Ascorbic acid, present in plasma from humans at concentrations of 50 to 200μmol/l, has multiple antioxidant properties. Structural modification of this vitamin by the introduction of lipophilic moieties has allowed to the development of ascorbate esters and ethers active as free radical quenchers. Thus, a new series of ascorbic acid analogues possessing one or two aromatic rings was prepared in an attempt to synthesize potent antioxidants with lipophilic properties. Substituted 3-hydroxy furan-2 (5H)-ones and in some cases, dihydrofuro [3, 4-b] pyrones were prepared. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity in vitro. So, 4-(4-methoxybenzoyl)-3-hydroxy-5-phenylfuran-2 (5H)-one 3e (IC50=3.06×10-4M) was found to be the most effective in scavenging the superoxide anion, whereas 4-benzoyl-3-hydroxy-5-(3, 4-dimethoxyphenyl) furan-2 (5H)-one 3d (IC50=1.38×10-4M) was the most active in inhibiting, lipid peroxidation.
抗坏血酸在人类血浆中的浓度为50至200μmol/l,具有多种抗氧化特性。通过引入脂溶性基团对这种维生素进行结构修饰,使得抗坏血酸酯和醚的开发成为可能,这些化合物在清除自由基方面活性良好。因此,合成了一系列具有一个或两个芳香环的抗坏血酸类似物,以期合成具有强效抗氧化性能的脂溶性化合物。制备了取代的3-羟基呋喃-2(5H)-酮,某些情况下还制备了二氢呋喃[3, 4-b]吡喃酮。合成的化合物在体外评估了其抗氧化活性。因此,4-(4-甲氧基苯甲酰)-3-羟基-5-苯基呋喃-2(5H)-酮3e(IC50=3.06×10^-4M)被发现对超氧阴离子的清除最为有效,而4-苯甲酰-3-羟基-5-(3, 4-二甲氧基苯基)呋喃-2(5H)-酮3d(IC50=1.38×10^-4M)在抑制脂质过氧化方面最为活跃。
