitriles are uncommon in nature and are typically constructed from oximes through the
oxidative decarboxylation of amino acid substrates or from the derivatization of carboxylic …

Abstract Since Asano and Kato first reported in 1998 an aldoxime dehydratase from Bacillus
sp. strain OxB-1 catalyzes the degradation of aldoximes to their corresponding nitriles, six …

A biocatalytic approach toward linear aliphatic nitriles being widely used as industrial bulk
chemicals has been developed that runs at high substrate loadings of up to 1.4 kg/L as …

Amyloids are protein aggregates bearing a highly ordered cross β structural motif, which
may be functional but are mostly pathogenic. Their formation, deposition in tissues and …

A chemoenzymatic strategy has been implemented to synthesize nitriles from benzyl amines
under mild conditions. Aldoxime dehydratase (Oxd) plays a decisive role to convert …

Nitriles, which are mostly needed and produced by the chemical industry, play a major role
in various industry segments, ranging from high‐volume, low‐price sectors, such as …
