Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to the use of UV-activated Copper Radical Oxidase (CRO) enzymes in the implementation of oxidation reactions. The present invention also relates to a process for oxidizing organic compounds using enzymes which are activated by UV light.The process according to the present invention also leads to concomitant formation of hydrogen peroxide, that can optionally be used in hydrogen peroxide mediated processes.The present invention in particular relates to the oxidation of alcohols in aldehydes.
