This study describes the regioselective hydroxylation and the rates of conversion of a series of fluorinated phenol derivatives by phenol hydroxylase from the yeast Trichosporon cutaneum. The natural logarithm of the kcat value for the conversion of the phenolic substrates

The influence of various C4/C5 substituents in catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) derivatives on the overall rate of conversion by catechol-1,2-dioxygenase from Pseudomonas putida (arvilla) C1 was investigated. Using catechol, 4-methylcatechol, 4-fluorocatechol, 4-chlorocatechol, 4-bromocatechol, 4,5-difluorocatechol and 4-chloro-5-fluorocatechol, it could be demonstrated that substituents
