The m-methoxy group is normally electron-withdrawing (EW), sigma(m) = +0.12, sigma(m+) = +0.05. The strong EW activity of a phenoxyl radical's O* atom causes the m-methoxy group to become electron-donating (ED), sigma(m)(+) = -0.14. In valence bond terms, this can

A tyrosinase-directed therapeutic approach for malignant melanoma therapy uses the depigmenting phenolic agents such as 4-hydroxyanisole (4-HA) to form cytotoxic o-quinones. However, renal and hepatic toxicity was reported as side effects in a recent 4-HA clinical trial. In search of

Tyrosinase hydroxylates 3-hydroxyanisole in the 4-position. The reaction product accumulates in the reaction medium with a lag time (tau) which diminishes with increasing concentrations of enzyme and lengthens with increasing concentrations of substrate, thus fulfilling all the predictions of the
