Anti-/Pro-Oxidant Behavior of Naturally Occurring Molecules in Polymers and Biopolymers: A Brief Review
2019
Polymers and biopolymers are continuously subjected to the action of different stress factors, such as oxygen, heat, UV light, mechanical stress, humidity, etc., during their processing and service life, undergoing overall oxidative degradation, that causes performance and property deterioration. To improve the resistance at high temperatures and long-term weatherability of the polymers and biopolymers, usually, during their manufacturing, synthetic antioxidants and UV-light stabilizers are added. In the past decade, several concerns related to the impact of the synthetic stabilizers have emerged, and to reduce their negative effect on human health and the environment, their replacement wit…
Phenolic and acetylenic metabolites from Artemisia assoana
1987
Abstract Nine flavones, three coumarins, two flavone glycosides, p-hydroxyacetophenone and methyl caffeate have been isolated from the aerial parts of Artemisia assoana. Six diacetylenic spiroketal enol-ethers, a mixture of n-alkyl p-coumarates and a new phenylpropanoid metabolite, sinapyl alcohol diisovalerate, have been isolated from root extracts of the same plant. 1H and 13C NMR spectra of some of these compounds are given and taxonomic aspects are discussed.
Oxidative oligomerization of cyclodextrin-complexed bifunctional phenols catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase in water
2000
The HRP-catalyzed oligomerization of hydrophobic bifunctional phenols in water was realized by the use of 2,6-di-O-methylated β-cyclodextrin. The molecular weights of the resulting oligomers were in the same region as they were reached by conventional HRP-catalyzed oligomerizations in water/dioxane-mixtures. The polymerizable moieties, maleimide and methacrylamide, were not affected during the oligomerization process, as proofed by NMR, MALDI-TOF and FT-IR measurements. It was therefore possible to get soluble functionalized oligomers, which were crosslinked via radical copolymerization with suitable components (styrene, MMA) or heating.
Biopartitioning micellar chromatography: An alternative high-throughput method for assessing the ecotoxicity of anilines and phenols
2007
An investigation of the use of the chromatographic retention (log k) as an in vitro approach for modelling the toxicity to Fathead Minnows of anilines and phenols is developed. A data set of 65 compounds with available experimental toxicity data was used. Log k data at three pH values were used for the compounds classification and two groups or 'MODEs' were identified. For one 'MODE' a quantitative retention-activity relationship (QRAR) model was calculated. Finally, it was used to estimate the toxicity to Fathead minnows of anilines and phenols for which experimental data are not available. These estimations were compared to those obtained from another toxicity (to Tetrahymena pyriformis) …
Contact probe voltammetry for in situ monitoring of the reactivity of phenolic tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) compounds with ROS
2015
The application of an in situ electrochemical contact probe methodology for monitoring reactivity of antioxidant polyphenolic compounds in tomato fruits is described. Upon electrochemical generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), characteristic voltammetric responses were recorded for compounds resulting from the reaction of such species with tomato compounds. This suggests that new electrochemically oxidizable compounds are generated from the oxidation of highly reactive polyphenolic compounds with ROS. Therefore, an evaluation of the antioxidant capacity of such species could be made from voltammetric data for different tomato varieties.
Sesquiterpene lactones from Artemisia hispanica
1989
Abstract Extraction of aerial parts of Artemisia hispanica and chromatographic separation yielded the eight known sesquiterpene lactones costunolide, artemorin, anhydroverlotorin, tamaulipin A, reynosin, santamarin, matricarin and deacetylmatricarin, the flavone cirsimaritin, zingerone, 1-hydroxy-α-bisabololoxide A acetate and the new germacranolide 2α-hydroxyartemorin.
Phenylethanoid glycosides from Prostanthera melissifolia
1999
Abstract Six phenylethanoid glycosides were isolated from aerial parts of Prostanthera melissifolia, together with apigenin and ursolic acid. The glycosides were characterized by spectral methods as martynoside, isomartynoside, verbascoside, isoverbascoside, betonyoside F and isobetonyoside F, the latter being a new natural product.
Sensitive and selective determination of metabolically formed trans -dihydrodiols and phenols of benzo[ a ]pyrene in water and urine samples by HPLC …
1998
A method has been developed to separate hydroxylated metabolites of the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon benzo[a]pyrene, i. e. trans-4,5-, 7,8-, 9,10-dihydrodiol and 1-, 3-, 7-, and 9-phenol, by HPLC with amperometric detection employing an isocratic methanol/water eluent (70:30, v/v) containing 0.5 g/L sulfuric acid and 1 g/L lithium perchlorate. Compared with the usually applied fluorescence (λex = 265 nm, λem = 460 nm) and ultraviolet (λ = 265 nm) detection, the amperometric technique is about 2–12 times more sensitive for the determination of all metabolites investigated. The method was applied to the determination of the seven metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene in different wate…
Die Reaktion von 2-Halogenethoxycarbonyl-Verbindungen mit tertiären Phosphanen
1979
(2-Bromethoxycarbonyl)aminosauren 1, einschlieslich der Sarkosin-Derivate 13 und 15, reagieren mit Methyldiphenylphosphan zu den 2-Phosphonioethoxycarbonyl-Verbindungen, welche unter milden basischen Bedingungen zu den freien Aminoverbindungen gespalten werden. Die gleiche Schutzgruppenumwandlung gelingt an 2-Bromethoxycarbonyl-geschutzten Alkoholen 3. Phenolen 4 und den sekundaren Aminen 11 und 12 sowie an Aminosaure- und Peptid-(2-bromethylestern) nicht. In diesen Fallen bildet sich das Ethylen-1,2-bisphosphoniumsalz 6. Reaction of 2-Haloethoxycarbonyl Compounds with Tertiary Phosphanes (2-Bromoethoxycarbonyl)amino acids 1 including the sarcosine derivatives 13 and 15 react with methyldip…
Phenolic Compounds from Lactuca viminea L.
1992
Abstract The aerial part of Lactuca viminea L. was examined for the presence of phenolic compounds. Six different flavonoids were isolated and identified by UV spectra, TLC, HPLCDAD , 1H NMR and 13C NMR. They were identified as apigenin, luteolin, quercetin, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, quercetin-3-O-glucoside and luteolin-7-O-glucuronide-6″methyl ester. Three phenolic acids were also detected: caffeic, ferulic and chlorogenic acid.
