pH Stability and Antioxidant Power of CycloDOPA and Its Derivatives

Abstract: CycloDOPA (leukodopachrome), a well known metabolite of tyrosine, is a precursor of melanine in mammalian organisms and of the pigment betalain in plants. However, the isolation of cycloDOPA from natural sources has not been widely reported. In the present work, the stabilities of cycloDOPA and cycloDOPA methyl ester at various pH levels were studied. Both compounds were stable under acidic conditions. By contrast, both compounds were unstable when the pH was shifted from neutral to basic to form indole deriva… Show more

“…The proton in the dihydroindolic ring is the most acidic. The quaternary nitrogen of the indoline moiety has little influence on the antioxidant activity of this compound . The study also reports a descending order of deprotonation of betacyanins (based on betanin and betanidin) as C-17, C-15, and C-2.…”

“…Sulfamethazine has also been reported as an antimicrobial compound [ 30 ]. On the other hand, cyclo -Dopa 5- O -glucoside may act as a ROS scavenger [ 31 ]. DIMBOA-glucoside is likely related to defense signaling [ 32 ].…”

“…Degradation products and degradation pathways of betanin have been identified [ 28 , 29 ], and generally, degradation of betanin proceeds through degradation into betalamic acid and cyclo-dopa 5-O-glycoside by cleavage of the aldimine bond. An antioxidant capacity of these compounds: betalamic acid [ 30 ] and cyclo-dopa derivatives [ 31 ] has been reported, allowing the suggestion that the degradation products like these compounds may be involved in the antioxidant capacity of betanin after heat degradation.…”
