Conversion of Aromatic Rings to Nonaromatic Cyclic Structures. On treatment with oxidants such as chlorine, hypochlorite anion, chlorine dioxide, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and peroxy acids, the aromatic nuclei in lignin typically ate converted to o- and -quinoid stmctures and oxinane derivatives of quinols. Because of thein relatively high reactivity, these stmctures often appear as transient intermediates rather than as end products. Further reactions of the intermediates lead to the formation of catechol, hydroquinone, and mono- and dicarboxyhc acids. 

Biocompatible nanosized polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer films provided a suitable microenvironment for heme proteins to transfer electron directly with underlying pyrolytic graphite electrodes. The Mb-PAMAM film can catalytically reduced oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and nitrite, indicating that the potential applicability of the film can be used to fabricate a new type of biosensor or bioreactor based on the direct electron transfer of Mb [234],... 

Biopolymers such as agarose hydrogel can also be used to immobilize HRP and to reduce oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide [231], For an HRP-agarose/EPG in a pH 7.0 PBS, a reduction peak at -0.30V was observed after addition of H2Q2. 

The most reliable technique for the analysis of superoxides is that developed by Seyb and Kleinberg. In this method the superoxide sample is treated with a mixture of glacial acetic acid and diethyl or dibutyl phthalate. The superoxide reacts with the acetic add to yield oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and potassium acetate. The amount of superoxide in the sample is related to the amount of oxygen evolved which is measured with a gas buret. The stoichiometry of the analytical reaction is ... 

Transition metal peroxides, particularly peroxo (2), alkylperoxo (7) and hydroperoxo (8) complexes, are extremely important reactive intermediates in catalytic oxidations involving molecular oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides as the oxygen source. Representative peroxo complexes are listed in Table 3, and alkylperoxo and hydroperoxo complexes are listed in Table 4 together with their reactivities. 

Electrocatalytic Reductions Table 13 gathers the main electrocatalytic processes triggered by POMs dissolved in solution. The electrocatalytic reductions of di oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and of several NOx including nitrite, nitric oxide, and nitrate are selected for a more detailed description. 

Oxygen is very toxic and is the source of many other reactive and toxic substances, such as the so-called ROS, or reactive oxygen species, which include the superoxide anion, the nitrogen oxides, the singlet oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and organic peroxides. Animals have a wide variety of enzymes and low molecular compounds that protect them from the devas-... 

BARIUM BEVOXIDE (1304-29-6) BaO, A strong oxidizer accelerates burning of combustible materials. Reacts with water, alcohols, acids, or carbon dioxide (in the presence of HjO), forming oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and possibly dangerous levels of... 

In the editorial preface to the first volume of Advances in Catalysis the decision was made known not to publish reviews of specialized topics in biocatalysis but from time to time to bring reports in which the relationship and parallelism between this special field and normal catalysis are discussed. This is the first of these reports. Its purpose is to examine the reactions of four hemoproteins, hemoglobin, myoglobin, peroxidase, and catalase, which all contain the same coordination compound of iron—ferrous or ferric protoporphyrin attached to different protein molecules, with oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and in a few cases additional reducing substances. Some of these reactions are specific ... 

In anodic oxidation processes, the composition of the electrolyte is, besides the type of electrode employed, the most important factor defining the kind and quantity of the oxidants produced. Using clean water, the production of oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and ozone, according to the applied current densities, is possible. In the presence of chlorides, chlorine is also formed. This is not acceptable in many...
