ABSTRACT Under secondary metabolic conditions, the lignin-degrading basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium mineralizes 2,4,6-trichlorophenol. The pathway for the degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol has been elucidated by the characterization of fungal metabolites and oxidation products generated by purified lignin peroxidase (LiP) and manganese peroxidase (MnP). The multistep pathway is initiated by a LiP- or MnP-catalyzed oxidative dechlorination reaction to produce 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone. The quinone is reduced to 2,6-dichloro-1,4-dihydroxybenzene, which is reductively dechlorinated to yield 2-chloro-1,4-dihydroxybenzene. The latter is degraded further by one of two parallel pathways: it either undergoes further reductive dechlorination to yield 1,4-hydroquinone, which isortho-hydroxylated to produce 1,2,4-trihydroxybenzene, or is hydroxylated to yield 5-chloro-1,2,4-trihydroxybenzene, which is reductively dechlorinated to produce the common key metabolite 1,2,4-trihydroxybenzene. Presumably, the latter is ring cleaved with subsequent degradation to CO2. In this pathway, the chlorine at C-4 is oxidatively dechlorinated, whereas the other chlorines are removed by a reductive process in which chlorine is replaced by hydrogen. Apparently, all three chlorine atoms are removed prior to ring cleavage. To our knowledge, this is the first reported example of aromatic reductive dechlorination by a eukaryote.

1. An organism isolated from sewage and identified as an Alcaligenes sp. utilized benzenesulphonate, toluene-p-sulphonate or phenylethane-p-sulphonate as sole source of carbon and energy for growth. Higher alkylbenzenesulphonate homologues and the hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, phenylethane and 1-phenyldodecane were not utilized. 2. 2-Phenylpropanesulphonate was metabolized to 4-isopropylcatechol. 3. 1-Phenylpropanesulphonate was metabolized to an ortho-diol, which was tentatively identified, in the absence of an authentic specimen, as 4-n-propylcatechol. 4. In the presence of 4-isopropylcatechol, which inhibited catechol 2,3-dioxygenase, 4-ethylcatechol accumulated in cultures growing on phenylethane-p-sulphonate. 5. Authentic samples of catechol, 3-methylcatechol, 4-methylcatechol, 4-ethylcatechol and 3-isopropylcatechol were oxidized by heat-treated extracts to the corresponding 2-hydroxyalkylmuconic semialdehydes. Ring cleavage occurred between C-2 and C-3. 6. The catechol derived from 1-phenylpropanesulphonate was oxygenated by catechol 2,3-dioxygenase to a compound with all the properties of a 2-hydroxyalkylmuconic semialdehyde, but it was not rigorously identified. 7. The catechol 2,3-dioxygenase induced by growth on benzenesulphonate, toluene-p-sulphonate or phenylethane-p-sulphonate showed a constant ratio of specific activities with catechol, 3-methylcatechol, 4-methylcatechol and 4-ethylcatechol that was independent of the growth substrate. At 60°C, activity towards these substrates declined at an identical first-order rate. 8. Enzymes of the ‘ortho’ pathway of catechol metabolism were present in small amounts in cells grown on benzenesulphonate, toluene-p-sulphonate or phenylethane-p-sulphonate. 9. The catechol 1,2-dioxygenase oxidized the alkylcatechols, but the rates and the total extents of oxidation were less than for catechol itself. The oxidation products of these alkylcatechols were not further metabolized.

Oxidations of 2,2-dialkyl and spiro[1,3-benzodithiole-2,1'-cycloalkanes] with lead tetraacetate gave mainly sulfoxides and disulfoxides. The stereochemistry of these products was elucidated by n.m.r. spectroscopy. Oxidation of 2-methyl-2-aryl derivatives gave sulfoxides as minor products; here the main products were derived from attack on the methyl group forming acetoxy, diacetoxy, formyl and carboxylic acid derivatives and ring cleavage products. 2,2-Diaryl derivatives also formed small amounts of sulfoxides but ring cleavage products were predominant. Monosubstituted benzodithioles were very reactive and produced a variety of oxidation products, mostly unidentified.

Photo-Fenton-like treatment of the commercially important naphthalene sulphonate K-acid (2-naphthylamine-3,6,8-trisulphonic acid) was investigated using UV-C, UV-A and visible light irradiation. Changes in toxicity patterns were followed by the Vibrio fischeri bioassay. Rapid and complete degradation of K-acid accompanied with nearly complete oxidation and mineralization rates (>90%) were achieved for all studied irradiation types. On the other hand, detoxification was rather limited and did not change significantly during photo-Fenton-like treatment. Several oxidation products could be identified via liquid chromatograph–mass spectrometer analyses, such as desulphonated and hydroxylated naphthalene derivatives, quinones, and ring-opening as well as dimerization products. Photo-Fenton-like treatment of K-acid with UV-C, UV-A and visible light irradiation occurred through a series of hydroxylation and desulphonation reactions, followed by ring cleavage. A common degradation pathway for photo-Fenton-like treatment of K-acid using different irradiation types was proposed.

Abstract Dioxygenase Model, Copper, Catechol The complex (3-n-nonylcatecholato)(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II) reacts with molecular oxygen to give an isomeric mixture of 2-n-nonylmuconic acid and several secondary oxidation products. The catecholato ligand is oxidatively cleaved in an intradiol fashion reminescent of the reactions catalyzed by intradiol aromatic dioxygenases. The 1,10-phenanthroline ligand can be quantitatively recovered and is not oxidized. In addition to characterization of oxidation products, the kinetics of oxygen consumption have been analyzed. The rate law for oxygen uptake is -d[O2]/dt = k[O2] [copper]2 .

SummaryThe anticoagulant activity of 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives has been estimated by one step Quick’s method. The derivatives contained the following groups in the para position of benzylidene residue: NCS- (I), CH3-S- (II), CH3-SO-(III), CH3-S02- (IV), C2H5-S- (V), C2H5-SO- (VI), C2H5-S02- (VII). All these compounds were much more active than 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin itself.Compounds possessing the ethyl chain at the sulphur atom (V, VI, VII) were more active than methyl homologues (II, III, IV). Comparison of the activity of the series of thio-, sulphoxy-, and sulphonyl-derivatives showed that among methyl- and ethyl-derivatives those with the sulphoxy grouping (III, VI) displayed the greatest anticoagulant activity. The action of sulphonyl (IV, VII) and thio-derivatives (II, V) was weaker and shortest. The derivative with the NCS-group (I) possessed a relatively the lowest activity among the investigated compounds. 3.3’-(p-Ethylsulphoxybenzyl-idene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin (VI), with distinct biological activity reached about ½ of dicoumarol activity.

We report detailed mechanistic investigations of an iron-based catalyst system, which allows the α-C-H oxidation of a wide variety of amines, including acyclic tertiary aliphatic amines, to afford dealkylated or amide products. In contrast to other catalysts that affect α-C-H oxidations of tertiary amines, the system under investigation employs exclusively peroxy esters as oxidants. More common oxidants (e.g. tBuOOH) previously reported to affect amine oxidations via free radical pathways do not provide amine α-C-H oxidation products in combination with the herein described catalyst system. Motivated by this difference in reactivity to more common free radical systems, the investigations described herein employ initial rate kinetics, kinetic profiling, Eyring studies, kinetic isotope effect studies, Hammett studies, ligand coordination studies, and EPR studies to shed light on the Fe catalyst system. The obtained data suggest that the catalytic mechanism proceeds through C-H abstraction at a coordinated substrate molecule. This rate-determining step occurs either at an Fe(IV) oxo pathway or a 2-electron pathway at a Fe(II) intermediate with bound oxidant. We further show via kinetic profiling and EPR studies that catalyst activation follows a radical pathway, which is initiated by hydrolysis of PhCO3 tBu to tBuOOH in the reaction mixture. Overall, the obtained mechanistic data support a non-classical, Fe catalyzed pathway that requires substrate binding, thus inducing selectivity for α-C-H functionalization.<br>
