Kim, Yong-Hak published the artcileDegradation of alkyl ethers, aralkyl ethers, and dibenzyl ether by Rhodococcus sp. strain DEE5151, isolated from diethyl ether-containing enrichment cultures, Application In Synthesis of 622-86-6, the main research area is Rhodococcus ether biodegradation.
Twenty strains isolated from sewage sludge were found to degrade various ethers, including alkyl ethers, aralkyl ethers, and dibenzyl ether. In Rhodococcus strain DEE5151, induction of ether degradation needed substrates exhibiting at least one unsubstituted Cα-methylene moiety as the main structural prerequisite. The cleavage reaction observed with anisole, phenetole, and dibenzyl ether indicates that the initial oxidation occurs at such resp. Cα positions. Di-Et ether-induced strain DEE5151 degraded dibenzyl ether via intermediately accumulated benzoic acid. Phenetole seems to be subject also to another ether-cleaving enzyme. Other strains of this group showed different enzymic activities towards the substrate classes investigated.
Applied and Environmental Microbiology published new progress about Aromatic ethers Role: BSU (Biological Study, Unclassified), BIOL (Biological Study). 622-86-6 belongs to class ethers-buliding-blocks, name is (2-Chloroethoxy)benzene, and the molecular formula is C8H9ClO, Application In Synthesis of 622-86-6.
