Heterolysis of Dihydrogen by Silver Alkoxides and Fluorides.

Chemistry 21 , 10160-9, (2015)

Alkoxide-bridged disilver cations react with dihydrogen to form hydride-bridged cations, releasing free alcohol. Hydrogenolysis of neutral silver fluorides affords hydride-bridged disilver cations as their bifluoride salts. These reactions proceed most effici...

Kinetic and docking studies of phenol-based inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase isoforms I, II, IX and XII evidence a new binding mode within the enzyme active site.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 19 , 1381-9, (2011)

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) are inhibited by sulfonamides, inorganic anions, phenols, coumarins (acting as prodrugs) and polyamines. A novel class of CA inhibitors (CAIs), interacting with the CA isozymes I, II (cytosolic) and IX, XII (transmembrane...

Ozonolysis of lignin models in aqueous solution: anisole, 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene.

Environ. Sci. Technol. 43(16) , 6275-82, (2009)

The lignin models anisole, 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene were reacted with ozone in aqueous solution, and major products were identified and quantified with respect to ozone consumption when reference material was ava...

Decrease in glucose oxidation in isolated brown fat cells from rats due to tropolone and dimethoxybenzene.

Gen. Pharmacol. 12(1) , 47-50, (1981)

1. 1. Glucose conversion to carbon dioxide in control and insulin treated brown fat cells is reduced in the presence of tropolone and dimethoxybenzene. 2. 2. The effects of ortho-, meta- and para-dimethoxybenzene are similar to each other; all are more potent...

Oxidation of dimethoxylated aromatic compounds by lignin peroxidase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium.

Eur. J. Biochem. 237(1) , 45-57, (1996)

The stabilities of the cation radicals of veratryl alcohol, 3,4-dimethoxytoluene and 1,4-dimethoxybenzene were compared by monitoring the formation of dimeric products during the oxidation of these substrates by lignin peroxidase (LiP). LiP oxidized veratryl ...

Aerobic oxidative coupling of arenes and olefins through a biomimetic approach.

Chemistry 19(13) , 4140-5, (2013)

Arenes and electron-deficient olefins can be oxidatively coupled through a biomimetic Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed transformation. C-H activation of the arene partner is effected under reaction conditions of low catalyst loading, normal oxygen pressure, and using p-ben...

Mechanism of antitumoral activity of catechols in culture.

Biochem. Pharmacol. 36(4) , 417-25, (1987)

Cell lines Raji and K 562, lacking tyrosinase, and two melanotic human melanoma cell lines (IRE 1 and IRE 2), were exposed to concentrations from 5 X 10(-3) M to 10(-5) M of different phenols which are substrates of tyrosinase, i.e. l-dopa, dopamine, hydroqui...

Analysis of biogenic volatile organic compounds in zucchini flowers: identification of scent sources.

J. Chem. Ecol. 31(10) , 2309-22, (2005)

An analytical method has been applied to determine volatile organic compounds in zucchini flowers. In a first step, the analytical method was applied to characterize the main scents emitted by whole male and female living flowers of three main commercial cult...

Nitration of veratryl alcohol by lignin peroxidase and tetranitromethane.

Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 352(1) , 121-9, (1998)

Lignin peroxidase (LiP), from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, in the presence of H2O2 and tetranitromethane (TNM), oxidizes veratryl (3,4-dimethoxybenzyl) alcohol (VA) (I) to veratraldehyde (IV), 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl alcohol (V), and 3,4-dimethoxy-nitrobe...

Selective monoiodination of aromatic compounds with electrochemically generated I+ using micromixing.

Chem. Commun. (Camb.) (36) , 3794-6, (2006)

Selective monoiodination of aromatic compounds such as dimethoxybenzene has been successfully achieved with I+, which is generated by anodic oxidation of I2 in acetonitrile, using micromixing.
