Abstract
Three new α-tocopherol thiophene derivatives were efficiently synthesized, characterized and used for the first time as chain-breaking antioxidants for the inhibition of the autoxidation of reference oxidizable substrates. The rate constant of the reaction with alkylperoxyl (ROO˙) radicals and the stoichiometry of radical trapping (n) for the thiophene-tocopherol compounds were determined by measuring the oxygen consumption during the autoxidation of styrene or isopropylbenzene, using a differential pressure transducer. The measurement of the reaction with ROO˙ radicals in an apolar solvent at 30 °C showed inhibition rate constants (kinh) in the order of 104 M-1 s-1. To rationalise the kinetic results, the effect of the thiophene ring on the H-atom donation by O-H groups of the functionalized tocopherols was investigated by theoretical calculations. The importance of noncovalent interactions (including an unusual O˙⋯S bond) for the stability of the conformers has been shown, and the O-H bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE(OH)) of these derivatives was determined. Finally, the photophysical properties of these new compounds were investigated to understand if the addition of thiophene groups changes the absorption or emission spectra of the tocopherol skeleton for their possible application as luminescent molecular probes.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a pervasive non-apoptotic form of cell death highly relevant in various degenerative diseases and malignancies. The hallmark of ferroptosis is uncontrolled and overwhelming peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in membrane phospholipids, which eventually leads to rupture of the plasma membrane. Ferroptosis is unique in that it is essentially a spontaneous, uncatalyzed chemical process based on perturbed iron and redox homeostasis contributing to the cell death process, but that it is nonetheless modulated by many metabolic nodes that impinge on the cells' susceptibility to ferroptosis. Among the various nodes affecting ferroptosis sensitivity, several have emerged as promising candidates for pharmacological intervention, rendering ferroptosis-related proteins attractive targets for the treatment of numerous currently incurable diseases. Herein, the current members of a Germany-wide research consortium focusing on ferroptosis research, as well as key external experts in ferroptosis who have made seminal contributions to this rapidly growing and exciting field of research, have gathered to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review on ferroptosis. Specific topics include: basic mechanisms, in vivo relevance, specialized methodologies, chemical and pharmacological tools, and the potential contribution of ferroptosis to disease etiopathology and progression. We hope that this article will not only provide established scientists and newcomers to the field with an overview of the multiple facets of ferroptosis, but also encourage additional efforts to characterize further molecular pathways modulating ferroptosis, with the ultimate goal to develop novel pharmacotherapies to tackle the various diseases associated with - or caused by - ferroptosis.

Abstract
Radical-trapping antioxidants (RTAs) are an indispensable class of additive used to preserve hydrocarbon materials from oxidative degradation. Materials that are regularly subjected to elevated temperatures where autoxidation is self-initiated (i.e., >120 °C) require high concentrations of RTA for protection. Not only is this costly, but it can negatively impact material performance. Herein we show that inhibition of the autoxidation of a model hydrocarbon (n-hexadecane) by phenothiazine (PTZ) at ≥160 °C can be greatly enhanced by the incorporation of either 1° or 2° alkyl substituents in the 3- and/or 7-positions of the scaffold. Structure-reactivity studies, product analyses and computations suggest that this results from hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) from the benzylic carbon of these alkyl substituents in the PTZ-derived aminyl radical intermediate. The resultant iminoquinone methide can then undergo further radical-trapping reactions, depending on the nature of the alkyl substituent. Similar structure-reactivity relationships are observed for the phenoxazine (PNX) scaffold. These results not only have significant implications for the design and development of new high-temperature RTA technology, but also for understanding aminic RTA activity at elevated temperatures. Specifically, they suggest that a stoichiometric model better accounts for the RTA activity of aromatic amines in saturated hydrocarbons than the widely accepted catalytic model.

Abstract
Molybdenum dithiocarbamates (MDTCs) are indispensable lubricant additives. Although their role as antiwear agents is well established, they have also been attributed antioxidant properties that are not understood. MDTCs do not inhibit autoxidation, but they markedly enhance the capacity of diphenylamines (DPAs)─ubiquitous radical-trapping antioxidants (RTAs)─to do so. We find this synergy to be evident not only at elevated temperatures (160 °C in n-hexadecane) but also at moderate temperatures, where autoxidations can be continuously monitored and kinetics more easily interpreted (100 °C in squalane). Interestingly, the synergy disappeared in an unsaturated hydrocarbon (n-hexadec-1-ene), where the RTA activity of the DPA is known to result from the diarylnitroxide derived therefrom. Autoxidations of squalane carried out in the presence of the diarylnitroxide─wherein it is a poor inhibitor─were much better inhibited in the presence of MDTC, suggesting that it converts the nitroxide to (a) more competent RTA(s). Indeed, preparative experiments revealed two species: DPA and a DPA dimer into which a single oxygen atom had been incorporated. This conversion is accelerated by the oxidation of MDTC to a dioxo molybdenum species. A mechanism is proposed to account for these observations, and the implications of our findings and their interpretation are discussed.

Abstract
The use of nanomaterials as inhibitors of the autoxidation of organic materials is attracting tremendous interest in petrochemistry, food storage, and biomedical applications. Metal oxide materials and CeO2 in particular represent one of the most investigated inorganic materials with promising radical trapping and antioxidant abilities. However, despite the importance, examples of the CeO2 material's ability to retard the autoxidation of organic substrates are still lacking, together with a plausible chemical mechanism for radical trapping. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new CeO2-derived nanoporous material (NCeONP) with excellent autoxidation inhibiting properties due to its ability to catalyze the cross-dismutation of alkyl peroxyl (ROO•) and hydroperoxyl (HOO•) radicals, generated in the system by the addition of the pro-aromatic hydrocarbon γ-terpinene. The antioxidant ability of NCeONP is superior to that of other nanosized metal oxides, including TiO2, ZnO, ZrO2, and pristine CeO2 nanoparticles. Studies of the reaction with a sacrificial reductant allowed us to propose a mechanism of inhibition consisting of H atom transfer from HOO• to the metal oxides (MOx + HOO• → MOx-H• + O2), followed by the release of the H atom to an ROO• radical (MOx-H• + ROO• → MOx + ROOH). Besides identifying NCeONP as a promising material for developing effective antioxidants, our study provides the first evidence of a radical mechanism that can be exploited to develop novel solid-state autoxidation inhibitors.

Potent Antioxidant and Anti-Tyrosinase Activity of Butein and Homobutein Probed by Molecular Kinetic and Mechanistic Studies. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1763. [PMID: 37760066 PMCID: PMC10525132 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12091763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Butein (BU) and homobutein (HB) are bioactive polyhydroxylated chalcones widespread in dietary plants, whose antioxidant properties require mechanistic definition. They were investigated by inhibited autoxidation kinetic studies of methyl linoleate in Triton™ X-100 micelles at pH 7.4, 37 °C. Butein had kinh = (3.0 ± 0.9) × 104 M-1s-1 showing a chain-breaking mechanism with higher antioxidant activity than reference α-tocopherol (kinh = (2.2 ± 0.6) × 104 M-1s-1), particularly concerning the stoichiometry or peroxyl radical trapping n = 3.7 ± 1.1 vs. 2.0 for tocopherol. Homobutein had kinh = (2.8 ± 0.9) × 103 M-1s-1, pairing the relative BDEOH measured by radical equilibration EPR as 78.4 ± 0.2 kcal/mol for BU and estimated as 82.6 kcal/mol for HB. The inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase (mTYR) by HB and BU was also investigated. BU gives a reversible uncompetitive inhibition of monophenolase reaction with KI' = 9.95 ± 2.69 µM and mixed-type diphenolase inhibition with KI = 3.30 ± 0.75 µM and KI' = 18.75 ± 5.15 µM, while HB was nearly competitive toward both mono- and diphenolase with respective KI of 2.76 ± 0.70 µM and 2.50 ± 1.56 µM. IC50 values (monophenolase/diphenolase at 1 mM substrate) were 10.88 ± 2.19 µM/15.20 ± 1.25 µM, 14.78 ± 1.05 µM/12.36 ± 2.00 µM, and 33.14 ± 5.03 µM/18.27 ± 3.42 µM, respectively, for BU, HB, and reference kojic acid. Molecular docking studies confirmed the mechanism. Results indicate very potent antioxidant activity for BU and potent anti-tyrosinase activity for both chalcones, which is discussed in relation to bioactivity toward protection from skin disorders and food oxidative spoilage.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LP) is the most important type of oxidative-radical damage in biological systems, owing to its interplay with ferroptosis and to its role in secondary damage to other biomolecules, such as proteins. The chemistry of LP and its biological consequences are reviewed with focus on the kinetics of the various processes, which helps understand the mechanisms and efficacy of antioxidant strategies. The main types of antioxidants are discussed in terms of structure-activity rationalization, with focus on mechanism and kinetics, as well as on their potential role in modulating ferroptosis. Phenols, pyri(mi)dinols, antioxidants based on heavy chalcogens (Se and Te), diarylamines, ascorbate and others are addressed, along with the latest unconventional antioxidant strategies based on the double-sided role of the superoxide/hydroperoxyl radical system.

Abstract
Nitroxides, also known as nitroxyl radicals, are long-lived or stable radicals with the general structure R1R2N-O•. The spin distribution over the nitroxide N and O atoms contributes to the thermodynamic stability of these radicals. The presence of bulky N-substituents R1 and R2 prevents nitroxide radical dimerization, ensuring their kinetic stability. Despite their reactivity toward various transient C radicals, some nitroxides can be easily stored under air at room temperature. Furthermore, nitroxides can be oxidized to oxoammonium salts (R1R2N═O+) or reduced to anions (R1R2N-O-), enabling them to act as valuable oxidants or reductants depending on their oxidation state. Therefore, they exhibit interesting reactivity across all three oxidation states. Due to these fascinating properties, nitroxides find extensive applications in diverse fields such as biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, materials science, and organic synthesis. This review focuses on the versatile applications of nitroxides in organic synthesis. For their use in other important fields, we will refer to several review articles. The introductory part provides a brief overview of the history of nitroxide chemistry. Subsequently, the key methods for preparing nitroxides are discussed, followed by an examination of their structural diversity and physical properties. The main portion of this review is dedicated to oxidation reactions, wherein parent nitroxides or their corresponding oxoammonium salts serve as active species. It will be demonstrated that various functional groups (such as alcohols, amines, enolates, and alkanes among others) can be efficiently oxidized. These oxidations can be carried out using nitroxides as catalysts in combination with various stoichiometric terminal oxidants. By reducing nitroxides to their corresponding anions, they become effective reducing reagents with intriguing applications in organic synthesis. Nitroxides possess the ability to selectively react with transient radicals, making them useful for terminating radical cascade reactions by forming alkoxyamines. Depending on their structure, alkoxyamines exhibit weak C-O bonds, allowing for the thermal generation of C radicals through reversible C-O bond cleavage. Such thermally generated C radicals can participate in various radical transformations, as discussed toward the end of this review. Furthermore, the application of this strategy in natural product synthesis will be presented.

Abstract
Use of coantioxidant systems is a prospective way to increase the effectiveness of antioxidant species in tissue repair and regeneration. In this paper, we introduce a novel scheme of a reactive oxygen species (ROS) trap and neutralization during self-assembly of supramolecular melamine barbiturate material. The performed reaction chain mimics the biological process of ROS generation in key stages and enables one to obtain stable hydroperoxyl and organic radicals in a melamine barbiturate structure. Melamine barbiturate also neutralizes hydroxyl radicals, and the effectiveness of the radical trap is controlled with ROS scavenger incorporation. The number of radicals dramatically increases during light-inducing and depends on pH. The proposed scheme of the ROS trap and neutralization opens a way to the use of supramolecular assemblies as a component of coantioxidant systems and a source of organic radicals.

Abstract
Hydroxylamines, represented by 1-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (TEMPOH), are widely involved as active species in various chemical and electrochemical oxidations. The electrochemical behavior of TEMPOH is crucial to understanding the mechanisms of TEMPO-mediated redox sequences. However, compared to abundant studies on TEMPOH electrochemistry in aqueous solutions, the sole value of its oxidation potential Eox(TEMPOH) in organic solutions was reported to be 0.7 V (vs Fc in acetonitrile), seemingly conflicting with experimentally observed facile oxidation of TEMPOH. Herein, the electrochemistry of TEMPOH derivatives in acetonitrile was revisited, featuring much smaller oxidation potentials (about 0 V) than literature ones. Acid/base effects and kinetic studies lent credibility to these new values. Such a 0.7 V energy discrepancy impelled us to review the thermodynamic properties and oxidation mechanisms of TEMPOH deduced from the old value.

Abstract
The reaction of the 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (dpph•) with resveratrol in methanol (kMeOH = 192 M-1 s-1) is greatly accelerated in the presence of stable nitroxyl radical TEMPO• (kmixMeOH = 1.4 × 103 M-1 s-1). This synergistic effect is surprising because TEMPO• alone reacts with dpph• relatively slowly (kS = 31 M-1 s-1 in methanol and 0.03 M-1 s-1 in nonpolar ethyl acetate). We propose a putative mechanism in which a mutual activation occurs within the acid-base pair TEMPO•/RSV to the resveratrol (RSV) anion and TEMPOH•+ radical cation, both being extremely fast scavengers of the dpph• radical. The fast initial reaction is followed by a much slower but continuous decay of dpph• because a nitroxyl radical is recovered from the TEMPOnium cation, which is reduced directly by RSV/RSV- to TEMPO• or recovered indirectly via a reaction with methanol, producing TEMPOH subsequently oxidized by dpph• to TEMPO•.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression is up-regulated in inflammatory tissues and many premalignant and malignant tumors. Assessment of COX-2 protein in vivo, therefore, promises to be a powerful strategy to distinguish pathologic cells from normal cells in a complex disease setting. Herein, we report the first redox-activatable COX-2 probe, fluorocoxib Q (FQ), for in vivo molecular imaging of pathogenesis. FQ inhibits COX-2 selectively in purified enzyme and cell-based assays. FQ exhibits extremely low fluorescence and displays time- and concentration-dependent fluorescence enhancement upon exposure to a redox environment. FQ enters the cells freely and binds to the COX-2 enzyme. FQ exhibits high circulation half-life and metabolic stability sufficient for target site accumulation and demonstrates COX-2-targeted uptake and retention in cancer cells and pathologic tissues. Once taken up, it undergoes redox-mediated transformation into a fluorescent compound fluorocoxib Q-H that results in high signal-to-noise contrast and differentiates pathologic tissues from non-pathologic tissues for real-time in vivo imaging.

Abstract
This review highlights the progress made in recent years in understanding the mechanism of action of nanomaterials with antioxidant activity and in the chemical methods used to evaluate their activity. Nanomaterials represent one of the most recent frontiers in the research for improved antioxidants, but further development is hampered by a poor characterization of the ''antioxidant activity'' property and by using oversimplified chemical methods. Inhibited autoxidation experiments provide valuable information about the interaction with the most important radicals involved in the lipid oxidation, namely alkylperoxyl and hydroperoxyl radicals, and demonstrate unambiguously the ability to stop the oxidation of organic materials. It is proposed that autoxidation methods should always complement (and possibly replace) the use of assays based on the quenching of stable radicals (such as DPPH• and ABTS•+). The mechanisms leading to the inhibition of the autoxidation (sacrificial and catalytic radical trapping antioxidant activity) are described in the context of nanoantioxidants. Guidelines for the selection of the appropriate testing conditions and of meaningful kinetic analysis are also given.

Abstract
The prediction and/or rationalization of diarylamine radical-trapping antioxidant (RTA) activity at the elevated temperatures where they are most useful presents a significant challenge, precluding the development of new technology. Whilst structure-activity relationships at ambient temperatures are well established, their predictive capacity at elevated temperatures is poor due to competing reactions. A striking example involves phenoxazine, which is a superior RTA relative to its sulfur analog phenothiazine at ambient temperature (e.g. k = 3.9 × 107 vs. 7.6 × 106 M-1 s-1 at 37 °C, respectively), but is demonstrably inferior at elevated temperatures. Despite being inherently less oxidizable in electrochemical experiments and high-accuracy computations, phenoxazine is more rapidly consumed than phenothiazine in autoxidations at 160 °C - a result which we attribute to a lower reorganization energy barrier to oxidation. Given these observations, we surmised that incorporation of an electronegative N-atom into the phenoxazine ring system would decrease the driving force for oxidation and 'rescue' its activity. Indeed, this was found to be the case for nitrogen incorporation at any position, regardless of the impact on the inherent RTA activity. Analogous experiments were carried out on phenothiazines into which nitrogen atoms were incorporated, revealing little benefit at 160 °C. These results suggest that for highly reactive diarylamines (i.e. those with k > 106 M-1 s-1), further enhancements in reactivity do not materially improve their ability to inhibit hydrocarbon autoxidation at elevated temperatures. Instead, their stability to one-electron oxidation determines their efficacy.

Abstract
Autoxidation limits the longevity of essentially all hydrocarbons and materials made therefrom - including us. The radical chain reaction responsible often leads to complex mixtures of hydroperoxides, alkyl peroxides, alcohols, carbonyls and carboxylic acids, which change the physical properties of the material - be it a lubricating oil or biological membrane. Autoxidation is inhibited by addtitives such as radical-trapping antioxidants, which intervene directly in the chain reaction. Herein we review the most salient features of autoxidation and its inhibition, emphasizing concepts and mechanistic considerations important in understanding this chemistry across the wide range of contexts in which it is relevant.

Abstract
Melanins are stable and non-toxic biomaterials with a great potential as chemopreventive agents for diseases connected with oxidative stress, but the mechanism of their antioxidant action is unclear. Herein, we show that polydopamine (PDA), a well-known synthetic melanin, becomes an excellent trap for alkylperoxyl radicals (ROO. , typically formed during autoxidation of lipid substrates) in the presence of hydroperoxyl radicals (HOO. ). The key reaction explaining this peculiar antioxidant activity is the reduction of the ortho-quinone moieties present in PDA by the reaction with HOO. . This reaction occurs via a H-atom transfer mechanism, as demonstrated by the large kinetic solvent effect of the reaction of a model quinone (3,5-di-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone) with HOO. (k=1.5×107 and 1.1×105 M-1 s-1 in PhCl and MeCN). The chemistry disclosed herein is an important step to rationalize the redox-mediated bioactivity of melanins and of quinones.

Abstract
Phthalimide N-oxyl (PINO) is a potent hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) catalyst that can be generated electrochemically from N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI). However, catalyst decomposition has limited its application. This paper details mechanistic studies of the generation and decomposition of PINO under electrochemical conditions. Voltammetric data, observations from bulk electrolysis, and computational studies suggest two primary aspects. First, base-promoted formation of PINO from NHPI occurs via multiple-site concerted proton-electron transfer (MS-CPET). Second, PINO decomposition occurs by at least two second-order paths, one of which is greatly enhanced by base. Optimal catalytic efficiency in PINO-catalyzed oxidations occurs in the presence of bases whose corresponding conjugate acids have pKa's in the range of ∼11-15, which strikes a balance between promoting PINO formation and minimizing its decay.

Abstract
Alkylated diphenylamines are among the most efficacious radical-trapping antioxidants (RTAs) for applications at elevated temperatures since they are able to trap multiple radical equivalents due to catalytic cycles involving persistent diphenylnitroxide and diphenylaminyl radical intermediates. We have previously shown that some heterocyclic diarylamine RTAs possess markedly greater efficacy than typical alkylated diphenylamines, and herein, report on our efforts to identify optimal alkyl substitution of the scaffold, which we had found to be the ideal compromise between reactivity and stability. Interestingly, the structure-activity relationships differ dramatically with temperature: para-alkyl substitution slightly increased reactivity and stoichiometry at 37 and 100 °C due to more favorable (stereo)electronic effects and corresponding diarylaminyl/diarylnitroxide formation, while ortho-alkyl substitution slightly decreased both reactivity and stoichiometry. No such trends were evident at 160 °C; instead, the compounds were segregated into two groups based on the presence/absence of benzylic C-H bonds. Electron spin resonance spectroscopy indicates that increased efficacy was associated with lesser diarylnitroxide formation, and deuterium-labeling suggests that this is due to abstraction of the benzylic H atom, precluding nitroxide formation. Computations predict that this reaction path is competitive with established fates of the diarylaminyl radical, thereby minimizing the formation of off-cycle products and leading to significant gains in high-temperature RTA efficacy.

Abstract
A functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) catalyst applied to the sequential one-pot oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids controls the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst. The conversion of alcohols to aldehydes was acquired through aerobic oxidation using a well-known amino-oxy radical-functionalized MOF. In the same flask, a simple filtration of the radical MOF with mild heating of the solution completely altered the reaction media, providing radical scavenger-free conditions suitable for the autoxidation of the aldehydes formed in the first step to carboxylic acids. The mutually exclusive radical-catalyzed aerobic oxidation (the first step with MOF) and radical-inhibited autoxidation (the second step without MOF) are sequentially achieved in a one-pot manner. Overall, we demonstrate a powerful and efficient method for the sequential oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids by employing a readily functionalizable heterogeneous MOF. In addition, our MOF in-and-out method can be utilized in an environmentally friendly way for the oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids of industrial and economic value with broad functional group tolerance, including 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid, with good yield and reusability. Furthermore, MOF-TEMPO, as an antioxidative stabilizer, prevents the undesired oxidation of aldehydes, and the perfect "recoverability" of such a reactive MOF requires a re-evaluation of the advantages of MOFs from heterogeneity in catalytic and related applications.

Abstract
![]()
The mechanism of the acid-dependent
interring dehydrogenation in
the conversion of the single-bonded 3-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzothiazine
dimer 2 to the Δ2,2′-bi(2H-1,4-benzothiazine) scaffold of red hair pigments
is disclosed herein. Integrated chemical oxidation and oxygen consumption
experiments, coupled with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analyses
and DFT calculations, allowed the identification of a key diprotonated
free-radical intermediate, which was implicated in a remarkable oxygen-dependent
chain process via peroxyl radical formation and evolution to give
the Δ2,2′-bi(2H-1,4-benzothiazine) dimer 3 by interring dehydrogenation.
The critical requirement for strongly acidic conditions was rationalized
for the first time by the differential evolution channels of isomeric
peroxyl radical intermediates at the 2- versus 3-positions. These
results offer for the first time a rationale to expand the synthetic
scope of the double interring dehydrogenation pathway for the preparation
of novel symmetric double-bond bridged captodative heterocycles.

Abstract
Bio-oils employed for various industrial purposes, such as biodiesel production, undergo extensive oxidation and degradation during transformation processes. Therefore, it is extremely important to predict their stability at high temperature. We report herein a new procedure based on the optically detected profile of headspace O2 concentration during isotherms at 130 °C for evaluating the oxidation kinetic parameters of several bio-oil feedstocks. The slope of O2 consumption and the induction period duration were related to the oil characteristics (molecular structure, acidity, and presence of intrinsic antioxidants or metals). The increase of the induction time caused by a standardized propyl gallate addition yielded a semiquantitative value of radical generation rate. Investigated oils included used cooking oils; mono-, di-, and triglycerides from natural sources; free fatty acids; transesterified oils; and their blends. With respect to other methods, this characterization presents the advantage of disentangling and evaluating the role of both fatty acids composition and naturally occurring antioxidants, and allows the development of rational strategies for antioxidant protection of oils and of their blends.

Abstract
σ-Bond nucleophiles and molecular oxygen transform aryl diazonium salts into aryl radicals. Experimental and computational studies show that Hantzsch esters transfer hydride to aryl diazonium species, and that oxygen initiates radical fragmentation of the diazene intermediate to produce aryl radicals. The operational simplicity of this addition-fragmentation process for the generation of aryl radicals, by a polar-radical crossover mechanism, has been illustrated in a variety of bond-forming reactions.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation underlies the mechanism of oxidative cell death now known as ferroptosis. This modality, distinct from other forms of cell death, has been intensely researched in recent years owing to its relevance in both degenerative disease and cancer. The demonstration that it can be modulated by small molecules in multiple pathophysiological contexts offers exciting opportunities for novel pharmacological interventions. Herein, we introduce the salient features of lipid peroxidation, how it can be modulated by small molecules and what principal aspects require urgent investigation by researchers in the field. The central role of non-enzymatic reactions in the execution of ferroptosis will be emphasized, as these processes have hitherto not been generally considered 'druggable'. Moreover, we provide a critical perspective on the biochemical mechanisms that contribute to cell vulnerability to ferroptosis and discuss how they can be exploited in the design of novel therapeutics.

Abstract
The autoxidation kinetics of stripped sunflower oil (SSO), squalene (SQ), and p-cymene ( p-C) initiated by 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) at 303 K were investigated under controlled conditions by differential oximetry in order to build reference model systems that are representative of the natural variability of oxidizable materials, for quantitative antioxidant testing. Rate constants for oxidative chain propagation ( kp) and chain termination (2 kt) and the oxidizability ( kp/√2 kt) were measured using 2,6-di- tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol, 2,2,5,7,8-pentamethyl-6-chromanol, BHT, and 4-methoxyphenol as reference antioxidants. Measured values of kp (M-1 s-1)/2 kt (M-1 s-1)/oxidizability (M-1/2 s-1/2) at 303 K in chlorobenzene were 66.9/3.45 × 106/3.6 × 10-2, 68.0/7.40 × 106/2.5 × 10-2, and 0.83/2.87 × 106/4.9 × 10-4, respectively, for SSO, SQ, and p-C. Quercetin, magnolol, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, and 2,4,6-trimethylphenol were investigated to validate calibrations. The distinctive usefulness of the three substrates in testing antioxidants is discussed.

Abstract
Sulfurized olefins (polysulfides) containing four (or more) sulfur atoms react efficiently with peroxyl radicals by homolytic substitution, accounting for their primary antioxidant activity.
Olefin sulfurization, wherein alkenes and sulfur are heated together at high temperatures, produces branched polysulfides. Due to their anti-wear properties, they are indispensible additives to lubricants, but are also added to other petroleum-derived products as oxidation inhibitors. Polysulfides also figure prominently in the chemistry and biology of garlic and other plants of the Allium species. We previously reported that trisulfides, upon oxidation to their corresponding 1-oxides, are surprisingly effective radical-trapping antioxidants (RTAs) at ambient temperatures. Herein, we show that the homolytic substitution mechanism responsible also operates for tetrasulfides, but not trisulfides, disulfides or sulfides. Moreover, we show that this reactivity persists at elevated temperature (160 °C), enabling tetrasulfides to not only eclipse their 1-oxides as RTAs, but also hindered phenols and alkylated diphenylamines – the most common industrial antioxidant additives. The reactivity is unique to higher polysulfides (n ≥ 4), since homolytic substitution upon them at S2 yields stabilized perthiyl radicals. The persistence of perthiyl radicals also underlies the greater reactivity of polysulfides at elevated temperatures relative to their 1-oxides, since homolytic S–S bond cleavage is reversible in the former, but not in the latter. These results suggest that olefin sulfurization processes optimized for tetrasulfide production will afford materials that impart significantly better oxidation stability to hydrocarbon-based products to which polysulfides are added. Moreover, it suggests that RTA activity may contribute to the biological activity of plant-derived polysulfides.

Abstract
Autoxidation, the free radical chain reaction that nominally inserts O2 into hydrocarbons to give peroxides, is primarily responsible for the degradation of all organic materials. Peroxyl radicals propagate autoxidation mainly by abstraction of labile H-atoms from the hydrocarbons, whereas radical-trapping antioxidants (RTAs) inhibit autoxidation by donating an H-atom to the peroxyl radical to give a nonpropagating radical. As such, a detailed understanding of the kinetics and thermodynamics of H-atom transfer (HAT) reactions to peroxyl radicals, and the effects of sterics, electronics, and medium thereupon, is key to understanding the mechanisms and products of autoxidation and the ability of RTAs to inhibit it. Due to their relatively weak O-H and N-H bonds, phenols and aromatic amines have long been utilized as RTAs, but only phenols have been extensively optimized to maximize their reactivity. Amines offer greater structural variability owing to their trivalent central nitrogen atom. Simply linking the two aromatic rings of a diarylamine to afford a phenoxazine offers profound differences in HAT reactivity: 1000-times greater than diphenylamine and 10-fold more reactive than α-tocopherol, Nature's optimized phenolic RTA. Thus, phenoxazines are an exciting scaffold for RTA development. Indeed, we have recently shown that ring substitution of phenoxazine or 2,4-diazaphenoxazine can yield compounds that undergo barrierless HAT reactions with peroxyl radicals. Amines also have the distinct advantage that they can react with peroxyl radicals to yield nitroxides, which can inhibit autoxidation in a catalytic manner utilizing the substrate itself as the stoichiometric reductant. Herein we provide an account of our recent efforts to understand how they manage this feat, which have revealed at least four mechanisms depending on the specific reaction conditions (i.e., saturated hydrocarbons at elevated temperatures, unsaturated hydrocarbons, acidic media, aqueous media/lipid dispersions). We also reiterate how their impressive RTA activity translates from solution to mammalian cell culture, wherein we have demonstrated that diarylamines and their derived nitroxides are potent inhibitors of ferroptosis, a recently characterized form of cell death associated with lipid peroxidation (autoxidation). In addition to phenols and amines, organosulfur compounds have long been used as antioxidants. The prevailing view has been that they undergo ionic reactions with product peroxides, preventing the initiation of further chain reactions. In recent years, we have found that many organosulfur compounds exhibit very good RTA activity. In particular, sulfenic acids (RSOH) and hydropersulfides (RSSH) are found to be among the best HAT agents known, particularly to peroxyl radicals where secondary orbital interactions are found to play a significant role. Consequently, oxidation of the sulfenic acid to a sulfinic acid greatly diminishes its HAT reactivity to peroxyls. Polysulfides and their oxides also undergo direct reactions with peroxyl radicals, thereby inhibiting autoxidation, but do so by homolytic substitution reactions. These insights suggest that the RTA activity of organosulfur compounds may be as important to the inhibition of hydrocarbon autoxidation, if not more so, than their ionic reactions.
