Abstract Organofluorines are widely used in a variety of applications, ranging from pharmaceuticals to pesticides and advanced materials. The widespread use of organofluorines also leads to its accumulation in the environment, and two major questions arise: how to synthesize and how to degrade this type of compound effectively? In contrast to a considerable number of easy-access chemical methods, milder and more effective enzymatic methods remain to be developed. In this review, we present recent progress on enzyme-catalyzed C–F bond formation and cleavage, focused on describing C–F bond formation enabled by fluorinase and C–F bond cleavage catalyzed by oxidase, reductase, deaminase, and dehalogenase.
