In 2017,Sun, Ying-Ji; Li, Pei; Huang, Qian-Qian; Zhang, Jian-Jun; Itoh, Shinobu published 《Dioxygenation of Flavonol Catalyzed by Copper(II) Complexes Supported by Carboxylate-Containing Ligands: Structural and Functional Models of Quercetin 2,4-Dioxygenase》.European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry published the findings.SDS of cas: 1129-28-8 The information in the text is summarized as follows:
To obtain insights into the role of the carboxylate group of Glu73 in the active site of quercetin 2,4-dioxygenase (2,4-QD), the copper(II) complexes [CuIILn(AcO)] [1 (Ln = L1), 2 (Ln = L2), 3 (Ln = L3), and 4 (Ln = L4)] supported by carboxylate-containing ligands [L1H = 2-{[bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]methyl}benzoic acid; L2H = 3-{[bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]methyl}benzoic acid,; L3H = 2-({bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]amino}methyl)benzoic acid; L4H = 3-({bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]amino}methyl)benzoic acid] as well as the ternary CuII flavonolate (fla-) complexes [CuIILn(fla)] [5 (Ln = L1), 6 (Ln = L2), 7 (Ln = L3), and 8 (Ln = L4)] were synthesized and characterized as structural and functional models for the active site of 2,4-QD. The ternary complexes [CuIILn(fla)] showed different reactivities in the dioxygenation of bound flavonolate to benzoic acid, salicylic acid, and N,N-dimethylbenzamide at 75-90° (single-turnover reaction) in the order 5 >> 7 > 8 ≈ 6. A similar reactivity tendency was found in the catalytic dioxygenation of the substrate flavonol (multiturnover reaction) by the binary complexes. The different reactivities of the copper complexes could be attributed to the different Lewis acidities of the copper(II) ions induced by the different coordination environments of the ligands. The results will provide important insights into the pivotal catalytic role of the carboxylate group of Glu73 in 2,4-QD (no data). In the experiment, the researchers used Methyl 3-(bromomethyl)benzoate(cas: 1129-28-8SDS of cas: 1129-28-8)
Methyl 3-(bromomethyl)benzoate(cas: 1129-28-8) belongs to organobromine compounds.Most of the natural organobromine compounds are produced by marine organisms , and several brominated metabolites with antibacterial , antitumor , antiviral , and antifungal activity have been isolated from seaweed, sponges, corals, molluscs, and others. Moreover, several studies demonstrate that the average proportion of bromine in drugs is significantly higher than that in natural products. SDS of cas: 1129-28-8
