The results of this study report the H2O2-driven microperoxidase-8 (MP8)-catalyzed dehalogenation of halophenols such as 4-fluorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, 4-bromophenol, and 2-fluorophenol in alcoholic solvents. In methanol, the conversion of the para-halophenols and 2-fluorophenol to, respectively, 4-methoxyphenol and 2-methoxyphenol, as the major
