  2. Carboxylate reductase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxylate_reductase

    In enzymology, a carboxylate reductase (EC 1.2.99.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. an aldehyde + acceptor + H 2 O a carboxylate + reduced acceptor. The 3 substrates of this enzyme are aldehyde, acceptor, and H 2 O, whereas its two products are carboxylate and reduced acceptor.

  3. Dakin oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakin_oxidation

    The Dakin oxidation (or Dakin reaction) is an organic redox reaction in which an ortho- or para-hydroxylated phenyl aldehyde (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde or 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde) or ketone reacts with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) in base to form a benzenediol and a carboxylate. Overall, the carbonyl group is oxidised, whereas the H 2 O 2 is reduced.

  4. Polyol pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyol_pathway

    The polyol metabolic pathway. [6]Cells use glucose for energy.This normally occurs by phosphorylation from the enzyme hexokinase. However, if large amounts of glucose are present (as in diabetes mellitus), hexokinase becomes saturated and the excess glucose enters the polyol pathway when aldose reductase reduces it to sorbitol.

  5. Carboxylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxylate

    Carboxylate ion Acrylate ion. In organic chemistry, a carboxylate is the conjugate base of a carboxylic acid, RCOO − (or RCO − 2). It is an anion, an ion with negative charge. Carboxylate salts are salts that have the general formula M(RCOO) n, where M is a metal and n is 1, 2,....

  6. Pyrroline-2-carboxylate reductase - Wikipedia

    The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-proline, NAD +, and NADP +, whereas its 4 products are 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, NADH, NADPH, and H +. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases , specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.

  8. Aminocyclopropanecarboxylate oxidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aminocyclopropanecarboxyl...

    The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, ascorbate, and O 2, whereas its 5 products are ethylene, cyanide, dehydroascorbate, CO 2, and H 2 O. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen. The oxygen ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knorr_pyrrole_synthesis

    The result was ethyl 4-acetyl-3,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxylate, where "OEt" = R 1 = R 3 = Me, and R 2 = COOEt. [9] The 4-acetyl group could easily be converted to a 4-ethyl group by Wolff-Kishner reduction (hydrazine and alkali, heated); hydrogenolysis, or the use of diborane .
