Abstract

Abstract Irradiation with visible light of a deoxygenated aqueous solution of methyl‐cobalamin ( 1 ) under an atmosphere of CO and at ambient temperature converts 1 into acetyl‐cobalamin ( 2 ). This carbonylation has potential relevance with respect to bacterial acetate biosynthesis from CO 2 .
