چکیده

The TiO2-mediated photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorocatechol is studied as a branch of the degradation of 4-chlorophenol. In addition to some basic kinetic studies, the identities of many of the cyclic and acyclic intermediates, verified in most cases with authentic samples, are reported. From 4-chlorocatechol, the major product is hydroxylation to form 5-chloro-1,2,4-benzenetriol. A small amount of 4-chloropyrogallol is also produced. Substitution to give 1,2,4-benzenetriol is observed as is oxidative cleavage of the C1-C2 bond to give the diacid. The major products of all of the triols are those of oxidative cleavages, occurring mainly between ortho hydroxy-substituted carbons to give diacids but also between one hydroxy and one unsubstituted carbon to give acidaldehydes. Many smaller intermediates in the degradations are identified, and pathways are proposed for the larger compounds.

Degradation of 4-Chlorophenol via the meta Cleavage Pathway by Comamonas testosteroni JH5.

Comamonas testosteroni JH5 used 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) as its sole source of energy and carbon up to a concentration of 1.8 mM, accompanied by the stoichiometric release of chloride. The degradation of 4-CP mixed with the isomeric 2-CP by resting cells led to the accumulation of 3-chlorocatechol (3-CC), which inactivated the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase. As a result, further 4-CP breakdown was inhib...

Degradation of 1,4-dichlorobenzene by a Pseudomonas sp.

A Pseudomonas species able to degrade p-dichlorobenzene as the sole source of carbon and energy was isolated by selective enrichment from activated sludge. The organism also grew well on chlorobenzene and benzene. Washed cells released chloride in stoichiometric amounts from o-, m-, and p-dichlorobenzene, 2,5-dichlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, 3-chlorocatechol, 4-chlorocatechol, and 3,6-dichloroca...

Metabolism of 4-chlorophenol by Azotobacter sp. GP1: structure of the meta cleavage product of 4-chlorocatechol.

A mutant strain of Azotobacter sp. GP1 converted 4-chlorophenol to 4-chlorocatechol under cometabolic conditions. Under the same conditions the wild-type strain accumulated a yellow compound, which by chemical and spectroscopic methods was identified as 5-chloro-2-hydroxy-6-oxohexadienoic acid (5-chloro-2-hydroxy-muconic semialdehyde). The structure of this compound indicates a meta-proximal cl...

Preliminary crystallographic analysis of 3-chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase of a new modified ortho-pathway from the Gram-positive Rhodococcus opacus 1CP grown on 2-chlorophenol.

3-Chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase (3-ClC1,2DO), a key enzyme of a new modified ortho-pathway, was isolated from a variant of the Gram-positive bacterium Rhodococcus opacus 1CP utilizing 2-chlorophenol as the sole energy and carbon source via a 3-chlorocatechol branch of a modified ortho-pathway. 3-ClC1,2DO catalyzes the intradiol cleavage of 3-chlorocatechol. The enzyme contains Fe(III) ions ess...
