Pro- and Anti-oxidant Properties of Redox-Active Catechol-Chitosan Films

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2019
Catechols are abundant in nature and are believed to perform diverse biological functions that include photoprotection (e.g., melanins), molecular signaling (e.g., catecholamine neurotransmitters), and mechanical adhesion (e.g., mussel glue).

Kinetic Study of the Oxidation of Catechols in the Presence of N-Methylaniline

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2013
The reactions of electrochemically generated o-quinones from oxidation of catechol and 4-methylcatechol as Michael acceptors with N-methylaniline as nucleophile have been studied using cyclic voltammetry.

Phenolic metabolites of anthocyanins modulate mechanisms of endothelial function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Anthocyanins are reported to have vascular bioactivity, however their mechanisms of action are largely unknown. Evidence suggests that anthocyanins modulate endothelial function, potentially by increasing nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, or enhancing NO ...

Polyphenol-Hydroxylating Tyrosinase Activity under Acidic pH Enables Efficient Synthesis of Plant Catechols and Gallols

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Tyrosinase is generally known as a melanin-forming enzyme, facilitating monooxygenation of phenols, oxidation of catechols into quinones, and finally generating biological melanin.

From catechol‐tocopherol to catechol‐hydroquinone polyphenolic antioxidant hybrids

open access: yesHeteroatom Chemistry, 2018
AbstractMultidefence antioxidants represent a valuable solution for the protection against oxidative stress. From the planned synthesis of a catechol‐tocopherol hybrid, we isolated a catechol‐hydroquinone hybrid through a BBr3‐mediated benzochromene‐fluoren‐1‐ol transposition.
