Pentachlorophenol monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.50, pentachlorophenol dechlorinase, pentachlorophenol dehalogenase, pentachlorophenol 4-monooxygenase, PCP hydroxylase, pentachlorophenol hydroxylase, PcpB, PCB 4-monooxygenase, PCB4MO) is an enzyme with systematic name pentachlorophenol,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydroxylating, dechlorinating). It catalyses two different chemical reactions, depending on its substrate. In each case, the starting material is a phenol.[1][2]

Pentachlorophenol monooxygenase is a flavoprotein.[3]

Reactions catalysed

The enzyme acts only on phenols with halogens in the position next to the hydroxy group on the benzene ring, the 2-position.[4]

With hydrogen at the 4-position

In this case, a typical reaction converts 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenol to tetrachlorohydroquinone:[5]

With a halogen at the 4-position

In this case, a typical reaction converts pentachlorophenol to chloranil:[6]
