2-(2,4,5-Trimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-one
In the title aza-flavanone, C18H19NO4, an intramolecular cyclization product of chalcone, the central heterocyclic ring is in an envelope conformation and the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 51.03 (10)°. The methoxy groups at the ortho and para positions are slightly twisted from the benzene ring to which they are bound [C—O—C—C = 21.9 (3) and −171.93 (18)°, respectively], whereas the methoxy group at the meta position is almost coplanar [C—O—C—C = 3.5 (3)°]. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H...O interactions into chains along the [001] direction. Weak C—H...π interactions also occur.

Zymographic Assay of Oxidases Using Peroxidase or Hemin Entrapped in Polyacrylamide Gel
This chapter describes a zymographic assay of oxidases which is based on a coupled peroxidase or hemin reaction. The enzymatic activity of oxidases (i.e., diamine oxidase/DAO, glucose oxidase, galactose oxidase) can be directly monitored on polyacrylamide gels containing horseradish peroxidase or hemin, in the presence of their specific substrates and ortho-phenylenediamine (OPDA), an oxidizable chromogen. In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, OPDA is oxidized to azo-aniline, which led to well-defined yellow-brown bands on gels, with intensities corresponding to the enzymatic activity of oxidases.
