Regio-selective hydroxylation of gem-difluorinated octanes by alkane hydroxylase (AlkB)

gem-Difluoromethylene substituted molecules constitute a distinct class of fluorinated compounds. In this study, special chemistry has been developed for their preparation based on the highly selective terminal hydroxylation of these gem-difluorinated oct
