Microperoxidase/H2O2-mediated alkoxylating dehalogenation of halophenol derivatives in alcoholic media.

چکیده
The results of this study report the H2O2-driven microperoxidase-8 (MP8)-catalyzed dehalogenation of halophenols such as 4-fluorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, 4-bromophenol, and 2-fluorophenol in alcoholic solvents. In methanol, the conversion of the para-halophenols and 2-fluorophenol to, respectively, 4-methoxyphenol and 2-methoxyphenol, as the major dehalogenated products is observed. In ethanol, 4-ethoxyphenol is the principal dehalogenated product formed from 4-fluorophenol. Two mechanisms are suggested for this MP8-dependent alkoxylating dehalogenation reaction. In one of these mechanisms the oxene resonant form of compound I of MP8 is suggested to react with methanol forming a cofactor-peroxide-alkyl intermediate. This intermediate reacts with the reactive pi-electrons of the substrate, leading to the formation of the alkoxyphenols and the release of the fluorine substituent as fluoride anion.

Single turnover studies of oxidative halophenol dehalogenation by horseradish peroxidase reveal a mechanism involving two consecutive one electron steps: toward a functional halophenol bioremediation catalyst. By: Suganya Sumithran,
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalyzes the oxidative para-dechlorination of the environmental pollutant/carcinogen 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP). A possible mechanism for this reaction is a direct oxygen atom transfer from HRP compound I (HRP I) to trichlorophenol to generate 2,6-dichloro 1,4-benzoquinone, a two-electron transfer process. An alternative mechanism involves two consecutive on...

In view of the role ascribed to the peroxidatic activity of degradation products of cytochrome c (cyt c) in the processes of apoptosis, we investigate the catalytic potential of heme and of the cyt c derived heme peptide MP-11 to catalyse the cathodic reduction of hydrogen peroxide and to oxidize aromatic compounds. In order to check whether cyt c has an enzymatic activity in the native state w...

Vascular endothelial cells produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) during the process of energy metabolism in aerobic respiration. A growing body of evidence indicates that excessive ROS is implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis. The newly synthesized halophenol, 2,4',5'-trihydroxyl-5,2'-dibromo diphenylmethanone (TDD), exhibits antioxidative and cytop...
