Abstract

Abstract The oxidation of benzoin by (NEt4)2[MVIO2(S2C6H4)2] (M = W (1) and Mo (2)) (S2C6H4 = 1,2-benzenedithiolate) was studied to clarify the role of tungsten ions in hyperthermostable enzymes. The reaction was analyzed by saturation kinetics, primary isotope effects of kH/kD, and the high temperture reaction at 100 °C. The rate constants were also compared with those of the selenolato analogs.
