Abstract

The Ca²⁺ complexes of PQQ-2,9-dimethyl ester and its iminoquinone derivative have been synthesised and the reactivity towards alcohols examined; the oxidising ability of the quinone is significantly enhanced by binding Ca²⁺ and NH₃, both of which are essential for quinoprotein methanol dehydrogenase activation.
