摘要
The reduction of 4-nitrophenol catalyzed by nitroreductase in the presence of NADH was investigated in this paper. 4-Aminophenol and 4-hydroxylamino-phenol were found in the reductive products. The relationship between reaction time and the reductive ratio were studied. The similar reducing ratios of 4-nitrophenol were obtained under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The results indicated that an oxygen-insensitive reaction was proceeded in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol and nitroreductase was an oxygen-insensitive enzyme. The reductive products of 4-nitrophenol were determined by HPLC and MS. (c) 2006 Rong Ji Dai. Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of Chinese Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
