α-Aryl-N-aryl nitrones: Synthesis and screening of a new scaffold for cellular protection against an oxidative toxic stimulus
Matias,Biazolla,Cerchiaro,Keppler
, p. 232 - 239 (2016)
Nitrone-containing compounds are commonly employed as spin traps of free radical species in chemical and biological studies. Some molecules as α-phenyl-N-t-butyl nitrone (PBN) and its derivatives have been tested as potential drugs to treat oxidative stress related diseases, as Alzheimer and stroke for example. In this work we report the design and the synthesis of α-aryl-N-aryl nitrones and their cytoprotection profile on human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) under induced oxidative stress. All the nine synthesized nitrones showed a significant response at low micromolar concentration. The selected compound 8 (α-phenyl-N-phenyl nitrone) increased the reduced glutathione (GSH) levels by 65% and lowered the necrotic cell death from 25.8% to 3.8%. Based on our data, the designed highly conjugated nitrone double-bond skeleton can be considered as a good scaffold for further studies regarding oxidative stress-related diseases.

Gold-catalyzed reactions of cycloheptatrienes with nitrosoarenes yield nitrone derivatives efficiently. This reaction sequence enables us to develop gold-catalyzed aerobic oxidations of cycloheptatrienes to afford benzaldehyde derivatives using CuCl and nitrosoarenes as co-catalysts (10-30 mol %). Our density functional theory calculations support a novel nitroso-activated rearrangement, tropylium → benzylidene. With the same nitrosoarenes, we developed their gold-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 1]-annulations between nitrosobenzene and two enol ethers to yield 5-alkoxyisoxazolidines using 1,4-cyclohexadienes as hydrogen donors.

Kinugasa reactions hold potential for bioorthogonal chemistry in that the reagents can be biocompatible. Unlike other bioorthogonal reaction products, β-lactams are potentially reactive, which can be useful for synthesizing new biomaterials. A limiting factor for applications consists of slow reaction rates. Herein, we report an optimized aqueous copper(i)-catalyzed alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition involving rearrangement (CuANCR) with rate accelerations made possible by the use of surfactant micelles. We have investigated the factors that accelerate the aqueous CuANCR reaction and demonstrate enhanced modification of a model membrane-associated peptide. We discovered that lipids/surfactants and alkyne structure have a significant impact on the reaction rate, with biological lipids and electron-poor alkynes showing greater reactivity. These new findings have implications for the use of CuANCR for modifying integral membrane proteins as well as live cell labelling and other bioorthogonal applications.
Nitrone synthesis via pair electrochemical coupling of Nitro-Compounds with Benzyl Alcohol Derivatives
Salehzadeh, Hamid,Mashhadizadeh, Mohammad Hossein
, p. 9307 - 9312 (2019/07/08)
Here we report a paired electrochemical coupling of readily accessible nitro-compounds with benzyl alcohols to yield nitrone derivatives. In this work, electrochemical behavior of nitrobenzene and benzyl alcohol derivatives was studied by cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential coulommetry. Electrochemical reactions have been performed in aqueous/ethanol (or acetonitrile) solutions by employing common graphite electrodes and a simple controlled current protocol which can make this strategy more appealing than other conventional pathways.
