A pro-chelator triggered by hydrogen peroxide inhibits iron-promoted hydroxyl radical formation

The synthesis and structural characterization of a new pro-chelating agent, isonicotinic acid [2-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-benzylidene]-hydrazide (BSIH), are presented. BSIH only weakly interacts with iron unless hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is present to remove the boronic ester protecting group to reveal a phenol that is a key metal-binding group of tridentate salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH). BSIH prevents deoxyribose degradation caused by hydroxyl radicals that are generated from H2O2 and redox-active iron by sequestering Fe3+ and preventing iron-promoted hydroxyl radical formation. The rate-determining step for iron sequestration is conversion of BSIH to SIH, followed by rapid Fe3+ complexation. The pro-chelate approach of BSIH represents a promising strategy for chelating a specific pool of detrimental metal ions without disturbing healthy metal ion distribution.     

Self‐immolative nanoparticles triggered by hydrogen peroxide and pH

The azomethine‐based oligomers bearing boronate groups and imine moieties in the main chain were synthesized from a dialdehyde monomer and an aromatic (oligomer 4 ) diamine or an aliphatic diamine (oligomer 5 ). Based on the oligomers, the nanoparticles with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and pH dual‐responsive properties were constructed and encapsulated nile red inside. The nanoparticles disassembled either by the trigger of H₂O₂ or by the attack of H⁺, thus leading to the release of loaded species. Compared to oligomer 4 , oligomer 5 showed a faster degradation rate in the presence of H₂O₂, especially in a weak acidic environment. No significant cytotoxicity was observed as HeLa cells incubated in the nanoparticles with the concentration up to 200 μg/mL evidenced by cytotoxicity assay in vitro. Such a system capable of dual response of H₂O₂ and H⁺ may have potential application as a carrier for drug delivery. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Pd-catalyzed oxidative amidation of aldehydes with hydrogen peroxide

Using hydrogen peroxide as a key oxidant, catalytic oxidative amidation between aldehydes and amines was effectively carried out with PdCl₂-xantophos as a catalyst in methanol under acidic conditions. The new protocol is mechanistically different from the previous one through β-hydride elimination.     

Catalytic oxidative cleavage of olefins promoted by osmium tetroxide and hydrogen peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide was employed as the terminal oxidant in the osmium tetroxide mediated oxidative cleavage of olefins, producing the corresponding aldehyde and ketone products. Aryl olefins are cleaved in good to excellent yield regardless of arene electronics. Alkyl olefins cleave in moderate to good yield for di- and tri-substituted alkenes.     

A boronic acid based intramolecular charge transfer probe for colorimetric detection of hydrogen peroxide

Many oxidative stress related diseases and adverse health conditions have been associated with the negative effects of hydrogen peroxide and other similar reactive oxygen species in human body. Therefore, increasing attention has been attracted to the detection and monitoring of hydrogen peroxide in living organisms and food items. In this work, a simple, inexpensive colorimetric method for the quantitative determination of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous sample is described. This method utilizes the de-protection of aryl boronic acid to yield a strongly colored water-soluble dye, which is capable of absorbing and emitting in the red region of the spectrum. The mechanism is faster in alkaline condition and utilizes the intramolecular charge transfer between strong phenolate donor and TCF acceptor, thus allowing a naked eye detection of hydrogen peroxide within seconds. The method is unaffected by the presence of various salts, metal ions, and other interfering species, and it can provide a limit of detection as low as ~1 ppm in aqueous samples. This unique way of generating a fluorogenic donor-acceptor pair holds a potential of this dye and other related derivatives for understanding the role of hydrogen peroxide in physiology and pathology.     

Selenocysteine versus cysteine reactivity: a theoretical study of their oxidation by hydrogen peroxide

The cysteine and selenocysteine oxidation by H2O2 in vacuo and in aqueous solution was studied using the integrated molecular orbital + molecular orbital (IMOMO) method combining the quadratic configuration method QCISD(T) and the spin projection of second-order perturbation theory PMP2. It is shown that including in the model system of cysteine (selenocysteine) residue up to 20 atoms has significant consequences upon the calculated reaction energy barrier. On the other hand, it is demonstrated that free cysteine and selenocysteine have very similar reaction energy barriers, 77-79 kJ mol(-1) in aqueous solution. It is thus concluded that the high experimental reaction rate constant reported for the oxidation of the selenocysteine residue in the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) active center is due to an important interaction between selenocysteine and its molecular environment. The sensitivity of the calculated energy barrier to the dielectric constant of the molecular environment observed for both cysteine and selenocysteine as well as the catalytic effect of the NH group emphasized in the case of cysteine supports this hypothesis.     

A novel oxidative degradation pathway of indomethacin under the stressing by hydrogen peroxide

Fluorometry of hydrogen peroxide using oxidative decomposition of folic acid

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is one of the most important reactive oxygen species. In the present study, a fluorometry method for detecting H₂O₂ utilizing folic acid was evaluated. Folic acid was decomposed by H₂O₂ in the presence of Cu(II) into pterine-6-carboxylic acid, leading to strong fluorescence enhancement. In the absence of the metal ion, superoxide and H₂O₂ could not decompose folic acid. Also, H₂O₂ plus sodium hypochlorite (a source of singlet oxygen) could not induce fluorescence enhancement. These results demonstrate that H₂O₂ can be selectively detected using folic acid plus Cu(II). The limit of detection (LOD; at S/N=3) for H₂O₂ is 0.5 μM. This method based on the fluorescence enhancement of folic acid was applied in order to determine small amounts of H₂O₂ generated through the autooxidation of semicarbazide (generation rate: ∼0.01 μM min⁻¹), a carcinogenic compound.      

Bleaching of cellulose by hydrogen peroxide

Peroxides are important bleaching agents, industrially, for cellulosic products. They are also used in detergents. Peroxides can degrade cellulose as well as decolorize it and remove stains. Both free radicals and perhydroxyl anions have been suggested as the intermediates in the reactions occurring between cellulosic products and hydrogen peroxide. The proposed mechanisms are reviewed with emphasis primarily on cotton cellulose. Further work is required to establish unequivocally the mechanism of degradation and decolorization of cellulose products.

Oscillatory reactions involving hydrogen peroxide and thiosulfate-kinetics of the oxidation of tetrathionate by hydrogen peroxide

The reaction between tetrathionate and hydrogen peroxide forms an important part of several pH oscillators based on the oxidation of thiosulfate. The kinetics of this reaction were examined in a batch reactor by measurement of the initial pH values in the range from 8 to 10.5. Experimental data were evaluated by the method of initial reaction rates combined with the assumption of instantaneously equilibrated acid-base reactions. The rate-determining step was found to be of the first order with respect to tetrathionate, hydrogen peroxide, and OH- ions with the value of rate constant k = (1.50 +/- 0.03) x 10(2) (M2 s)(-1) at 25 degrees C. In the alkaline solution, no distinct catalytic effect of Cu2+ was observed in contrast to earlier assumptions. The waveform of measured pH over the course of the reaction indicates that thiosulfate is probably an intermediate because characteristics of the curves are very similar to those for the oxidation of thiosulfate. We also measured the time evolution of concentrations of major components by the attenuated total internal reflectance infrared spectroscopy to further elucidate the underlying reaction mechanism. These measurements confirm the suspected role of thiosulfate as an intermediate in the studied reaction and provide valuable detailed information on the time evolution of thiosulfate, sulfite, sulfate, tetrathionate, and trithionate. These experimental observations are included in a simple mechanism that accurately simulates the reaction course in an alkaline solution. The results provide considerable new insights into the nature of autocatalysis in the hydrogen peroxide-thiosulfate-Cu2+ reaction and suggest that a new role for Cu2+ in the oscillatory dynamics observed in a flow-through reactor needs to be found.     

Characteristics of transition state and reactivity of hydrocarbon molecules in reaction of hydrogen atom abstraction by peroxide radicals

In the MINDO/3 approximation, transition states (TSs) have been found for the reaction of hydrogen atom abstraction by hydroperoxide radicals from molecules containing a C-H bond in the -position relative to the double bond. It has been shown that the TSs have a structure with partial charge transfer, and the reactivity of the molecules depends on their electron-donor properties and the TS structure.L. M.
