The structural and electronic properties of alkannin and its derivatives and their radicals were investigated at density functional level. It turned out that the presence of the dihydroxy functionality increases the radical stability through hydrogen bond formation. The hydrogen atom transfer for alkannin derivatives is difficult to occur compared with zero compound phenol. However, alkannin derivatives appear to be good candidates for the one-electron-transfer, particularly for alkannin derivatives with –OCOCH=CH(CH3)2 and –OCOCH2CH(CH3)2 groups. It suggests that 1–7 are expected to be the promising candidates for radical scavenging activity compounds because The ionization potential (IP) values of 1–7 are lower than that of the zero compound phenol.

Antioxidant and UV absorption activities of three aaptamine derivatives including piperidine[3,2-b]demethyl(oxy)aaptamine (C1), 9-amino-2-ethoxy-8-methoxy-3H-benzo[de][1,6]naphthyridine-3-one (C2), and 2-(sec-butyl)-7,8-dimethoxybenzo[de]imidazo[4,5,1-ij][1,6]-naphthyridin-10(9H)-one (C3) were theoretically studied by density functional theory (DFT). Optimized geometries of C1C3 and theirs intrinsic thermochemical properties such as bond dissociation energy, proton affinity, and ionization potential were calculated at DFT/M05-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory in vacuo and in water. The results show that C1C3 exhibited similar potent antioxidant activities, which are comparable to well-known antioxidants such as Trolox or cembrene. The radical scavenging activity of the antioxidants were then investigated by evaluation the Gibbs free energy (ΔrG0) of the reaction between C1C3 and the HOO●/HO● radicals via four mechanisms, including: hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), single electron transfer (SET), proton loss (PL) and radical adduct formation (RAF). Kinetic calculation reveals that HOO● scavenging in water is occurred via HAT mechanism with C1@C19 while RAF is more dominant with C2 and C3. Antioxidant activity of aaptamine derivatives can be classified as C1 > C3 > C2. In addition, all compounds are active in UV-Vis absorption; the excitations of which are determined as π-π* transition. Overall, the results suggest the potential applications of the aaptamines in pharmaceutics and cosmetics, i.e. as sunscreen and antioxidant ingredient<br>

Radical Scavenging Properties

- A density functional theory (DFT) study on the hydroxyl radical scavenging properties of Kinsenoside originated from Anoectochilus roxburghii is presented. Two mechanisms, single electron transfer (SET) and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) are considered. The thermochemical results demonstrate that the SET mechanism is not plausible to occur. With respect to the HAT, the interaction of OH• radical with Kinsenoside is also studied in detail by establishing potential energy surface (PES). This result strongly confirms that the C8H bond decides the radical scavenging activity of Kinsenoside with activation Gibbs free energy (∆G≠) and rate constants (k) of 1.1 kcal/mol and 5.9×10-8 cm3/molecules, respectively

The luteolin has been extracted from Euphorbia schimperiana then 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 2D NMR spectra were measured. The ground-state geometries have been computed by using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31G* and M06/6-31++G** level of theories. The time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) has been applied to compute the absorption spectra with and without solvent. The absorption spectra have been computed in methanol to check the effect of solvent using the polarized continuum model (PCM). On the basis of bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) and the adiabatic ionization potential (IP), we have explained the antioxidant activity of luteolin and its rotamer/positional isomer. Two mechanisms have been explained for the radical scavenging processes, i.e. hydrogen atom transfer and one-electron transfer.

We have been investigating the scavenging activity of gnetin C theoretically in the molecular level. In this work, we perform density functional based calculations to predict the possible site of gnetin C for free radical scavenging activity. The water solvent effect is considered as polarizable continuum model. All possible scavenging sites have been evaluated by obtaining the bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) for one hydrogen atom abstraction. The results demonstrate that O-H bonds generally have lower BDE relative to C-H bonds of gnetin C. We also find that C-H bonds in 5-membered heterocyclic ring have exceptionally lower BDE. This could be additional possible sites for gnetin C to scavenge more free radicals in addition to hydroxyl groups.

Puerarin is a C-glycoside of daidzein, one of the major bioactive ingredients isolated from the root of Pueraria lobata, which has a wide spectrum of pharmacological effects. Although puerarin is well-known for its effective antioxidant activity, there is seldom a systematic theoretical study on its radical scavenging activity. Herein, the free radical scavenging ability of puerarin was investigated systematically by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The reaction activity was compared with daidzein as well. Three reaction pathways: hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), single electron transfer followed by proton transfer (SET-PT), and sequential proton loss electron transfer (SPLET) were discussed and compared by thermodynamic parameters such as bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE), ionization potential (IP), proton dissociation enthalpy (PDE), proton affinity (PA), and electron transfer enthalpy (ETE). The reaction kinetics of puerarin with special radicals •OH and •OOH were also studied. The results obtained may be of great significance for better understanding the relationship between the antioxidant properties and structural design of puerarin, as well as other antioxidants.

Two new nitrogen-containing sorbicillinoids named sorbicillasins A and B (1 and 2) and a new 3,4,6-trisubstituted α-pyrone derivative, scirpyrone K (3), together with two known biosynthetically related polyketides (4–5), were isolated from the deep-sea-derived fungus Phialocephala sp. FL30r by using the OSMAC (one strain-many compounds) method. The structures of 1–3, including absolute configurations, were deduced based on MS, NMR, and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations of specific ECD (electronic circular dichroism) spectra. Compounds 1 and 2 possessed a novel hexahydropyrimido[2,1-a] isoindole moiety, and compound 3 exhibited weak radical scavenging activity against DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) with an IC50 value of 27.9 μM.
