The enzymatic reaction arylNH2→arylNO2, the nonenzymatic counterpart of which requires drastic conditions, was previously hardly studied. Now a chloroperoxidase (CPOP) isolated from the bacterial species Pseudomonas has been found to catalyze not only halogenations in vitro, but also the oxidation of the precursor 1 to 2.
