摘要
The de-iodination of aryl-phenols by benzeneselenol is investigated as a model of the seleno-Protein, 5'-thyronine de-iodinase. The results suggest that the mechanism involves the stabilisation of the ketonic tautomer of thyroxine (T4) prior to the abstraction of an iodine by RSe-. The RSeI formed can then be reduced by a thiol co-factor to regenerate the active enzyme.
