Abstract: | The reactions of 10a-peroxyflavins have been examined to increase understanding of the oxidative and chemiluminescent reactions catalysed by the flavin co-enzymes. A remarkable series of structural requirements in the peroxides used has been uncovered, and in addition to serving as models for the mechanism of bacterial luciferase, they constitute a set of new chemiluminescent reactions. |
