Fragmentation of the quinoxaline N-oxide bond to the ˙OH radical upon one-electron bioreduction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ˙OH radical is released from 3-trifluoromethyl-quinoxaline 1,4-dioxides upon one-electron reduction by cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase. This process effectively competes with back oxidation of the intermediate radical anion by oxygen and underlies the increased aerobic cytotoxicity of such compounds compared to that seen for the related clinical bioreductive benzotriazine drug, tirapazamine.

A set of density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on 2-carboxamide-1,4- di-N-oxide quinoxaline (2CdNOQ) derivatives. The optimized structure of these compounds in three forms was obtained. Some electronic parameters including dipole moment (μ),ionization potential (I), electron af finity (A), LUMO energy (εLUMO), HOMO energy (εHOMO),electronegativity (χ), hardness (η), ele...

Background and purpose: Quinoxaline derivatives are standing interest of people who work on anti-cancer drugs. There are many reports about using these agents as DNA cleaving, transglutaminase 2 inhibitor, topoisomerase II inhibitor and tumor antibiotic. Other drugs used in treatment of tuberculosis such as isoniazid, pyrazinamide and rifampin have similar structures to quinoxaline and quinoxal...

Abstract: Systematic studies on the substituent effect in para substituted Fe(CO)4–pyridine complexes have been studied on the basis of DFT quantum-chemical calculations. The following substituents were taken into consideration: NO2, CN, CHO, F, H, CH3, and OH. Additionally, the Fe–N and Fe–C bonds were characterized on the basis of Atoms in Molecules topological analysis of electron density. I...

Quinoxalines display diverse and interesting pharmacological activities as antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic and anticancer agents. Particularly, their 1,4-di-N-oxides derivatives have proved to be cytotoxic agents that are active under hypoxic conditions as that of solid tumours. A new series of quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxides substitutes at 7-position with esters group were synthetized and ...
