Investigation of singlet oxygen reactivity towards propofol.
The reaction between the anaesthetic agent 2,6-diisopropylphenol (propofol, PPF) and singlet oxygen (1O2) has been investigated in aqueous solution by means of HPLC, GC, absorption spectroscopy and laser flash photolysis with infrared luminescence detection. The rate constants for the physical and chemical quenching of 1O2 by PPF (kPPF) are found to be 2.66 x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1) and approximately...
متن کاملReactivity towards singlet oxygen of propofol inside liposomes and neuronal cells.
Singlet oxygen (1O2), a reactive oxygen species, has been found to be implicated in many cellular events and pathological disorders. Herein, we investigated the reactivity of 1O2 towards the anaesthetic agent propofol (PPF) encapsulated within DMPC liposomes. By time resolved luminescence, the rate constant of 1O2 quenching by PPF was evaluated, depending on the location of the sensitizer, with...
متن کاملStereoselective photooxidation of enecarbamates: reactivity of ozone vs singlet oxygen.
[reaction: see text]. Oxazolidinone-functionalized enecarbamates show contrasting behavior upon oxidation by singlet oxygen and by ozone. The observed stereoselectivity difference indicates that the oxidation with ozone is subject to classic steric effects, whereas the very high selectivity in the photooxidation with singlet oxygen is derived from vibrational deactivation.
متن کاملProbing the reactivity of singlet oxygen with purines
The reaction of singlet molecular oxygen with purine DNA bases is investigated by computational means. We support the formation of a transient endoperoxide for guanine and by classical molecular dynamics simulations we demonstrate that the formation of this adduct does not affect the B-helicity. We thus identify the guanine endoperoxide as a key intermediate, confirming a low-temperature nuclea...
متن کاملFlavonoids in Microheterogeneous Media, Relationship between Their Relative Location and Their Reactivity towards Singlet Oxygen
In this work, the relationship between the molecular structure of three flavonoids (kaempferol, quercetin and morin), their relative location in microheterogeneous media (liposomes and erythrocyte membranes) and their reactivity against singlet oxygen was studied. The changes observed in membrane fluidity induced by the presence of these flavonoids and the influence of their lipophilicity/hydro...
