The Colorimetric Detection of the Hydroxyl Radical.

ABSTRACT: An aromatic substrate for hydroxylation by hydroxyl radicals (^•OH) was investigated. The probe, N,N'-(5-nitro-1,3-phenylene)-bis-glutaramide, and its hydroxylated product do not bind either iron(III) or iron(II), and so they do not interfere with the Fenton reaction. A spectrophotometric assay based on the hydroxylation of the substrate was developed. The synthesis and purification methods of this probe from previously published methodologies were improved upon, as well as the analytical procedure for monitoring the Fenton reaction through its use, enabling univocal and sensitive ^•OH detection. The assay was utilised to demonstrate that the iron(III) complexes of long-chain fatty acids lack Fenton activity under biological conditions.

Project description:Understanding the mechanism of hydrazine oxidation reaction by OH radical along with the rate constants of all possible pathways leads to explain the fate of hydrazine in the atmosphere. In this article, the comprehensive mechanisms and kinetics of the hydrazine plus hydroxyl radical reaction have been investigated theoretically at different temperatures and pressures. To achieve the main goals, a series of high levels of quantum chemical calculations have been widely implemented in reliable channels of the H-abstraction, SN2, and addition/elimination reactions. The energy profile of all pathways accompanied by the molecular properties of the involved stationary points has been characterized at the MP2, M06-2X, and CCSD(T)/CBS levels. To estimate accurate barrier energies of the H-abstraction channels, large numbers of the CCSD (T) calculations in conjunction with various augmented basis sets have been implemented. The direct dynamic calculations have been carried out using the validated M06-2X/maug-cc-pVTZ level, and also by the CCSD(T) (energies) + MP2 (partition functions) level. The pressure-dependent rate constants of the barrierless pathways have been investigated by the strong collision approach. Therefore, the main behaviors of the N2H4 + OH reaction have been explored according to the influences of temperature and pressure on the computed rate coefficients within the well-behaved theoretical frameworks of the TST, VTST, and RRKM theories. It has been found that the H-abstraction mechanism (to form N2H3) is dominant relative to the SN2 reaction and OH-addition to the N center of N2H4 moiety (to form H2NOH + NH2). The computed high pressure limit rate constant of the main reaction pathway, k(298.15) = 7.31 × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, has an excellent agreement with the experimental value (k (298.15) = (6.50 ± 1.3) × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1) recommended by Vaghjiani. Also, the atmospheric lifetime of hydrazine degradation by OH radicals has been demonstrated to be 32.80 to 1161.11 h at the altitudes of 0-50 km. Finally, the disagreement in the calculated rate constants between the previous theoretical study and experimental results has been rectified.
