Galactose oxidase (GO) contains one copper ion at its active site and performs a two-electron oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes, coupled with a reduction of O 2 to eomer in 68 % yield. The entire sequence was performed in 24 linear steps from (S)-malic acid. The material thus obtained was s
