Reductive dechlorination of carbon tetrachloride by cobalamin(II) in the presence of dithiothreitol : mechanistic study, effect of redox potential and pH

A mechanistic study of the reductive dechlorination of carbon tetrachloride by vitamin B12 in the presence of dithiothreitol was conducted as a function of redox potential and pH. The results illustrate the role of cobalamin(II) in reductive dechlorination by vitamin B12.
