Abstract

Abstract : An enzymatic bioelectrode made up of galactose oxidase electrically wired with a redox polymer was used for the electrocatalytic oxidation of bio‐renewable substrates with minimal influence from ambient O2 . A practical example for the conversion of glycerol and 5‐(hydroxymethyl)furfural in a circular flow‐through setup is shown. The products were inspected to evaluate the possibility of substrate over‐oxidation during enzymatic catalysis. More information can be found in the Research Article by W. Schuhmann, F. Conzuelo and co‐workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202200868 ).
