- One biochemical strategy of many living organisms is the stepwise oxidation of organic compounds to CO₂ and H₂O and the conservation of a major part of the energy thus produced in the form of ATP. It is important to be able to recognize oxidation- reduction processes in metabolism. Reduction of an organic molecule results from the hydrogenation of a double bond (Eqn 1) or of a single bond with accompanying cleavage (Eqn 2). Conversely, oxidation results from dehydrogenation. In biochemical redox reactions, the coenzymes NAD and FAD dehydrogenate/hydrogenate organic molecules in the presence of the proper enzymes.
