form a hydrogen bond with the distal oxygen of hydroperoxide
has been designed and prepared as a structural/functional model
of dopamine β-hydroxylases, whose spectroscopic characterization
and decomposition rates have indicated that the hydroperoxide is
activated through the hydrogen-bonding interaction with the distal
oxygen.
