Synthesis and Anti Lipid-Peroxidation Activity of Hydroquinone Monoalkyl Ethers.

Abstract: A series of hydroquinone monoalkyl ethers was synthesized and evaluated for anti lipid-peroxidation activity in rat liver microsomes. 4-Hexyloxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenol (9), having a low redox potential, as well as ascorbic acid exhibited the strongest anti lipid-peroxidation activity (IC50 = 4.2 x 10(-7) M). Structure-activity relationship studies demonstrated that the inhibitory effect of hydroquinone monoalkyl ethers on lipid peroxidation was increased by the acquisition of an optimum hydrophobicity and decre… Show more

“…Caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid were able to scavenge the stable free radical, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and inhibit nitrosamine formation by scavenging a nitrosating agent, nitrogen sesquinixide. 26) HTHQ has potent radical-scavenging activity, in addition to reducing activity, as evaluated using the stable free radical, DPPH 27) like caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid. 26) Such an effect may be partly responsible for the observed inhibition of hepatocarcinogenesis by HTHQ.…”

“…The solvent was removed from the reaction mixture by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residue was treated by silica gel chromatography (CHCl 3 -AcOEt, 10 : 1). Compounds 3i (0.96 g, 2.18 mmol, 7%) and 4i (7.99 12) The modified method of Kiso et al 16) was used. Microsomes were prepared from male Wistar rats weighing about 200 g. The rat liver was homogenized in cold 0.25 M sucrose and the homogenate was centrifuged at 4°C (8000ϫg, 30 min).…”

“…Substituted phenols, and in particular p-alkoxy derivatives, are substances of a wide range of application in organic chemistry since they act as intermediates for drugs, agrochemicals, and dyes. These derivatives can also deactivate the ribonucleotide reductase in tumor cells inhibiting their growth and have been employed for melanoma treatment and applied in AIDS therapy [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The oxidation of cyclic and linear ketones to their respective lactones and esters, using oxidants such as organic peroxides or peroxyoxides, alkyl hydroperoxides or hydrogen peroxide, are very important industrial intermediates finding application in polymers, pharmaceuticals and herbicides production and as solvents [8][9][10][11][12].…”
