Abstract: | Bioactive copper(II), iron(III), and manganese(II) 3,5-di-i-propylsalicylate (3,5-DIPS) chelates were investigated in order to determine their ability to inhibit the free radical initiated chain reactions leading to the peroxidation of isopropylbenzene (i-PrPh) and ethylbenzene (EtPh). Quantitative kinetic studies of these chelates established the following order of anti-oxidant reactivities: manganese(II)-(3,5-DIPS)2>iron(III)(3,5-DIPS)3>copper(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4> > 3,5-DIPS acid. The mechanism of anti-oxidant reactivity of these three chelates is established as being due, in part, to their chain-breaking capacity resulting from the chemical reduction of the generated peroxyl radical to yield alkybenzenelhydroperoxides via reaction of the 3,5-DIPS ligand with the peroxyl radical. In the case of manganese(II)3,5-di-i-propylsalicylate, the central metalloelement also interacts with the peroxyl radical. The manganese(II)-(3,5-DIPS)2 and copper(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4 chelates were also found to exhibit alkylhydroperoxide pro-oxidative reactivity leading to the formation of the alkylbenzeneperoxyl radical. In addition, the manganese(II) atom underwent oxidation to manganese(III) with the formation of the alkylbenzenehydroperoxide or superoxide with air oxygen oxidation. Amyl acetate and dipropylamine (n-Pr2NH) were added to the reaction mixture to model the biochemical presence of ester or amine cellular components. Addition of amyl acetate to the reaction mixture increased the anti-oxidant reactivity of manganese(II)-(3,5-DIPS)2 while decreasing its pro-oxidant reactivity. The weaker anti-oxidant reactivites of iron(III)(3,5-DIPS)3 and copper(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4 were less affected by the addition of amyl acetate and the pro-oxidant reactivity of copper(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4 was not changed by the addition of amyl acetate, while the pro-oxidant property of iron(III)(3,5-DIPS)3 was eliminated. In contrast to 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol, butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT), anti-oxidant reactivities of copper(II), iron(III), and manganese(II) 3,5-DIPS chelates were dramatically enhanced by the addition of n-Pr2NH to the reaction mixture. It is concluded that all three metalloelement chelates react with and remove alkylbenzeneperoxyl radicals and the hydroperoxyl radical. The manganese(II)-(3,5-DIPS)2 and copper(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4 chelates may also be useful in removing hydroperoxides in vivo. These reactivities, in addition to their established superoxide dismutase (SOD)-mimetic and catalase-mimetic reactivities, are suggested to possibly permit anti-oxidant and pro-oxidant reactivities in aqueous and organic cellular compartments. |
