Kinetic Study of the Oxidation of Catechols in the Presence of N-Methylaniline
The reactions of electrochemically generated o-quinones from oxidation of catechol and 4-methylcatechol as Michael acceptors with N-methylaniline as nucleophile have been studied using cyclic voltammetry.

Oxidation of Catechols at the Air–Water Interface by Nitrate Radicals
Abundant substituted catechols are emitted to, and created in, the atmosphere during wildfires and anthropogenic combustion and agro-industrial processes.

Antimicrobial Property of Halogenated Catechols.
Bacterial infection associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) bacteria is increasingly becoming a significant public health risk. Herein, we synthesized a series of halogenated dopamine methacrylamide (DMA), which contains a catechol side chain modified

Tyrosinase catalyzes the oxidation of phenols and catechols (o-diphenols) to o-quinones. The reactivities of o-quinones thus generated are responsible for oxidative browning of plant products, sclerotization of insect cuticle, defense reaction in ...

Fully biological production of adipic acid analogs from branched catechols
Microbial production of adipic acid from lignin-derived monomers, such as catechol, is a greener alternative to the petrochemical-based process. Here, we produced adipic acid from catechol using catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (CatA) and a muconic acid ...

Advances in 4-Hydroxyphenylacetate-3-hydroxylase Monooxygenase
Catechols have important applications in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and functional material industries. 4-hydroxyphenylacetate-3-hydroxylase (4HPA3H), a two-component enzyme system comprising HpaB (monooxygenase) and HpaC (FAD oxidoreductase ...

Copper-assisted oxidation of catechols into quinone derivatives
Catechols are ubiquitous substances often acting as antioxidants, thus of importance in a variety of biological processes. The Fenton and Haber–Weiss processes are thought to transform these molecules into aggressive reactive oxygen species (ROS), a ...

Imine-Based Catechols and o-Benzoquinones: Synthesis, Structure, and Features of Redox Behavior
Novel sterically hindered catechols of the type 3-(RN=CH)-4,6-DBCatH2 with iminoalkyl or iminoaryl groups in the third position of the aromatic ring have been synthesized and characterized in detail.
