  2. Phase I reactions • Chemical modification of xenobiotics • Introduces or uncovers polar functional groups that provide sites for Phase II metabolism • Major classes of reaction: • Oxidation • Reduction • Hydrolysis

  3. Overview of oxidations, reductions, hydrolyses • Oxidation • Loss of electrons M M+ + e- • Gain of oxygen R + O RO

  4. Oxidation reactions Hydroxylation

  5. Epoxidation

  6. Demethylation Deethylation

  7. Overview of oxidations, reductions, hydrolyses • Reduction • Gain of electrons M+ + e- M • Loss of oxygen RO R + O • Gain of hydrogen R + H RH

  8. Reduction • Nitro to amino group • Chromium VI to Chromium III Cr6+ + 3 e- Cr3+

  9. Hydrolysis • Addition of water • Cleavage of R-O or R-N bond accompanied by addition of H2O R’-O-R + H2O R’-O-H + R-OH R’-N-R + H2O R’-N-H + R-OH H H

  35. Outcomes • Slight gain in water solubility (ionizable hydroxyl, amino groups) • Sites for Phase 2 reactions – attachment of glucuronyl, sulfate, glutathione residues > major gain in water-solubility. • Formation of reactive electrophiles e.g. epoxides (especially polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) • Formation of sites for redox cycling (catechols <->quinones) > ROS
