Abstract An efficient chemoenzymatic process for the synthesis of azoxybenzenes was developed. A peracid was generated in situ by Novozym 435, and then a range of anilines were oxidized by the produced peracid to afford azoxybenzenes in yields ranging from 63.1 to 94.1 %. This method expands the application of lipase in organic synthesis and provides an alternative method for the synthesis of azoxybenzenes.
