Notes:
Bromination of the thiazole ring by the enzyme chloroperoxidase, produced by the fungus Caldariomyces fumago, was demonstrated. Both 2-acetoacetamido-4-methylthiazole and 2-acetamidothiazole were brominated on C-5 of the thiazole ring in the presence of chloroperoxidase, bromide, and hydrogen peroxide in 0.06 M Phosphate solution at pH 3.0. No reaction occurred in the absence of enzyme.
