Aniline dioxygenase is a multicomponent Rieske nonheme-iron dioxygenase enzyme isolated from Acinetobacter sp. strain YAA. Saturation mutagenesis of the substrate-binding pocket residues, which were identified using a homology model of the alpha subunit of the terminal dioxygenase (AtdA3), was used to probe the molecular determinants of AtdA substrate specificity. The V205A mutation widened the...

1. N-Hydroxylation of aniline and 4-chloroaniline was quantified in rainbow trout microsomal preparations using h.p.l.c.-liquid scintillation methods. Radioactive phenylhydroxylamine and 4-chlorophenylhydroxylamine metabolites were identified by co-elution with non-labelled standards. The method provided resolution of metabolite standards, and quantification of both N-hydroxylated metabolites w...

An electrochemical study of two water-soluble aniline derivatives, N-(3-sulfopropyl) aniline (AnPS) and N-(3-sulfopropyl) p-aminodiphenylamine (DAnPS), in aqueous acidic electrolytic solutions containing different kinds of doping anions (Cl (-), SO(4) (2-), and ClO(4) (-)) was carried out. At sufficiently high anodic potential, the sulfonated aniline derivatives undergo oxidation processes yiel...

The title reactions in water are subjected to a kinetic investigation. Under excess amine, pseudofirst-order rate coefficients (kobsd) are obtained. Plots of kobsd against aniline concentration are linear, with kN as the slope. The Brønsted-type plot (log kN vs anilinium pKa) is linear with slope 0.7, consistent with a concerted mechanism. By comparison of these reactions with others, it is con...

The pseudo-four component click synthesis of dibenzylated 1,2,3-triazoles derived from aniline is reported. The cycloaddition of sodium azide to N-(prop-2-ynyl)-benzenamine (I) in the presence of equimolar amounts of p-substituted benzyl derivatives, yields a mixture of mono- and dibenzylated 1,2,3-triazoles. When two equivalents of the benzyl derivative are added to the multicomponent reaction...

New 1,2,4-triazole colorants were obtained, in high yields, by coupling 3-ethylthio-5-cyanomethyl-4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole (1) with diazotized aniline derivatives 2, 4 and 6. The azo dyes prepared in this work may exist in three tautomeric forms. We found that the tautomerism is influenced mainly by the nature of substituent at the para position of the aniline coupling component. This tautomeris...

In the title compound, C(14)H(14)N(2)O(2), the angle between the mean plane of the N-methyl-3-nitro-aniline system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0185 Å) and the p-tolyl unit is 89.79 (4)°. In the crystal, hydrogen-bonded chains running along [10-1] are generated by the linking of neighbouring mol-ecules via N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the 3-nitro-aniline systems and forming R(2) (2)(8) mot...
