2-Bromohydroquinone was identified as a metabolite of both bromobenzene and o-bromophenol in the rat in vivo and in vitro. Identification was based on high-pressure liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Formation of 2-bromohydroquinone by rat liver microsomes from both bromobenzene

Homogenates from rat renal papillae, a rich source of the prostaglandin (PG) H synthase system (PHS), metabolized [14C]2-bromohydroquinone, in the presence of arachidonic acid, to products which are covalently bound to protein. The co-oxidation of 2-bromohydroquinone caused a concentration-dependent stimulation
T J Monks et al.
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 103(3), 557-563 (1990-05-01)
Glutathione (GSH) conjugates of 2-bromohydroquinone are more difficult to oxidize than the parent hydroquinone. Hydrolysis catalyzed by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT), however, results in the formation of the corresponding cysteine conjugate which is more readily oxidized than the parent hydroquinone.
