Photochemical and enzymatic synthesis of methanol from HCO3- with dehydrogenases and zinc porphyrin
Photochemical and enzymatic methanol synthesis from HCO3- with formate dehydrogenase (FDH), aldehyde dehydrogenase (AldDH), and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) via the photoreduction of MV2+ using ZnTPPS photosensitization was developed and the amount of produced methanol was 0.55 mumol dm(-3) after 4-h irradiation.
