Abstract

Chemoenzymatic oxidations involving the CAL-B/H2O2 system was developed in a sugar derived Natural Deep Eutectic Solvent (NaDES) composed by a mixture of glucose, fructose and sucrose. Good to excellent conversions of substrates like cyclooctene, limonene, oleic acid and stilbene to their corresponding epoxides, cyclohexanone to its corresponding lactone and 2-phenylacetophenone to its corresponding ester, demonstrate the viability of the sugar NaDES as a reaction medium for epoxidation and Baeyer-Villiger oxidation.
