- Phenolic 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]selenophene anti-oxidants carrying the OH-group ortho (9), meta (10, 11) and para (8) to the Se were prepared by seleno-Claisen rearrangement/intramolecular hydroselenation. Meta-isomer (11) was studied by X-ray crystallography. The radical-trapping activity and regenerability of compounds 8-11 were evaluated using a two-phase system where linoleic acid was undergoing peroxidation in the lipid phase while regeneration of the antioxidant by co-antioxidants (N-acetylcysteine, glutathione, dithiothreitol, ascorbic acid, tris(carboxyethyl)phosphine hydrochloride) was ongoing in the aqueous layer. Compound 9 quenched peroxyl radicalsmore efficiently than α-tocopherol. It also provided the most long-lasting antioxidant protection. With thiol co-antioxidants it could inhibit peroxidation for more than five-fold longer than the natural product. Regeneration was more efficient when the aqueous phase pH was slightly acidic. Since calculated O-H bond dissociation energies for 8-11 were substantially larger than for α-tocopherol, an antioxidant mechanism involving O-atom transfer from peroxyl to selenium was proposed. The resulting phenolic selenoxide/alkoxyl radical would then exchange a hydrogen atom in a solvent cage before antioxidant regeneration at the aqueous lipid interphase.

- Novel azo-bis-ebselen compounds 7 were prepared by reduction of 7-nitro-2-aryl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)ones 3 and 6 with sodium benzenetellurolate; NaTeC6H5, and by reaction of 2-bromo-3-nitrobenzamides with Na2Se2. The X-ray structure of 7b showed that the molecule, due to strong intramolecular secondary Se center dot center dot center dot N interactions, is completely planar. Azo-compounds 7 upon further reaction with NaTeC6H5 were reductively cleaved to provide 2 equiv of the corresponding aromatic amine. The weak Se-N bond was not stable enough to survive the reaction conditions, and diselenides 8 were isolated after workup. Whereas azo-bis-ebselens 7 were poor mimics of the glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-enzymes, nitroebselens 3, 6, and 11b and diselenides 8 were 3-6-fold more active than ebselen. Based on Se-77 NMR. spectroscopy, a catalytic cycle for diselenide 8b, involving aminoebselen 14, was proposed. As assessed by chemiluminescence measurements, the good GPx-mimics could reduce production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in stimulated human mononuclear cells more efficiently than Trolox. No toxic effects of the, compounds were seen in MC3T3-cells at 25 mu M.

- In search for better mimics of the glutathioneperoxidase enzymes, pyridoxine-like diselenides 6 and 11,carrying a 6-bromo substituent, were prepared. Reaction of2,6-dibromo-3-pyridinol 5 with sodium diselenide provided 6via aromatic nucleophilic substitution of the 2-bromosubstituent. LiAlH4 caused reduction of all four ester groupsand returned 11 after acidic workup. The X-ray structure of 6showed that the dipyridyl diselenide moiety was kept in analmost planar, transoid conformation. According to NBOanalysis,this was due to weak intramolecular Se···O (1.1 kcal/mol) and Se···N-interactions (2.5 kcal/mol). That the 6-bromo substituent increased the positive charge on seleniumwas confirmed by NPA-analysis and seen in calculated andobserved 77Se NMR-shifts. Diselenide 6 showed a more than 3-fold higher reactivity than the corresponding des-bromocompound 3a and ebselen when evaluated in the coupled reductase assay. Experiments followed for longer time (2 h) confirmedthat diselenide 6 is a better GPx-catalyst than 11. On the basis of 77Se-NMR experiments, a catalytic mechanism for diselenide 6was proposed involving selenol, selenosulfide and seleninic acid intermediates. At low concentration (10 μM) where it showedonly minimal toxicity, it could scavenge ROS produced by MNC- and PMNC-cells more efficiently than Trolox.
