Structural characterization of carane derivative stereoisomers - Potent local anesthetics
2002
The paper reports on structural investigation and phase analysis of a newly synthesized potent local anesthetic with chiral molecular structure. Absolute structure and absolute configuration on four chiral centres was determined using microcrystalline single-crystal difracti on with anomalous scattering of X-ray radiation azimuthal scan technique. Phase analysis for new compound (K P23SS) and its epimer (K P23 RS) was carried out using classical and synchrotron radiation powder difraction. Enantiopurity of the bulk material was verifed for both isomers by comparison of experimental and simulated high- resolution powder difraction diagrams. The presence of two new polymorphic phases of K P23…
Indirect oxidation of amino acid phenylhydrazides by mushroom tyrosinase.
2006
We have investigated oxidation of amino acid phenylhydrazides by mushroom tyrosinase in the presence of 4-tert-butylcatechol and N-acetyl-l-tyrosine. Spectrophotometric measurements showed gradual disappearance of 4-tert-butyl-o-benzoquinone, generated by oxidation of 4-tert-butylcatechol with sodium periodate, after addition of amino acid phenylhydrazides. However, the presence of the phenylhydrazides did not influence the concentration of 4-tert-butyl-o-benzoquinone formed during enzymatic oxidation. Oxygen consumption measurements demonstrated that in a mixture both compounds were oxidized but the reaction rate was proportional to the concentration of the catechol. In the oxidation of N-…
