A Standalone Flavoprotein Monooxygenase Directs Divergent Tropolone Skeletal Editing through Baeyer–Villiger-Triggered Rearrangement

Abstract Late-stage oxidative remodeling of tropolone cores underpins the remarkable scaffold diversity in fungal meroterpenoid biosynthesis. However, the mechanistic basis by which a single enzymatic catalyst diverts a common substrate toward carbon-excising ring contraction ver...
