1-hydroxyethyl radical

Description

The 1-hydroxyethyl radical, also known as the α-hydroxyethyl radical, is a highly reactive species that plays a significant role in various chemical processes. It is often formed during the oxidation of ethanol or other organic molecules containing hydroxyl groups. The radical is characterized by its unpaired electron located on the carbon atom adjacent to the hydroxyl group. Research studies have explored its generation through different pathways, including photolysis, radiolysis, and reactions with various radicals. Notably, the 1-hydroxyethyl radical is involved in the formation of DNA damage products, specifically 8-oxoguanine, a marker of oxidative stress. Moreover, it contributes to the degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, contributing to lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage. The study of this radical is crucial in understanding the mechanisms of oxidative stress and its implications in various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Its reactivity and propensity to induce damage make it an important subject of research in fields such as biochemistry, toxicology, and environmental science.'
