Selenoglucosinolates: Synthesis and Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Kjaer, Anders,Skrydstrup, Troels
, p. 29 - 33 (2007/10/02)
The first selenoglucosinolates have been synthesized and characterized.The synthetic selenium analogues of benzyl- and methylglucosinolate both undergo a facile, ascorbate-activated hydrolysis, catalyzed by an enzyme preparation ('myrosin') traditionally used for hydrolyzing glucosinolates.Benzyl and methyl isoselenocyanates are identified and characterized as products of the enzymatic hydrolysis.
