On the Mechanism of Cytochrome P450-Catalyzed Oxidations: Reaction of a New Enzyme Model with a Radical Clock
Publication History
Publication Date:
21 April 2005 (online)

Abstract
trans-2-Phenyl-methylcyclopropane was oxidized using PhIO and a P450 enzyme model carrying a SO3 - ligand coordinating to iron. Analysis of the product distribution revealed a ratio of 9:1 of the non-rearranged cyclopropyl methanol 18 over 1,1-allyl phenyl methanol 16. Given the rate of rearrangement k = 1.8·1011 sec-1 of the phenyl cyclopropyl methyl radical 14 in solution, the life time of the intermediate radical cluster I C-H can be calculated as 625 fsec. The hydroxylation proceeds by concerted non-synchronous ‘O’-insertion into the C-H bond of the methyl group.
