In enzymology an acetoxybutynylbithiophene deacetylase (EC 3.1.1.54) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction5-(4-acetoxybut-1-ynyl)-22′-bithiophene + H2O 5-(4-hydroxybut-1-ynyl)-22′-bithiophene + acetateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 5-(4-acetoxybut-1-ynyl)-22′-bithiophene and H2O whereas its two products are 5-(4-hydroxybut-1-ynyl)-22′-bithiophene and acetate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds.
