General description

Phenylacetone is the immediate precursor for clandestine production of amphetamine and methamphetamine. Phenylacetone on anaerobic incubations with rat liver mitochondria gets reduced to phenylisopropanol.

The secondary alcohol dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus 39E (TeSADH) is highly thermostable and solvent-stable, and it is active on a broad range of substrates. These properties make TeSADH an excellent template to engineer an industrial catalyst for chiral chemical synthesis.

The isotope ratios of amphetamine type stimulants (ATS) depend as well on the precursor as the synthetic pathway. For clandestine production of amphetamine and methamphetamine, 1-phenyl-2-propanone (P2P, benzylmethylketone) is a commonly used precursor. Our aim was to determine the variation

The structural stability of 1,3-diphenylurea and 1,3-diphenylacetone was investigated by the DFT-B3LYP and ab initio MP2 calculations using the 6-311G(**) basis set. From full energy optimization at the MP2 level of theory the near-planar cis-trans form of 1,3-diphenylurea was predicted
