Lipid antioxidants phenolic saturated fatty acid esters were synthesized in high yields and short reaction times using the corresponding ethyl fatty acid esters, lipase from Candida Antarctica, vacuum and no solvent. Phenolic esters with mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids (EPA and DHA) were also prepared.

- Chemoenzymatic synthesis of hydroxytyrosol monoesters and their suppression effect on nitric oxide production stimulated by lipopolysaccharides
-
Fatty acid monoesters of hydroxytyrosol [2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanol] were synthesized in two steps from tyrosol (4-hydroxyphenylethanol) by successive Candida antarctica lipase B-catalyzed chemoselective acylation on the primary aliphatic hydroxy group over phenolic hydroxy group in tyrosol, and 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX)-mediated hydroxylation adjacent to the remaining free phenolic hydroxy group. Examination of their suppression effects on nitric oxide production stimulated by lipopolysaccharides in RAW264.7 cells showed that hydroxytyrosol butyrate exhibited the highest inhibition (IC50 7.0 μM) among the tested compounds.

- Tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol derivatives as antitrypanosomal and antileishmanial agents
-
Trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis keep being a real challenge for health and development of African countries. Existing treatments have considerable side effects and increase resistance of the parasites. We have measured antitrypanosomal and antileishmanial activity of natural phenols, tyrosol (TYR) and hydroxytyrosol (HT) and several of their esters and metabolites. We found significant IC50 values against Trypanosoma brucei for HT decanoate ester and HT dodecanoate ester (0.6 and 0.36 μM, respectively). This represents a large increase in activity with respect to HT (79 and 132 fold, respectively). Moreover, both compounds displayed a high selectivity index against MRC-5, a non-tumoral human cell line (118 and 106, respectively). Then, we synthesized a focused library of compounds to explore structure-activity. We found the ether and thiourea analogs of HT decanoate ester and HT dodecanoate ester also showed IC50 values against T. brucei in the low micromolar range. In conclusion, the di-ortho phenolic ring and medium size alkyl chain are essential for activity whereas the nature of the chemical bond among them seems less important.

- Carbon nanotubes supported tyrosinase in the synthesis of lipophilic hydroxytyrosol and dihydrocaffeoyl catechols with antiviral activity against DNA and RNA viruses
-
Hydroxytyrosol and dihydrocaffeoyl catechols with lipophilic properties have been synthesized in high yield using tyrosinase immobilized on multi-walled carbon nanotubes by the Layer-by-Layer technique. All synthesized catechols were evaluated against a large panel of DNA and RNA viruses, including Poliovirus type 1, Echovirus type 9, Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), Coxsackievirus type B3 (Cox B3), Adenovirus type 2 and type 5 and Cytomegalovirus (CMV). A significant antiviral activity was observed in the inhibition of HSV-1, HSV-2, Cox B3 and CMV. The mechanism of action of the most active dihydrocaffeoyl derivative was investigated against a model of HSV-1 infection.

- Tyrosinase and Layer-by-Layer supported tyrosinases in the synthesis of lipophilic catechols with antiinfluenza activity
-
Catechol derivatives with lipophilic properties have been selectively synthesized by tyrosinase in high yield avoiding long and tedious protection/deprotection steps usually required in traditional procedures. The synthesis was effective also with immobilized tyrosinase able to perform for more runs. The novel catechols were evaluated against influenza A virus, that continue to represent a severe threat worldwide. A significant antiviral activity was observed in derivatives characterized by antioxidant activity and long carbon alkyl side-chains, suggesting the possibility of a new inhibition mechanism based on both redox and lipophilic properties.

- Lipophilic hydroxytyrosol esters: Fatty acid conjugates for potential topical administration
-
Hydroxytyrosol is a potent antioxidant natural molecule isolated from olive leaves and fruits. The presence of three hydroxy groups in its structure poses a limit for the topical application of this lead compound. A set of hydroxytyrosol conjugates with fatty acids at different molecular weights were synthesized under mild conditions. The topical delivery features of this new set of antioxidant molecules were evaluated as a function of their permeation profiles through the human stratum corneum and viable epidermis membranes. A dependence on their partition coefficients, their molecular weights, and their isometric configurations was then postulated. Encouraging results prompt further investigations on the polyfunctional role that hydroxytyrosol conjugates could have as agents in both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant therapies.

- Hydroxytyrosol lipophilic analogues: Enzymatic synthesis, radical scavenging activity and DNA oxidative damage protection
-
The olive oil phenol hydroxytyrosol (3), as well its metabolite homovanillic alcohol (4), were subjected to chemoselective lipase-catalysed acylations, affording with good yield 10 derivatives (5-14) bearing C2, C3, C4, C10 and C18 acyl chains at C-1. Hydroxytyrosol (3) and its lipophilic derivatives showed very good DPPH{radical dot} radical scavenging activity. Compounds 3, 4 and their lipophilic analogues 5-14 were subjected to the atypical Comet test on whole blood cells: 3 and its analogues 5 and 6, with little hydrophobic character (log P ≤ 1.20), showed a good protective effect against H2O2 induced oxidative DNA damage. The homovanillic alcohol 4 and its analogues 10-14 resulted scarcely effective both as radical scavengers and antioxidant agents.
