Rapid halogen substitution and dibenzodioxin formation during tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of 4-halocatechols

, p. 350 - 356 (2011)
4-Fluoro-1,2-benzoquinone, generated by tyrosinase oxidation of 4-fluorocatechol in aqueous buffer, rapidly undergoes substitution by O-nucleophiles (water or catechols) with release of fluoride. 4-Chloro- and 4-bromocatechol behave similarly. The reactions, which have toxicological implications, have been monitored by spectrophotometry and HPLC/MS, and intermediate and final products, including dibenzodioxins, identified.

Despite their broad utility, the synthesis of ortho-quinones remains a significant challenge, in particular, access to electron-deficient derivatives remains an unsolved problem. Reported here is the first general method for the synthesis of electron-deficient ortho-quinones by direct oxidation of phenols. The reaction is enabled by a novel bidentate nitrogen-ligated iodine(V) reagent, a previously unexplored class of compounds which we have termed Bi(N)-HVIs. The reaction is extremely general and proceeds with excellent regioselectivity for the ortho over para isomer. Functionalization of the ortho-quinone products was examined, resulting in a facile one-pot synthesis of catechols, as well as the incorporation of a variety of heteroatom nucleophiles. This method represents the first synthetic application of Bi(N)-HVIs and demonstrates their potential as a platform for the further development of highly reactive, but also highly tunable, I(V) reagents.

A label-free in situ method to monitor reactions in real time by using fluorescent supramolecular chemosensors based on cucurbit[8]uril is presented. It allows sensing of enzymatic activity, inhibitor and activator screening, and analyte detection with unprecedented versatility and high sensitivity.

experimental part, p. 647 - 655 (2012/08/08)
We study the suicide inactivation of tyrosinase acting on o-aminophenols and aromatic o-diamines and compare the results with those obtained for the corresponding o-diphenols. The catalytic constants follow the order aromatic o-diamines max/KmS, follows this order: o-diphenols > o-aminophenols > aromatic o-diamines.
Studies of the competing rates of catechol oxidation and suicide inactivation of tyrosinase
Ramsden, Christopher A.,Riley, Patrick A.
experimental part, p. 248 - 254 (2011/02/22)
Tyrosinase oxidation of catechols to ortho-quinones is accompanied by suicide inactivation of the enzyme. The rates of these competing processes vary and depend on the nature of ring substituents. For a series of 4-substituted catechols the relationships between structure and reaction rates have been examined using multiple regression. Significant but different structure-rate relationships were found for each process. The oxidation rate (k1) is greatest for short hydrophobic substituents; there is an optimum substituent hydrophobicity (π 0.7) for the rate of inactivation (k2). ARKAT USA, Inc.
Redox Interactions of Cr(VI) and Substituted Phenols: Products and Mechanism
Elovitz, Michael S.,Fish, William
, p. 1933 - 1943 (2007/10/03)
The mechanisms of aqueous oxidation-reduction interactions between Cr(VI) and substituted phenols (RArOH) were characterized by kinetic analysis and determinations of reaction products and intermediates. A rapid, peroxidative equilibrium between HCrO4(-) and RArOH forms chromate ester intermediates, as verified by spectroscopy. The subsequent rate-limiting ester decomposition proceeds via innersphere electron transfer. The overall rate dependence on [H(+)] is well accounted for by three parallel redox pathways involving zero, one, and two protons. The two-proton pathway dominates at pH = 5. The parallel reaction rate expression was fitted to data for 4-methyl-, 4-methoxy-, 2,6-dimethoxy-, and 3,4-dimethoxyphenol for pH 1-6. Beside accurately predicting rates for the calibrated conditions, the model predicts a sharp decline in rates at pH >= 6. Rates subsequently measured at pH 7 agreed well with those calculated a priori. Such predictions suggest that the proposed mechanism is robust and accurate. Rate constants were correlated with Hammett-type substituent parameters. Reaction products indicated both one- and two-electron pathways.
