Application


  • Aryl-alcohol oxidase involved in lignin degradation: a mechanistic study based on steady and pre-steady state kinetics and primary and solvent isotope effects with two alcohol substrates.: The study focuses on the mechanistic understanding of aryl-alcohol oxidase in lignin degradation, utilizing p-Anisaldehyde as a model substrate to investigate enzyme kinetics and isotope effects. (Ferreira et al., 2009).

Anisaldehyde (p-methoxybenzaldehyde) was previously reported to inhibit the tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) noncompetitively as long as the enzyme activity was monitored by measuring dopachrome formation. However, anisaldehyde did not inhibit this oxidation if a longer reaction time was observed

It has often been proposed that nectarless deceptive orchid species exploit naïve pollinators in search of food before they learn to avoid their flowers, and that intraspecific floral trait polymorphism, often noted in this plant group, could prolong the time

A novel approach to generate Au-containing all-carbon 1,3-dipoles is developed via an unprecedented migration-fragmentation of ketals/acetals. These in situ generated dipoles undergo rapid [3+2] cycloaddition under mild conditions with various enones/enals, electron-rich aromatic aldehydes, and N-benzylindole, leading to flexible formation

In this study, five compounds, lupeol (1), epilupeol (2), β-sitosterol (3), stigmasterol (4) and p-methoxybenzaldehyde (5) were isolated from the petroleum ether and dichloromethane fractions of a methanolic extract of the stem bark of Delonix regia. Antimicrobial screening of the

Intermolecular (13)C kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) for the Roush allylboration of p-anisaldehyde were determined using a novel approach. The experimental (13)C KIEs fit qualitatively with the expected rate-limiting cyclic transition state, but they are far higher than theoretical predictions based
