Cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation of pentafluorophenol to tetrafluorobenzoquinone as the primary reaction product.

Chem. Res. Toxicol. 6(5) , 674-80, (1993)

In the present study the oxidative dehalogenation of a para-halogenated phenol was studied using pentafluorophenol and its non-para-halogenated analogue 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenol as model compounds. 19F NMR was used to characterize the metabolite patterns. In...

Detection and mechanistic investigation of halogenated benzoquinone induced DNA damage by photoelectrochemical DNA sensor.

Anal. Bioanal. Chem 397(6) , 2395-400, (2010)

Halogenated phenols are widely used as biocides and are considered to be possibly carcinogenic to humans. In this report, a previously developed photoelectrochemical DNA sensor was employed to investigate DNA damage induced by tetra-halogenated quinones, the ...

Molecular mechanism for metal-independent production of hydroxyl radicals by hydrogen peroxide and halogenated quinones.

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 104(45) , 17575-8, (2007)

We have shown previously that hydroxyl radicals (HO*) can be produced by H2O2 and halogenated quinones, independent of transition metal ions; however, the underlying molecular mechanism is still unclear. In the present study, using the electron spin resonance...

Self-promoted electron transfer from cobalt(II) porphyrin to p-fluoranil to produce a dimer radical anion-cobalt(III) porphyrin complex.

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 125(41) , 12416-7, (2003)

Self-promoted electron transfer from a cobalt(II) porphyrin [Co(II)OEP] to p-fluoranil (F4Q) occurs, exhibiting a second-order dependence of the electron-transfer rate with respect to the F4Q concentration due to the formation of a strong complex between the ...
