CF3-Bis-TEMPO-Vis: New Visible Light Active Bis-Benzimidazolequinone Alkoxyamine
Alkoxyamines of TEMPO usually dissociate thermally at >100 °C; however, room temperature homolysis, activated by visible light, occurs with benzimidazolequinone derivatives.

Quinone Reductase 2 Is a Catechol Quinone Reductase [PDF]
The functions of quinone reductase 2 have eluded researchers for decades even though a genetic polymorphism is associated with various neurological disorders. Employing enzymatic studies using adrenochrome as a substrate, we show that quinone reductase 2 is specific for the reduction of adrenochrome, whereas quinone reductase 1 shows no activity.
