Fragmentation of ?-hydroxy hydroperoxides.

ABSTRACT: A ?-hydroxy hydroperoxide was obtained through base-catalyzed disproportionation of a hydroperoxy endoperoxide available by singlet oxygenation of cyclohepta-1,4-diene. Vitamins E and C induce fragmentation of this ?-hydroxy hydroperoxide generating aldehydes, especially in the presence of redox active metal ions such as those present in vivo, e.g., under conditions of "iron overload". This chemistry may contribute to the oxidative cleavage of polyunsaturated fatty acyls that produces similar aldehydes, which damage proteins and DNA through covalent adduction resulting in "oxidative injury".

Scalable procedure for the fragmentation of hydroperoxides mediated by copper and iron tetrafluoroborate salts.

Project description:An improved protocol for the formal elimination of propene from organic substrates is reported. This process entails the ozonolytic conversion of an alkene to a methoxy hydroperoxide which undergoes fragmentation mediated by copper and iron. The use of soluble Cu(BF4)2 and Fe(BF4)2 results in reproducible results up to a 100 gram scale.

Stereoelectronic effects in the fragmentation of ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazocarbonyl compounds.

Project description:A series of ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazocarbonyl compounds were prepared as fragmentation substrates to probe the hypothesis that steric interactions between the diazo ester and adjacent silyloxy group can play an important role in determining the success of fragmentations. Proper stereoelectronic alignment of the diazo ester and the departing hydroxyl group is necessary for productive fragmentation to occur.

Fragmentation of bicyclic ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazolactones as an approach to ynolides.

Project description:Medium-sized ynolides were prepared by the Lewis acid-mediated fragmentation of bicyclic ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazolactones in which the C?-C? bond is the ring fusion bond. Although these lactone fragmentation substrates reacted somewhat less efficiently than their carbocyclic counterparts, the fragmentation provided 11-membered ynolides in up to 84% yield. Unlike prior fragmentations of similar substrates, elevated temperatures were required to obtain optimum yields of the ynolide products. The ynolides reported herein have ring sizes of 10 or 11, which are the smallest reported to date.

Key Role for the 12-Hydroxy Group in the Negative Ion Fragmentation of Unconjugated C24 Bile Acids.

Project description:Host-gut microbial interactions contribute to human health and disease states and an important manifestation resulting from this cometabolism is a vast diversity of bile acids (BAs). There is increasing interest in using BAs as biomarkers to assess the health status of individuals and, therefore, an increased need for their accurate separation and identification. In this study, the negative ion fragmentation behaviors of C24 BAs were investigated by UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS. The step-by-step fragmentation analysis revealed a distinct fragmentation mechanism for the unconjugated BAs containing a 12-hydroxyl group. The unconjugated BAs lacking 12-hydroxylation fragmented via dehydration and dehydrogenation. In contrast, the 12-hydroxylated ones, such as deoxycholic acid (DCA) and cholic acid (CA), employed dissociation routes including dehydration, loss of carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide, and dehydrogenation. All fragmentations of the 12-hydroxylated unconjugated BAs, characterized by means of stable isotope labeled standards, were associated with the rotation of the carboxylate side chain and the subsequent rearrangements accompanied by proton transfer between 12-hydroxyl and 24-carboxyl groups. Compared to DCA, CA underwent further cleavages of the steroid skeleton. Accordingly, the effects of stereochemistry on the fragmentation pattern of CA were investigated using its stereoisomers. Based on the knowledge gained from the fragmentation analysis, a novel BA, 3?,7?,12?-trihydroxy-5?-cholanic acid, was identified in the postprandial urine samples of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. The analyses used in this study may contribute to a better understanding of the chemical diversity of BAs and the molecular basis of human liver diseases that involve BA synthesis, transport, and metabolism.

Fragmentation of a linoleate-derived ?-hydroperoxy-?,?-unsaturated epoxide to ?-hydroxy- and ?-oxo-alkenals involves a unique pseudo-symmetrical diepoxycarbinyl radical.

Project description:Many of the pathological effects of lipid peroxidation are mediated by aldehydes generated through fragmentation of lipid peroxides. Among these aldehydes, the ?-hydroxy- and ?-oxo-?,?-alkenals, e.g., 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and 4-oxo-2-nonenal (ONE), are especially prone to modifying proteins and DNA through covalent adduction. In addition the "mirror image" ?-hydroxy- and ?-oxo-?,?-alkenal phospholipids can serve as high-affinity ligands for biological receptors triggering pathology. Therefore, the mechanisms by which these aldehydes are generated in vivo are under intense scrutiny. We now report observations supporting the intermediacy of a unique pseudo-symmetrical diepoxycarbinyl radical that accounts for the coproduction of HNE, ONE, and their mirror image analogues 9-hydroxy-12-oxo-10(E)-dodecenoic acid and 9-keto-12-oxo-10-dodecenoic acid upon fragmentation of 13-hydroperoxy-cis-9,10-epoxyoctadeca-11-enoic acid.

Copper-catalyzed aerobic aliphatic C-H oxygenation with hydroperoxides.

Project description:We report herein Cu-catalyzed aerobic oxygenation of aliphatic C-H bonds with hydroperoxides, which proceeds by 1,5-H radical shift of putative oxygen-centered radicals (O-radicals) derived from hydroperoxides followed by trapping of the resulting carbon-centered radicals with molecular oxygen.

Effect of hydroperoxides on red blood cell membrane mechanical properties.

Project description:We investigate the effect of oxidative stress on red blood cell membrane mechanical properties in vitro using detailed analysis of the membrane thermal fluctuation spectrum. Two different oxidants, the cytosol-soluble hydrogen peroxide and the membrane-soluble cumene hydroperoxide, are used, and their effects on the membrane bending elastic modulus, surface tension, strength of confinement due to the membrane skeleton, and 2D shear elastic modulus are measured. We find that both oxidants alter significantly the membrane elastic properties, but their effects differ qualitatively and quantitatively. While hydrogen peroxide mainly affects the elasticity of the membrane protein skeleton (increasing the membrane shear modulus), cumene hydroperoxide has an impact on both membrane skeleton and lipid bilayer mechanical properties, as can be seen from the increased values of the shear and bending elastic moduli. The biologically important implication of these results is that the effects of oxidative stress on the biophysical properties, and hence the physiological functions, of the cell membrane depend on the nature of the oxidative agent. Thermal fluctuation spectroscopy provides a means of characterizing these different effects, potentially in a clinical milieu.

NMR and Computational Studies as Analytical and High-Resolution Structural Tool for Complex Hydroperoxides and Diastereomeric Endo-Hydroperoxides of Fatty Acids in Solution-Exemplified by Methyl Linolenate.

Project description:A combination of selective 1D Total Correlation Spectroscopy (TOCSY) and 1H-13C Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation (HMBC) NMR techniques has been employed for the identification of methyl linolenate primary oxidation products without the need for laborious isolation of the individual compounds. Complex hydroperoxides and diastereomeric endo-hydroperoxides were identified and quantified. Strongly deshielded C-O-O-H 1H-NMR resonances of diastereomeric endo-hydroperoxides in the region of 8.8 to 9.6 ppm were shown to be due to intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions of the hydroperoxide proton with an oxygen atom of the five-member endo-peroxide ring. These strongly deshielded resonances were utilized as a new method to derive, for the first time, three-dimensional structures with an assignment of pairs of diastereomers in solution with the combined use of 1H-NMR chemical shifts, Density Functional Theory (DFT), and Our N-layered Integrated molecular Orbital and molecular Mechanics (ONIOM) calculations.

Destroy and exploit: catalyzed removal of hydroperoxides from the endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:Peroxidases are enzymes that reduce hydroperoxide substrates. In many cases, hydroperoxide reduction is coupled to the formation of a disulfide bond, which is transferred onto specific acceptor molecules, the so-called reducing substrates. As such, peroxidases control the spatiotemporal distribution of diffusible second messengers such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and generate new disulfides. Members of two families of peroxidases, peroxiredoxins (Prxs) and glutathione peroxidases (GPxs), reside in different subcellular compartments or are secreted from cells. This review discusses the properties and physiological roles of PrxIV, GPx7, and GPx8 in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of higher eukaryotic cells where H2O2 and-possibly-lipid hydroperoxides are regularly produced. Different peroxide sources and reducing substrates for ER peroxidases are critically evaluated. Peroxidase-catalyzed detoxification of hydroperoxides coupled to the productive use of disulfides, for instance, in the ER-associated process of oxidative protein folding, appears to emerge as a common theme. Nonetheless, in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that individual peroxidases serve specific, nonoverlapping roles in ER physiology.
