Cytochrome P450 enzymes catalyze a broad set of C-H activation reactions, the most prominent being hydroxylation. This review provides an overview of the regioselectivity (CH3-terminal, in-chain, and carboxylate-terminal) and the optical purity of the hydroxylation products obtained from fatty acids as far as described, focusing on systems close to preparative application.
