Arylhalides are important building blocks in many fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, and there has been increasing interest in the development of more "green" halogenation methods based on enzyme catalysis. However, the screening and development of new enzymes for biohalogenation has been hampered by a lack of high-throughput screening methods. Described herein is the development of a colorimetric assay for detecting both chemical and enzymatic arylamine halogenation reactions in an aqueous environment. The assay is based on the unique UV/Vis spectrum created by the formation of an ortho-benzoquinone-amine adduct, which is produced by the peroxidase-catalysed benzoquinone generation, followed by Michael addition of either a halogenated or non-halogenated arylamine. This assay is sensitive, rapid and amenable to high-throughput screening platforms. We have also shown this assay to be easily coupled to a flavin-dependent halogenase, which currently lacks any convenient colorimetric assay, in a "one-pot" workflow.
METHOD FOR PRODUCING 2-AMINO-5-IODOBENZOIC ACID

Page/Page column 4-5, (2008/06/13)
A method for producing 2-amino-5-iodobenzoic acid which comprises bringing 2-aminobenzoic acid (A) and molecular iodine (B) into reaction with each other in the liquid phase in the presence of an oxidizing agent. Hydrogen peroxide is preferable as the oxidizing agent. This method does not require a step for purifying 2-amino-5-iodobenzoic acid or a step for recovering iodine, and 2-amino-5-iodobenzoic acid having excellent quality can be produced economically advantageously with a great yield. The product can be advantageously used as an intermediate for drugs, an agricultural chemical and a raw material for functional chemicals.
