first row transition metal complexes of phthalocyanine are employed as catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene and cyclooctene using iodosylbenzene and pentafluoroiodosyl benzene. the catalysis was performed in dichloromethane: methanol:water (80:18:2) solvent mixture.  the products of the catalysis for cyclohexene are epoxycyclohexane, 2-cyclohexene-1-ol and 2-cyclohexene-1-one whereas for ...

Chance (1) has proposed that the peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of diiydroxyfumaric acid proceeds in two steps. The first step is the oxidation of the hydrogen donor by oxygen, the reaction being catalyzed by a manganese-activated peroxidase and accompanied by the production of hydrogen peroxide. The second step is the oxidation of additional hydrogen donor by hydrogen peroxide, this reaction a...

Ferric leghemoglobin reductase (FLbR) from soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) nodules catalyzed oxidation of NADH, reduction of ferric leghemoglobin (Lb(+3)), and reduction of dichloroindophenol (diaphorase activity). None of these reactions was detectable when O(2) was removed from the reaction system, but all were restored upon readdition of O(2). In the absence of exogenous electron carriers an...

Kinetics of iron(II)and manganese(II)-catalyzed oxidation of S(IV) in seawater were studied here to provide theoretical support for the flue gas desulfurization process (SFGD). Experiments were carried out with artificial seawater and acetic buffer. Results indicated that the reaction order with respect to dissolved oxygen is zero. However, the reaction order with respect to S(IV) is variable: ...

Unlike lactoperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase, thyroid peroxidase catalyzed the oxidation of hydroquinone mostly by way of 2-electron transfer. This conclusion could be derived from three independent experiments: ESR measurements of p-benzosemiquinone, trapping the unpaired electron by cytochrome c, and spectrophotometric analysis of catalytic intermediates of the enzymes. The 1-electron fl...

Diethylstilbestrol is carcinogenic in rodents and in humans and its peroxidatic oxidation in utero has been associated with its carcinogenic activity. Horseradish peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of [14C]diethylstilbestrol and [14C]diethylstilbestrol analogs induced binding of radiolabel to DNA only when the compound contained a free hydroxy group (Metzler, M., and Epe, B. (1984) Chem. Biol. Inte...

High pressure liquid chromatographic systems capable of resolving at least 28 known and potential metabolites of 17@-hydroxy-4-androsten-3-one (testosterone) and 4-androstene-3,17-dione (androstenedione) were used to quantitatively assess the metabolism of the two steroids in monooxygenase systems reconstituted with five purified rat liver cytochrome P-450 isozymes. Cytochromes P-450a, -b, -c, ...

for the first time, dioxomolybdenum(vi) complex with the general formula [moo2l2] containing a n-o bidentate ligands (hl=2-(o-aminophenyl)- benzimidazole) has been used for the oxidation of sulfides. elemental analyses (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen), ft-ir and uv-visble spectra and 1hnmr analysis agree well with the proposed stoicheiometry of the complex [moo2l2].  a variety of sulfides were smoo...
