Synthesis of cystine C_(60) derivative and its protective effects on hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells

Oxidative stress has been considered as a major cause of cellular injuries in a variety of clinical abnormalities, especially prominent in neural diseases. One of the usable ways to prevent the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated cellular injury is dietary or pharmaceutical augmentation of some free radical scavenger. Water-soluble amino-fullerene is a novel compound that behaves as a free radical scavenger with excellent biology consistent. In the present study, we have synthesized and characterized a novel cystine C60 derivative for the first time, and investigated the effects on hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress and apoptotic death in cultured rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. PC12 cells treated with hydrogen peroxide underwent apoptotic death as determined by MTT, PI/Hoechst 33342 staining and flow cytometry analysis. These results suggested that cystine C60 derivative has the potential to prevent oxidative stress-induced cell death and has no evident toxicity.     

Photodynamic action of a water-soluble hypocrellin derivative with enhanced absorptivity in the phototherapeutic window II. Photosensitized generation of active oxygen species

Cysteine-substituted hypocrellin B (Cys-HB) is a water-soluble perylenequinonoid derivative with significantly enhanced absorptivity in the range of wavelength longer than 600 nm. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements, quenching experiments and 9,10-diphenyl-anthracene bleaching studies were used to investigate the photodynamic action of Cys-HB in the presence of oxygen. Illumination of Cys-HB solution, in the presence of oxygen, generated singlet oxygen, superoxide anion radical, hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide. The accumulation of active oxygen species was transformed into that of the semiquinone anion radical with the depletion of oxygen, detected by the spin counteraction of TEMPO radical formed via the reaction of TEMP with singlet oxygen produced by Cys-HB photosensitization. Oxygen content, Cys-HB concentration and reaction environment affected the transformation and the competition between the Type I and Type II reactions. Compared with hypocrellin B (HB), Cys-HB primarily remained similar and slightly lower capability of active oxygen-generation, confirmed to be a favorable phototherapeutic agent.     

Characterization of microwave-synthesized polydextrose and its radical-scavenging activity

Polydextrose (PD) was rapidly synthesized under microwave irradiation using glucose as substrate and phosphoric acid as catalyst. The reaction products were identified by methylation analysis, Fourier- Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and NMR spectroscopy. The FT-IR spectra confirmed the polymerization of glucose to form PD. Methylation analysis and ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR assignments indicated that the PD was a highly branched polysaccharide. The results of radical scavenging activity assays showed that this PD exhibited a potent free hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. This synthetic method can be used to produce PD for the food industry.     

Driving force dependence of intermolecular electron-transfer reactions of fullerenes

Pulse-radiolytic studies were performed to determine the rate constants of intermolecular electron transfer (k(et)) from fullerenes (C(60), C(76), and C(78)) to a series of arene radical cations in dichloromethane. The one-electron oxidation potentials of the employed arenes-corresponding to the one-electron reduction potentials of arene pi-radical cations-were determined in dichloromethane to evaluate the driving forces of electron-transfer oxidation of fullerenes with arene pi-radical cations. The driving force dependence of log k(et) shows a pronounced decrease towards the highly exothermic region, representing the first definitive confirmation of the existence of the Marcus inverted region in a truly intermolecular electron transfer. Electron-transfer reduction of fullerenes with anthracene radical anion was also examined by laser flash photolysis in benzonitrile. The anthracene radical anion was produced by photoinduced electron transfer from 10,10'-dimethyl-9,9',10,10'-tetrahydro-9,9'-biacridine [(AcrH)(2)] to the singlet excited state of anthracene in benzonitrile. The rate constants of electron transfer (k(et)) from anthracene radical anion to C(60), C(70), and a C(60) derivative were determined from the decay of anthracene radical anion in the presence of various concentrations of the fullerene. Importantly, a significant decrease in the k(et) value was observed at large driving forces (1.50 eV) as compared to the diffusion-limited value seen at smaller driving forces (0.96 eV). In conclusion, our study presents clear evidence for the Marcus inverted region in both the electron-transfer reduction and oxidation of fullerenes.     

Deamination of the Radical Cation of the Base Moiety of 2′‐Deoxycytidine: A Theoretical Study

Five pathways leading to the deamination of cytosine (to uracil) after formation of its deprotonated radical cation are investigated in the gas phase, at the UB3LYP/6‐311G(d,p) level of theory, and in bulk aqueous solvent. The most favorable pathway involves hydrogen‐atom transfer from a water molecule to the N3 nitrogen of the deprotonated radical cation, followed by addition of the resulting hydroxyl radical to the C4 carbon of the cytosine derivative. Following protonation of the amino group (N4), the C4? N4 bond is broken with elimination of the NH₃^?+ radical and formation of a protonated uracil. The rate‐determining step of this mechanism is hydrogen‐atom transfer from a water molecule to the cytosine derivative. The associated free energy barrier is 70.2 kJ mol^?1.     

“Living” radical graft polymerization of styrene to styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) with 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐piperidinyloxy (TEMPO)

Well‐defined graft copolymers with styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) backbones and polystyrene branches were synthesized by living free radical polymerization (LFRP) techniques. Thus 1‐ benzoyl‐2‐phenyl‐2‐(2′,2′,6′,6′‐tetramethyl‐piperidinyl‐1′‐oxy)ethane (BZ‐TEMPO) was synthesized and hydrolyzed to the corresponding 1‐hydroxyl derivative. This functional nitroxyl compound was coupled with brominated SBR (SBR‐Br). The resulting macroinitiator (SBR‐TEMPO) for “living” free radical polymerization was then heated in the presence of styrene for the formation of the controlled graft copolymer. ¹H‐NMR and IR spectroscopy were used to investigate the structure of the polymers.

Effect of structural modification on photodynamic activity of hypocrellins

Aluminum ion complexed 5,8-di-Br-hypocrellin B is a new water-soluble perylenequinonoid derivative with enhanced absorption over hypocrellin B (HB) in the phototherapeutic window (600-900 nm). Electron paramagnetic resonance and 9,10-diphenyl-anthracene bleaching methods were used to investigate the photosensitizing activity of [AL2(5,8-di-Br-HB)Cl4]n in the presence of oxygen. Singlet oxygen, superoxide anion radical and hydroxyl radical can be generated by [AL2(5,8-di-Br-HB)CL4]n photosensitization. Singlet oxygen (1O2) is formed via energy transfer from triplet-state [AL2(5,8-di-Br-HB)CL4]n to ground-state molecular oxygen. 1O2 participates in the generation of a portion of superoxide anion radical (O2.-). Besides superoxide anion radical (O2.-) may originate from the electron transfer between the triplet-state [AL2(5,8-di-Br-HB)CL4]n and the ground-state molecular oxygen. OH is formed through the Fenton-Haber-Weiss reaction and the decomposition of DMPO-1O2 adduct. Compared with HB [AL2(5,8-di-Br-HB)CL4]n primarily remains and enhances the generation efficiency of superoxide anion radical and hydroxyl radical but that of singlet oxygen decreases.     

A versatile approach for the preparation of end‐functional polymers and block copolymers by stable radical exchange reactions

A versatile strategy for the preparation of end‐functional polymers and block copolymers by radical exchange reactions is described. For this purpose, first polystyrene with 2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl end group (PS‐TEMPO) is prepared by nitroxide‐mediated radical polymerization (NMRP). In the subsequent step, these polymers are heated to 130 °C in the presence of independently prepared TEMPO derivatives bearing hydroxyl, azide and carboxylic acid functionalities, and polymers such as poly(ethylene glycol) (TEMPO‐PEG) and poly(ε‐caprolactone) (TEMPO‐PCL). Due to the simultaneous radical generation and reversible termination of the polymer radical, TEMPO moiety on polystyrene is replaced to form the corresponding end‐functional polymers and block copolymers. The intermediates and final polymers are characterized by ¹H NMR, UV, IR, and GPC measurements. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym. Chem. 2019 , 57, 2387–2395     

Mono- and Dianion of a Bis(benzobuta)tetraazapentacene Derivative

A bis(benzobuta)tetraazapentacene derivative was reduced to its radical anion and its dianion, using potassium [18]crown-6 anthracenide in THF. Both reduced species were characterized by UV/Vis spectroscopy of the isolated species and by spectroelectrochemistry. Two distinct single-crystal structures of the dianion and an EPR spectrum of the radical anion were obtained. Contrary to other azaacenes, the lowest energy absorption in the UV/Vis spectrum of the dianion is redshifted in comparison to that of the neutral compound.

2’-脱氧胞苷-5’-磷酸羟基加合物的分子结构与电子结构

使用密度泛函理论(DFT)的B3LYP/DZP++研究了羟基自由基与2’-脱氧胞苷-5’-磷酸(dCMP)的胞嘧啶环加成产物的分子结构与电子结构. 结果表明, dCMP胞嘧啶环中各C原子上的单羟基加合物的相对稳定性顺序为C5>C6>>C4≥C2. 加合物的稳定性、自旋密度、静电势以及dCMP的电子密度、静电势、电荷分布分析表明, dCMP遭遇多个羟基自由基攻击时, 第一个羟基自由基加在dCMP的C5上, 而C6则成为第二个羟基自由基的进攻目标. 反应中一旦形成了C2-位单羟基加合物, 则极有可能在DNA复制过程中引起致命的基因突变, 也可能诱发DNA-DNA以及DNA-蛋白质的链间交联, 引起更复杂的损伤. 相反, C5、C6-位上单羟基加合物的形成对DNA的稳定性不构成直接威胁.     

Autooxidation Mechanism of Pyrogallol,Its Free Radical Effects Studied by Means of ESR,UV, NMR

Pyrogallol(pyrogallic acid) is easy to be auto-oxidized, forming a free radical under alkaline condition, but the mechanism has not been clear. The mechanism of the auto-oxidation of pyrogallol was studied with ESR, UV, NMR techniques, it was found that pyrogallol was autooxidized to a quinone radical under alkaline condition. And at the same time oxygen recieved an electron from the reaction to form superoxide anions, the hydroxyl free radical was then produced by Haber-Weiss reaction. The oxygen free radicals generated from this process promoted the auto-oxidation of pyrogallol.     

Reaction control in radical polymerization of di‐n‐butyl itaconate utilizing a hydrogen‐bonding interaction

We have reported that intramolecular chain‐transfer reaction takes place in radical polymerization of itaconates at high temperatures and/or at low monomer concentrations. In this article, radical polymerizations of di‐n‐butyl itaconate (DBI) were carried out in toluene at 60 °C in the presence of amide compounds. The ¹³C‐NMR spectra of the obtained poly(DBI)s indicated that the intramolecular chain‐transfer reaction was suppressed as compared with in the absence of amide compounds. The NMR analysis of DBI and N‐ethylacetamide demonstrated both 1:1 complex and 1:2 complex were formed at 60 °C through a hydrogen‐bonding interaction. The ESR analysis of radical polymerization of diisopropyl itaconate (DiPI) was conducted in addition to the NMR analysis of the obtained poly(DiPI). It was suggested that the suppression of the intramolecular chain‐transfer reaction with the hydrogen‐bonding interaction was achieved by controlling the conformation of the side chain at the penultimate monomeric unit of the propagating radical with an isotactic stereosequence. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
