Synthetic chemistry for tryptophan tryptophylquinone like enzyme cofactors

This thesis describes studies on the synthesis of model compounds based on the tryptophan tryptophanyl quinone (TTQ) cofactor designed to probe the mechanism by which it catalyses primary amine oxidation and the role of the enzyme in assisting the TTQ-facilitated reaction. This project has begun to...
