The double N-arylation of primary amines with 2,2'-biphenylylene ditriflates was investigated for the synthesis of multisubstituted carbazoles. Palladium complexes supported by 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2'-methylbiphenyl or Xantphos [4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene] were found to be efficient catalysts for the reaction. The catalysts allow the use of

1. 14C-Phenol was metabolized by rat bone marrow homogenate and H2O2. The homogenate catalyst, however, was inactivated by preincubation with H2O2, presumably due to inactivation of the enzyme(s) involved in phenol metabolism. 2. The majority of the metabolized 14C-phenol was

The neolignans, magnolol 1 and honokiol 2 have been reported to inhibit the growth of several tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo. The chemical structure of magnolol and honokiol consists of biphenyl skeleton with phenolic and allylic functionalities.

Phenoxyl radicals generated pulse radiolytically by the reaction of N.3 with Gly-Tyr decay biomolecularly (2k = 4.7 X 10(8)M-1 s-1) with efficient formation of 2,2'-dimers, which enolize rapidly (k = 2.7 X 10(4) s-1) to produce the 2,2'-biphenolic product. The

Pseudomonas sp. strain HBP1 was found to grow on 2-hydroxy- and 2,2'-dihydroxy-biphenyl as the sole carbon and energy sources. The first step in the degradation of these compounds was catalyzed by an NADH-dependent monooxygenase. The enzyme inserted a hydroxyl group
