Hippuric acid may be formed from the essential amino acid ] through at least two pathways. Phenylalanine undergoes ] to form an ], ], which can tautomerize to a reactive enol. The benzylic carbon is reactive which undergoes ] followed by the competing pathways to either react with the alpha carbon subsequently form an ] intermediate followed by formation of oxalic acid and benzaldehyde, or, peroxidation can react with the ] to form an alpha-keto-beta-peroxylactone intermediate followed by formation of ], ], and ]. Alternatively, under certain conditions, phenylpyruvic acid may undergo a redox mechanism, such as ] donating an electron, to directly release carbon dioxide, followed by carbon monoxide, for the formation of a stable toluene radical which is resolved by an antioxidant such as ascorbate. In all of the aforementioned cases, benzaldehyde undergoes biotransformation via ] to benzoic acid followed by conjugation to glycine for formation of hippurate which undergoes urinary excretion.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Hopper|first1=Christopher P.|last2=De La Cruz|first2=Ladie Kimberly|last3=Lyles|first3=Kristin V.|last4=Wareham|first4=Lauren K.|last5=Gilbert|first5=Jack A.|last6=Eichenbaum|first6=Zehava|last7=Magierowski|first7=Marcin|last8=Poole|first8=Robert K.|last9=Wollborn|first9=Jakob|last10=Wang|first10=Binghe|date=2020-12-23|title=Role of Carbon Monoxide in Host–Gut Microbiome Communication|journal=Chemical Reviews|language=en|volume=120|issue=24|pages=13273–13311|doi=10.1021/acs.chemrev.0c00586|pmid=33089988 |s2cid=224824871 |issn=0009-2665}}</ref> Similarly, toluene reacts with CYP450 to form benzaldehyde.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Hopper|first1=Christopher P.|last2=Zambrana|first2=Paige N.|last3=Goebel|first3=Ulrich|last4=Wollborn|first4=Jakob|date=2021|title=A brief history of carbon monoxide and its therapeutic origins|journal=Nitric Oxide|language=en|volume=111-112|pages=45–63|doi=10.1016/j.niox.2021.04.001 |pmid=33838343 |s2cid=233205099 |issn=1089-8603}}</ref>
