New Advances in Chemical Research, May 2021. The prevalence of solvent effects has motivated developing quantitative kinetic, and theoretical assessments of solvent structures and their interactions with reaction intermediates. In an article, author is Combourieu, B, once mentioned the application of 90-11-9, Name is 1-Bromonaphthalene, molecular formula is C10H7Br, molecular weight is 207.07, MDL number is MFCD00003868, category is thiomorpholine. Now introduce a scientific discovery about this category, Name: 1-Bromonaphthalene.
Spectrophotometric assays of Mycobacterium aurum MO1 cells extracts gave evidence of a soluble cytochrome P450, involved in the degradative pathway of morpholine, a waste product from the chemical industry. In order to get further information, the kinetics of the biodegradation of the sulfur analogue thiomorpholine was monitored by using in situ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). This technique allowed the identification of two intermediates: the sulfoxide of thiomorpholine resulting from S-oxidation and thiodiglycolic acid owing to ring cleavage. The S-oxidation (S –> SO) represents one of the well-known reactions catalyzed by cytochromes P450. The inhibitory effect of metyrapone, a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, on the thiomorpholine and morpholine degradative abilities of M. aurum MO1 confirmed the involvement of a cytochrome P450. These results and the decrease of the rate of formation of the first intermediate during the morpholine degradation, 2-(2-aminoethoxy) acetate, proved the key role of the cytochrome P450 in the early events of the biodegradation, i.e, in the C-N bond cleavage.
