Synthetic amavadine models, [V(HIDPA) 2 ] 22 and [V(HIDA) 2 ] 22 [where HIDPA and HIDA stand for the basic forms of 2,2A-(hydroxyimino)dipropionic and 2,2A-(hydroxyimino)diacetic acid, respectively], exhibit haloperoxidase-or peroxidase-type activities, and act as catalysts for the selective peroxidative monohalogenation, hydroxylation or oxo-functionalization of alkanes or aromatic compounds such as benzene and mesitylene at room temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
