    Abstract:
    Kinetics of demethylation of a number of amines involving hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 and organic hydroperoxides (tret-butyl- and cumylhydroperoxide) have been investigated. Decomposition rate constants for the substrate-cytochrome P-450-ROOH complexes have been determined in a generalized form. Activation parameters, deltaH* and deltaS*, are calculated for decomposition of the complexes. There is a linear relation between deltaH* and deltaS*: deltaH*=18.7 kcal + 333 degrees K deltaS*. Compensation relationship is characterized by the value of alpha=333 degrees K/Taverage=1.11. The nature of the limiting step in the cytochrome P-450-NADPH-O2-system and the cytochrome P-450-ROOH-system is discussed.
