Abstract
Ionic strength strongly influenced the turnover/inactivation ratio in the interaction between beta-halogenopenicillanates and some class A beta-lactamases. This suggested the stabilization of a highly charged intermediate by solvation. Those data could be interpreted on the basis of a reaction pathway where an episulphonium ion was transiently formed. The various mechanisms proposed for explaining the formation of the dihydrothiazine chromophore are discussed.Entities:
