1. Mecanistic Studies of Reactions involving Tellurium Compounds and Synthetic Application of Chalcogenide Compounds / Estudo de mecanismos de reações envolvendo compostos de telúrio e aplicações sintéticas de compostos calcogenados
The first experimental evidence for the formation of an organic tellurium-centered radical (RTe center dot, R = Ph or nBu groups) during the hydrotelluration of alkenes and alkynes is provided. The radicals were detected by electronic paramagnetic ressonance (EPR), using DBNBS (3,5-dibromo-4-nitrosobenzene-sulfonate) as the spin trap. The radical adducts (DB

2. Participação de radicais livres centrados em átomos de carbono na toxicidade de hidrazina / Carbon-centered free radicals participation in hydrazine toxicity
A produção de radicais de carbono "in vivo" durante a biotransformação da hidrazina foi demonstrada por ressonância para magnética eletrônica, utilizando o método do captador de spin. Eritrócitos de rato também oxidaram a hidrazina, formando radicais de carbono e nitrogênio, além de espécies reativas de oxigênio. Todas estas espécies, possivel

3. Substrate free radicals are intermediates in ligninase catalysis.
The H2O2-requiring ligninase of the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium oxidatively cleaves both lignin and lignin model compounds between C alpha and C beta (C-1 and C-2) of their aliphatic side chains. Previous work has demonstrated a reaction mechanism by which ligninase oxidizes aromatic substrates to their cation radicals, which then undergo side

4. Demonstration of free radical generation in "stunned" myocardium of intact dogs with the use of the spin trap alpha-phenyl N-tert-butyl nitrone.
Recent studies suggest that oxygen free radicals may mediate postischemic myocardial dysfunction ("stunning"), but all the evidence for this hypothesis is indirect. Thus, we used electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and the spin trap, alpha-phenyl N-tert-butyl nitrone (PBN), to directly investigate whether free radicals are produced after a 15-

5. Recombinant superoxide dismutase reduces oxygen free radical concentrations in reperfused myocardium.
It has been proposed that oxygen free radicals mediate damage that occurs during postischemic reperfusion. Recombinant human superoxide dismutase (r-h-SOD) has been shown to be effective at reducing reperfusion injury, but it is not known if this infused enzyme actually reduces oxygen free radical concentrations in the myocardial tissue. Electron paramagneti

6. Nuclear coupling of 33S and the nature of free radicals in irradiated crystals of N-acetyl-L-cysteine.
Hyperfine structure due to 33S in its natural abundance of 0.76% has been measured in the electron spin resonance of free radicals produced by x-irradiation of single crystals of N-acetyl-L-cysteine at 77 K. These measurements proved that the radicals produced at 77 K with principal g values of 1.990, 2.006, and 2.214 are monosulfide radicals with the 3p unp

7. Reactive free radical generation in vivo in heart and liver of ethanol-fed rats: correlation with radical formation in vitro.
Rats fed a high-fat ethanol-containing diet for 2 weeks were found to generate free radicals in liver and heart in vivo. The radicals are believed to be carbon-centered radicals, were detected by administering spin-trapping agents to the rats, and were characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The radicals in the liver were demonstrated

8. Direct measurement of free radical generation following reperfusion of ischemic myocardium.
Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to directly measure free radical generation in perfused rabbit hearts. Hearts were freeze-clamped at 77 degrees K during control perfusion, after 10 min of normothermic global ischemia (no coronary flow), or following post-ischemic reperfusion with oxygenated perfusate. The spectra of these hearts exhibit

9. Structure-dependent reactivity of oxyfunctionalized acetophenones in the photooxidation of DNA: base oxidation and strand breaks through photolytic radical formation (spin trapping, EPR spectroscopy, transient kinetics) versus photosensitization (electron transfer, hydrogen-atom abstraction)
The photooxidative damage of DNA, specifically guanine oxidation and strand-break formation, by sidechain-oxyfunctionalized acetophenones (hydroxy, methoxy, tert-butoxy and acetoxy derivatives), has been examined. The involvement of triplet-excited ketones and their reactivity towards DNA has been determined by time-resolved laser-flash spectroscopy. The gen

10. Demonstration of free radical generation in the "stunned" myocardium in the conscious dog and identification of major differences between conscious and open-chest dogs.
Conscious dogs undergoing a 15-min coronary occlusion were given alpha-phenyl N-tert-butyl nitrone (PBN) and the local coronary venous plasma was analyzed by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. A prolonged myocardial release of PBN radical adducts was observed, which exhibited a burst in the initial minutes of reflow (peaking at 3 min) and then aba

11. The free radical in pyruvate formate-lyase is located on glycine-734.
Pyruvate formate-lyase (acetyl-CoA:formate C-acetyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.54) from anaerobic Escherichia coli cells converts pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and formate by a unique homolytic mechanism that involves a free radical harbored in the protein structure. By EPR spectroscopy of selectively 13C-labeled enzyme, the radical (g = 2.0037) has been assigned to carb
