S. Itoh et al., Catalytic effect of monovalent cations on the amine oxidation by cofactor TTQ of quinoprotein amine dehydrogenases, CHEM COMMUN, (5), 2000, pp. 329-330
Oxidation of benzylamine by a model compound of cofactor TTQ (tryptophan tr
yptophylquinone) of quinoprotein amine dehydrogenases is made possible by c
oordination of a monovalent cation such as Li+ in anhydrous MeCN.
