Electrochemical oxidation of 1,4-dihydropyridines I-XII and electrochemical reduction of the nitro group of 4-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridines III, VI, IX and XII was studied using cyclic voltametry. When comparing the electrochemical and the biological oxidation of 3,5-dimethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine (IX, Nifedipine) and related 1,4-dihydropyridines it was found that in spite of certain common trends the oxidation of these compounds (I-XII) in the organism cannot be predicted unambiguously. Of the substances tested compounds IX and XI (3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-4-phenyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine) were the least oxidizable by the respiratory chain, and at the same time they did not inhibit this enzyme system. In addition to this, compound IX was the least oxidizable by the microsomal system.

AbstractThe electrochemical oxidation and reduction properties of different dihydropyridines and pyridines have been investigated in non aqueous solvent as benzonitrile and aceto-nitrile with tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate as supporting electrolyte at platinium electrodes using DC-voltametry, cycl. voltametry and coulometry. Possible redox-mechanisms are discussed.

In rats with leukemia activity of liver mitochondrial enzymes are decreased at 6 months. Later, we noted compensatory activation of complexes II and III of the respiratory chain and transition to decompensation stage by final deadline. The activity of complex IV of the respiratory chain remains high. These changes result from increased lipid peroxidation and decreased activity of antioxidant protection enzymes.

Luminol electrochemiluminescence is dramatically increased by about five hundred times by coupling electrochemical reduction and electrochemical oxidation using simple linear sweep voltammetry, enabling sensitive detection.

Electrochemical reduction of carbazole, 3-methyl- and 3,9-dimethylcarbazole in acetonitrile leads to the formation of a layer of conductive, insoluble products on the electrode surface of a partially radical character. This phenomenon was studied by coulometry in the resonator cavity of an EPR spectrometer with simultaneous measuring of the spin concentration. With carbazole and 3-methylcarbazole, the radical particles are formed with a yield of about 2% with respect to the current passed, whereas with 3,9-dimethylcarbazole this yield is by an order or magnitude lower. The radical product adsorbed on the electrode is probably a sparingly soluble perchlorate of the cation radical of 3,3'- or 6,6'-bicarbazole. 3,6,9-Trimethylcarbazole gives on oxidation a relatively stable primary cation radical. Electrochemical oxidation of 9-methyl- and 3,6-dimethylcarbazole does not lead to radical products.

Half-wave potentials E1/2 of electrochemical oxidation of the title 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives with the substituents N(CH3)2, OCH3, CH3, H, F, Cl, COOCH3, and CN have been measured on platinum rotating disc electrode in aqueous and anhydrous dimethylformamide, and apparent rate constants k2 of their oxidation with potassium ferricyanide have been measured in water at 298 K. The two quantities (E1/2 and k2) have been correlated both mutually and with empirical σp constants of the substituents. The found correlation relations have been discussed with respect to mechanism of the two transformations investigated.
