Abstract
A coordinated effort: The isomerization mechanism of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2), which is catalytically isomerized to prostacyclin or thromboxane A2 by cytochrome P450s, was investigated using a heme-thiolate complex and an endoperoxide. Isomerization of endoperoxides proceeded very rapidly with this complex, whereas imidazole- or chloride-ligated heme had slight or no catalytic activity (see scheme).
