Aldehydes react with ketenes generated from photolysis of Fischer chromium carbene complexes to generate either beta-lactones or enol ethers resulting from decarboxylation of beta-lactones. The reaction is catalyzed by tertiary amines and can occur with diastereoselectivity greater than 20:1 with DMAP as the catalyst.
It was found by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy that the Schiff base, 2-deoxy-2-(2-hydroxybenzaldimino)-D-glucopyranose exhibits enol-imine-keto-amine and anomeric equilibria in methanolic, and in dimethyl sulfoxide solutions. The reaction of the Schiff base with nickel acetate gave the bidentate, mononuclear Ni(II) complex that was characterized by spectroscopic methods and by cyclic voltammetry. The coordination of the Schiff base to the metal is through the enol-imine tautomeric form, and the anomeric equilibrium remains in dimethyl sulfoxide solutions. This complex was also obtained by reaction of D-glucosamine with Ni(II) salicylaldehydate. The same reaction was employed for the synthesis of bis-N-[2-deoxy-D-galactopyranosyl-2-(2-hydroxybenzaldiminate)]Ni(II). The small paramagnetic shifts of the 1H NMR resonances of the complexes suggest that paramagnetic species are present in low proportions.
A role for myeloperoxidase (MPO) in atherosclerosis has received considerable attention recently. To identify potential chlorinated lipid products in human low density lipoprotein (LDL), studies were designed to demonstrate that MPO-derived reactive chlorinating species (RCS) target the plasmalogen pool of LDL isolated from peripheral human blood in vitro. The vinyl ether bond of LDL plasmalogens was targeted by MPO-derived RCS, resulting in the release of the 16- and 18-carbon-containing alpha-chloro fatty aldehydes, 2-chlorohexadecanal and 2-chlorooctadecanal, respectively, from the plasmalogen glycerol backbone. Targeting of the LDL plasmalogen vinyl ether bond was dependent on the presence of MPO-derived RCS. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometric analysis of MPO-treated LDL demonstrated that a novel population of unsaturated lysophosphatidylcholine molecular species was produced by a phospholipase A2-independent mechanism. Unsaturated lysophosphatidylcholine molecular species elicited cyclic AMP response element binding protein phosphorylation in RAW 264.7 cells. Additionally, MPO-mediated targeting of both monocyte and LDL plasmalogen pools was demonstrated in phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated human monocytes, resulting in the production of both 2-chlorohexadecanal and 2-chlorooctadecanal. In contrast, alpha-chloro fatty aldehydes were not produced in phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated mouse monocytes. Collectively, the present studies demonstrate a novel MPO-specific mechanism that mediates the production of a novel group of unsaturated lysophosphatidylcholine molecular species and chlorinated aldehydes from both LDL and monocyte plasmalogen pools that may have important effects during inflammatory reactions mediated by monocytes, most notably atherosclerosis.
