A series of hydroxytyrosol (HT) derivatives were synthesized by modification of alcohol hydroxyl group of HT, twenty-five target compounds were obtained and characterized by NMR and HRMS. The antioxidant activities of those compounds were evaluated in three different assays. Except 3e and 3y, all other compounds demonstrated significant 2,2and#39;-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) free radical cation scavenging activity ranging from IC50 3.4 to 24.4 μM, which were more potent than L-ascorbic acid (IC50=24.8 μM). Compounds 3b-3d, 3f-3k, 3m-3x were better than Trolox (18.3 M). Moreover, the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) of all compounds were discovered to be more potent than L-ascorbic acid (40.7 mmol/g), except 3e, all other compounds (141.5-202.1 mmol/g) were better than Trolox (94.7 mmol/g). Compounds 3a-3d, 3f-3j, 3l-3m, 3o, 3q, 3t, 3v-3y exhibited more potent hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (IC50=245.1-475.1 M) than L-ascorbic acid (554.4 M) and Trolox (500.4 M). Compounds 3q, 3t and 3y exhibited more potent -Glucosidase inhibition activity (39.1-52.4 M) than Acarbose (60.9 M). Compounds 3a, 3d, 3f-3m, 3s-3t, 3v-3y showed some acetylcholinesterase inhibition activities, compounds 3a, 3d, 3f-3j, 3l-3m, 3o-3p, 3s-3t, 3w showed some butyrylcholinesterase inhibition activities.

The novel 4-substituted 1,2,3-triazole L-ascorbic acid (L-ASA) conjugates with hydroxyethylene spacer as well as their conformationally restricted 4,5-unsaturated analogues were synthesized as potential antioxidant and antiproliferative agents. An evaluation of the antioxidant activity of novel compounds showed that the majority of the 4,5-unsaturated L-ASA derivatives showed a better antioxidant activity compared to their saturated counterparts. m-Hydroxyphenyl (7j), p-pentylphenyl (7k) and 2-hydroxyethyl (7q) substituted 4,5-unsaturated 1,2,3-triazole L-ASA derivatives exhibited very efficient and rapid (within 5 min) 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•) radical scavenging activity (7j, 7k: IC50 = 0.06 mM; 7q: IC50 = 0.07 mM). In vitro scavenging activity data were supported by in silico quantum-chemical modelling. Thermodynamic parameters for hydrogen-atom transfer and electron-transfer radical scavenging pathways of anions deprotonated at C2-OH or C3-OH groups of L-ASA fragments were calculated. The structure activity analysis (SAR) through principal component analysis indicated radical scavenging activity by the participation of OH group with favorable reaction parameters: the C3-OH group of saturated C4-C5(OH) derivatives and the C2-OH group of their unsaturated C4=C5 analogues. The antiproliferative evaluation showed that p-bromophenyl (4e: IC50 = 6.72 μM) and p-pentylphenyl-substituted 1,2,3-triazole L-ASA conjugate (4k: IC50 = 26.91 μM) had a selective cytotoxic effect on breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells. Moreover, compound 4e did not inhibit the growth of foreskin fibroblasts (IC50 > 100 μM). In MCF-7 cells treated with 4e, a significant increase of hydroxylated hypoxia-inducible transcription factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) expression and decreased expression of nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) were observed, suggesting the involvement of 4e in the HIF-1α signaling pathway for its strong growth-inhibition effect on MCF-7 cells.

Abstract We evaluated free radical scavenging activity of the water, methanol and chloroform ex­tracts of propolis in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical and xanthine-xanthine oxidase (XOD) generated superoxide anion assay systems. The free radical scavenging activity guided fractionation and chemical analysis led to the isolation of a new compound, propol {3-[4-hydroxy-3-(3-oxo-but-1-enyl)-phenyl]-acrylic acid) from the water extract, which was more potent than most common antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E (α-tocopherol) in these assay systems.

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.

Abstract Melatonin has been suggested as a potent antioxidant that may protect against development of atherosclerosis and cancer; however, these effects are unproven and controversial. The antioxidant capacity of melatonin was tested in comparison with α-tocopherol, ascorbic acid, and the melatonin precursors tryptophan and serotonin, by measuring inhibition of metal ion-mediated and human macrophage-mediated oxidation of LDL. Melatonin had weak antioxidant activity that was detectable only at concentrations 10 000- to 100 000-fold higher than physiologic concentrations. These results were comparable with published data showing that the radical scavenging activity of melatonin requires markedly supraphysiologic concentrations. In contrast, α-tocopherol was 50- to 100-fold more potent and was efficacious at physiologic concentrations. Ascorbic acid and tryptophan also were active at physiologic concentrations and were significantly more potent than melatonin. In summary, extremely supraphysiologic concentrations of melatonin had only weak antioxidant activity, which was surpassed by α-tocopherol, ascorbic acid, and tryptophan.

The Ablmoschus manihot (L.) Medic, an edible hibiscus of the Malvaceae family, is abundant with total flavonoid. The content of total flavonoid from A. manihot flowers (TFA) was extracted by 70% ethanol (ethanol:water, 70:30). The scavenging effects of TFA on superoxide anions and hydrogen radicals were related to the total flavonoid concentrations with the IC50 values of 63.90 ±2.21 μg/mL and 266.88±28.32 μg/mL, respectively. However, the IC50 values of standard ascorbic acid were 436.52 ±14.36 μg/mL and 439.58±21.41 μg/mL, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activity increased with increasing of TFA concentrations and the highest inhibition was 94.63 ±3.01% at 50 μg/mL, as compared to ascorbic acid 34.94 ±1.50%. The extract also showed good reducing power. The data from this study suggest A. manihot flower extract has significant potential to use as health supplements and nutraceuticals.

The influence of Cu2+, Fe2+ on the Maillard reaction were studied by heating L-ascorbic(ASA) and glycine (Gly) solutions adjusted to pH 5 at 120±2°C for 140 min in an oil bath. The presence of metals affected the intensity of browning and intermediate products, as monitored by absorbance at 420 nm and absorbance at 294 nm, sharply increased with the increase of metal concentrations applied (0.000M, 0.005M, 0.010M, 0.015M, 0.020M). Thereafter, slight increases were observed up to 0.020M. Antioxidative activity of all MRPs derived from ASA-Gly model systems sharply increased at 0.015M (P < 0.05) and slightly changes in activity were found with increasing metal concentrations up to 0.020M. Moreover, radical-scavenging activity correlated well with browning intensity and absorbance at 294 nm.
