Conference: 9th International Symposium on Flavins and Flavoproteins

Abstract: 

In order to gain further insight into the physical basis of flavin-catalyzed reactions, the interactions of a flavin with a second flavin and with other aromatic ring systems were studied. For this purpose compounds 2 through _5 (Fig.1) were synthesized (1,2). These compounds contain the interacting units in defined geometric orientation. A monomeric flavin (1_) and glutathione reductase (6^), a flavoenzyme of known active-site chemistry (3), were included as reference mole-cules. The present report deals with excited triplet states of the flavin compounds as studied by optical spectroscopy and optically detected magnetic resonances (ODMR) at 1.3K.
