Structural Diversity of Peroxidase-Catalyzed Oxidation Products of o-Methoxyphenols
The biocatalytic oxidation of o-methoxyphenolic compounds led to a variety of oligophenols (dimers to pentamers) and some of their oxidation products. The reaction was carried out in an aqueous medium at room temperature with hydrogen peroxide as the terminal oxidant in a facile and green route to p...

Summary: | The biocatalytic oxidation of o-methoxyphenolic compounds led to a variety of oligophenols (dimers to pentamers) and some of their oxidation products. The reaction was carried out in an aqueous medium at room temperature with hydrogen peroxide as the terminal oxidant in a facile and green route to potentially bioactive compounds. Detailed structural information on the products of peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of o-methoxyphenols is presented for the first time. |
