Electronic absorption spectra of benzoquinone and its hydroxy substituents and effect of solvents on their spectra.

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 56(5) , 965-81, (2000)

The electronic absorption spectra of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) and its 2,5-dihydroxy and tetrahydroxy derivatives have been studied in detail. The interpretation of the electronic bands is made on the bas...

Identification and characterization of hydroxyquinone hydratase activities from Sphingobium chlorophenolicum ATCC 39723.

Biodegradation 16(4) , 353-62, (2005)

Hydroxyquinol, a common metabolite of aromatic compounds, is readily auto-oxidized to hydroxyquinone. Enzymatic activities that metabolized hydroxyquinone were observed from the cell extracts of Sphin...

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) studies on 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (DHBQ).

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 59(3) , 537-42, (2003)

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectra of solid 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone were measured and compared with IR and Raman data. The INS spectrum is very well reproduced in the region below 1000 ...
