General description

Cyclopropylbenzene is a cyclopropylarene and its oxidation by rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 has been studied. Gas-phase structure of cyclopropylbenzene has been studied by ab initio computational, microwave spectroscopic and electron diffraction techniques.

The arylcyclopropanes (cyclopropylarenes) cyclopropylbenzene and diphenylcyclopropane are oxidized by rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450, both by the microsomal fraction and by the purified cytochrome in a reconstituted system. The products formed, principally benzoic acid, are due to an unusual triple

1. The metabolism of cyclopropylbenzene (1a) and 4-cyclopropylanisole (1b) was studied using liver microsomal preparations from control, phenobarbital- and beta-naphthoflavone treated rats. 2. With all three types of microsomes 1a was metabolized by benzylic hydroxylation to give 1-phenylcyclopropanol and by

Ab initio computational, microwave spectroscopic, and electron diffraction techniques have been used to study the gas-phase structure of cyclopropylbenzene. Theoretical calculations at the HF, B3LYP, and MP2 levels for basis sets 6-31G(d) and 6-311G(d) have been carried out. Both MP2

Currently, there are no selective, well characterized inhibitors for CYP2A6. Therefore, the effects of trans-(+/-)-2-phenylcyclopropylamine (tranylcypromine), a potent CYP2A6 inhibitor, on human liver microsomal cytochromes P450 (CYP) were studied to elucidate its selectivity. The IC50 value of tranylcypromine in coumarin
