Metal ion-catalysed oxidation of linoleic acid. Lipoxygenase-like regioselectivity of oxygenation

Abstract

Haem-proteins and CuII and FeII ions catalyse the oxygenation of linoleic acid in aqueous buffer to yield mainly the 13-OOH positional isomers of linoleate hydroperoxide, a regioselectivity that is similar to those of lipoxygenases.
