Kinetic experiments for catalytic degradation of the ß-1 and its deuterated Substrates supported the one-electron transfer mechanism for the oxygenative C-C bond cleavage previously reported. Other model compounds were also found to undergo C-C bond cleavages in the hemincatalyzed reaction, yielding aromatic aldehydes, ketols and acids.
