Sunzvnavy Anaerobic photolysis of the newly synthesised 8-methoxy-5'-deoxy-5'-adenosylco5alamin, methylcobalamin or methyl(aquo)cobaloxime (but not coenzyme Bl,) causes the transformation of HOCH,CH,X (X = NH, or OH) into MeCHO and the pH dependence of yield parallels that obtained in *OH induced reactions ; the results are interpreted in terms of an initial hydrogen atom abstraction from substrate by a carbon-centred radical.
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.
