Biological activation of 1,3-butadiene to vinyl oxirane by rat liver microsomes and expiration of the reactive metabolite by exposed rats.
1983
When 1,3-butadiene is incubated with rat liver microsomes and NADPH both enantiomers of vinyl oxirane are formed, the amount of epoxide being dependent on incubation time, microsomal protein, and substrate concentration. Inhibition by SKF 525 A or dithiocarb as well as induction by pretreatment with phenobarbital or 20-methylcholanthrene suggest participation of cytochrome P-450 in this reaction. The amount of epoxide is enhanced by addition of 1,1,1-trichloropropene oxide and reduced by glutathione, especially in the presence of hepatic cytosol. When rats are exposed to 1,3-butadiene in a closed chamber (conditions of maximal metabolism) vinyl oxirane is exhaled and can be quantitatively d…
Enantiomerization of an inherently chiral resorcarene derivative: determination of the interconversion barrier by computer simulation of the dynamic …
2001
Abstract The inherently chiral tetrabenzoxazine resorcarene derivative 1 shows characteristic plateau-formation during enantioselective HPLC separation on the chiral stationary phase Chiralpak AD. By computer assisted peak form analysis of the elution profiles, obtained from temperature dependent dynamic HPLC (DHPLC) experiments, with ChromWin, the enantiomerization barrier Δ G # (298 K)=92±2 kJ mol −1 and the activation parameters Δ H # =53.0±1.8 kJ mol −1 and Δ S # =−131±14 J (K mol) −1 were determined.
