Abstract

The reactions of peroxynitrite with a variety of organic molecules which include a biologically important functionality have been examined to construct a simple model for the peroxynitrite- induced in vivo transformations as well as a chemical probe for the active species involved therein. Phenols were found to undergo hydroxylation, nitration, oxidative dimerization, and oxidation to cyclohexadienones and quinones. The ring nitration of catechol was ...
