Evidence from mechanistic probes for distinct hydroperoxide rearrangement mechanisms in the intradiol and extradiol catechol dioxygenases.
Meite Xin,Timothy D. H. Bugg +1 more
TL;DR: Results imply different mechanisms for the Criegee rearrangement steps of intradiol and extradiol catechol dioxygenases: a direct 1,2-alkenyl migration for extradiol cleavage and an O-O homolytic cleavage mechanism for intradiola cleavage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomimetic Formation of 2-Tropolones by Dioxygenase-Catalysed Ring Expansion of Substituted 2,4-Cyclohexadienones
Meite Xin,Timothy D. H. Bugg +1 more
TL;DR: Treatment of 6‐hydroxy‐6‐hydroxymethylcyclohexa‐2,4‐dienone with the non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent extradiol catechol dioxygenase MhpB from Escherichia coli results in the formation of the 2‐tropolone ring‐expansion product through a pinacol‐type rearrangement.
