Reduce, reuse, reengineer! 2,5‐Dimethylphenol is of high interest for the production of temperature stable polymers (>500 K) and as a building block for “next‐generation” plastics. The presented reengineered P 450 BM 3 variant (R 47 S/Y 51 W/I 401 M) has a good catalytic activity ( k cat =1950 min −1 ), excellent coupling efficiency (66 %), and selectivity (>98 %) for 2,5‐dimethylphenol production.
