The Reaction of m-Xylene with Carbon Monoxide under Pressure

The Reaction of Cytochrome Oxidase with Carbon Monoxide*

The participation of molecular oxygen in biological oxidations is catalyzed by an enzyme which has been called-a variety of names starting with Atmungsfemzent by Warburg (18) to the currently employed term of cytochrome oxidase proposed by Keilin and Hartree (11). Presumably the enzyme functions by first combining with molecular oxygen and then becoming oxidized by it. As first shown by Warburg...

The reaction of hemoglobin Zürich with oxygen and carbon monoxide.

The present paper reports a spectroscopic and kinetic study of the reaction with oxygen and carbon monoxide of (a) the abnormal hemoglobin Zürich (beta 63, E7 His leads to Arg), (b) its isolated abnormal chains (beta ZH), and (c) a reconstituted hybrid containing cobalt instead of iron on the normal alpha chains (Co alpha)2-(Fe beta ZH)2. The abnormal beta ZH chains, isolated from hemoglobin Zü...

Ignition Kinetics of Carbon Monoxide - Oxygen Reaction

Iron-catalyzed carbonylative Suzuki reactions under atmospheric pressure of carbon monoxide.

The first highly effective iron-catalyzed carbonylative Suzuki reaction has been developed. Substrates with electron-donating or electron-withdrawing functionality, ortho-substitution, as well as active groups proceeded smoothly, affording desired products in high yields. This protocol is economical, environmentally benign and practical for the synthesis of biaryl ketones.

Life with carbon monoxide.

This review focuses on how microbes live on CO as a sole source of carbon and energy and with CO by generating carbon monoxide as a metabolic intermediate. The use of CO is a property of organisms that use the Wood-L jungdahl pathway of autotrophic growth. The review discusses when CO metabolism originated, when and how it was discovered, and what properties of CO are ideal for microbial growth...
