In this article, we have performed B3LYP/6-31＋G（d） calculations of geometrical and reaction enthalpies of antioxidant mechanisms for ADPHT 1-4 （3-alkyl-4-phenylacetylamino-lH-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones） and its derivat...In this article, we have performed B3LYP/6-31＋G（d） calculations of geometrical and reaction enthalpies of antioxidant mechanisms for ADPHT 1-4 （3-alkyl-4-phenylacetylamino-lH-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones） and its derivatives： HAT （hydrogen atom transfer）, SET-PT （single electron transfer-proton transfer） and SPLET （sequential proton-loss electron transfer） were investigated in gas and solution-phases. Solvent contribution to enthalpies was computed employing integral equation formalism IEF-PCM （integral equation formalism method） method. It turned out that the lowest BDEs （bond dissociation energies） is obtained for C-H bonds due to captodative effect in various media. Results indicate that HAT mechanism represents the most anticipated process in gas-phase from thermodynamic point of view. But, the SPLET represents the thermodynamically preferred reaction pathway in solvents （2-propanol, acetonitrile, DMF （N,N-dimethylformamide） and water）. The authors showed that bond dissociation energies, IP （ionization potential） and PA （proton affinity） are sufficient to evaluate the thermodynamically preferred mechanism.展开更多

It turned out that the AA （antioxidant activity） in increasing order was P3HC 〈 P4HC 〈 CAPE 〈 MBC. Effects of solvents on the structure and the antioxidant activity of P3HC, P4HC, BC, MBC and CAPE, were studied at 133LYP/6-31G （d, p） then B3LYP/6-3 I＋G （d, p） level of theory using the conductor polarized continuum model methods. Thermodynamically, the authors showed that solvent effects on bond dissociation enthalpy are very weak （within 25 kJ/mol）, but sufficient to influence hydrogen bonds, O-H bond lengths and showed the preferential sites of hydrogen atom cleavage. In addition, solvent notably influences and changes the nature of the scavenging process of ROS （reactive oxygen species）, favouring by this way the HHAT （homolytic hydrogen atom transfer） in non polar solvents, the SPLET （sequential proton loss electron transfer） in polar solvents. Moreover, in chloroform and for the five molecules studied the SET-PT （sequential electron transfer proton transfer） mechanism is preferred compared to the HHAT, because in this solvent the IP is lower than the BDE. TD-DFT calculations revealed that solvent induce a bathochromic effect （red-shift of the wavelengths） coupled to hyperchromic or hypochromic effects.展开更多
