The N- and alpha- C-oxidation of N,N-dialkylanilines by rabbit liver microsomes in vitro. 1979

J W Gorrod, and D J Temple, and A H Beckett

1. A method for the determination of N,N-dialkylanilines and their metabolites by g.l.c. is described. 2. N-Demethylation and N-oxidation are important routes of metabolism of N-alkyl-N-methylanilines. 3. N-dealkylation, except the removal of a N-t-butyl group, occurs during the metabolism of N,N-dialkylanilines. 4. N-oxidation was found with N,N-dimethyl and N,N-diethylaniline and all N-methyl-N-alkylanilines examined except N-methyl-N-t-butylaniline. 5. A good correlation was found between the hydrophobic bonding constant (pi) and the extent of demethylation of a series of N-alkyl-N-methylanilines.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.
