a

Reactions conditions: 0.5 mM substrate; 0.001 mM CYP152 enzyme; 0.5 mM alditol oxidase (AldO) and 10% glycerol for in situ generation of H2O2 as the oxygen source; 30 °C; 6 h.

b

Undecanal formation is the sequential hydroxylation, isomerization, and decarboxylation.

c

Other oxygenation reactions were detected, including epoxidation and ketonization.
