A series of 1,3,5-triazine analogues, incorporating aminobenzene sulfonamide, aminoalcohol/phenol, piperazine, chalcone, or stilbene structural motifs, were evaluated as potential antioxidants. The compounds were prepared by using step-by-step nucleophilic substitution of chlorine atoms in starting 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine. Reactions were catalyzed by Cu(I)-supported on a weakly acidic resin. The radical scavenging activity was determined in terms of %inhibition activity and EC50, using the ABTS method. Trolox and ascorbic acid (ASA) were used as standards. In the lowest concentration 1 × 10−4 M, the %inhibition activity values at 0 min were comparable with both standards at least for 10 compounds. After 60 min, compounds 5, 6, 13, and 25 showed nearly twice %inhibition (73.44–87.09%) in comparison with the standards (Trolox = 41.49%; ASA = 31.07%). Values of EC50 at 60 min (17.16–27.78 μM) were 5 times lower for compounds 5, 6, 13, and 25 than EC50 of both standards (trolox = 178.33 μM; ASA = 147.47 μM). Values of EC50 correlated with %inhibition activity. Based on these results, the presented 1,3,5-triazine analogues have a high potential in the treatment of illnesses caused or related to oxidative stress.
A series of 1,3,5-triazine derivatives, incorporating aminobenzenesulfonamide, aminoalcohol/phenol, piperazine, chalcone, or stilbene structural motifs, were evaluated as potential antioxidants. The compounds were prepared by using step by step nucleophilic substitution of chlorine atoms in starting 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine. Reactions were catalyzed by Cu(I)-supported on a weakly acidic resin. The radical scavenging activity was determined in terms of %inhibition activity and IC50, using the ABTS method. Trolox and ascorbic acid (ASA) were used as standards. In the lowest used concentration 1 × 10 −4 M, the %inhibition activity at time 0 min was comparable with both standards at least for 10 compounds. After 60 min compounds 1, 2, 9 and 25 showed nearly twice %inhibition (73.44-87.09%) in comparison with standards (Trolox = 41.49%; ASA = 31.07%). Values of IC50 correlated with %inhibition activity . For compounds 1, 2, 9 and 25 values of IC50 in time 60 min (17.16-27.78 μM) were 5 times lower than IC50 of both standards (Trolox = 178.33 μM; ASA = 147.47 μM). Based on these results, the presented 1,3,5-triazine derivatives and their analogs have a high potential in the treatment of illnesses caused or related to oxidative stress.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
