Probing lipid peroxidation by using linoleic acid and benzophenone.
A thorough mechanistic study has been performed on the reaction between benzophenone (BZP) and a series of 1,4-dienes, including 1,4-cyclohexadiene (CHD), 1,4-dihydro-2-methylbenzoic acid (MBA), 1,4-dihydro-1,2-dimethylbenzoic acid (DMBA) and linoleic acid (LA). A combination of steady-state photolysis, laser flash photolysis (LFP), and photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (photo-CIDNP) have been used. Irradiation of BZP and CHD led to a cross-coupled sensitizer-diene product, together with 6, 7, and 8. With MBA and DMBA as hydrogen donors, photoproducts arising from cross-coupling of sensitizer and diene radicals were found; compound 7 was also obtained, but 6 and o-toluic acid were only isolated in the irradiation of BZP with MBA. Triplet lifetimes were determined in the absence and in the presence of several diene concentrations. All three model compounds showed similar reactivity (k(q) ≈10(8) M(-1) s(-1)) towards triplet excited BZP. Partly reversible hydrogen abstraction of the allylic hydrogen atoms of CHD, MBA, and DMBA was also detected by photo-CIDNP on different timescales. Polarizations of the diamagnetic products were in full agreement with the results derived from LFP. Finally, LA also underwent partly reversible hydrogen abstraction during photoreaction with BZP. Subsequent hydrogen transfer between primary radicals led to conjugated derivatives of LA. The unpaired electron spin population in linoleyl radical (LA(.)) was predominantly found on H(1-5) protons. To date, LA-related radicals were only reported upon hydrogen transfer from highly substituted model compounds by steady-state EPR spectroscopy. Herein, we have experimentally established the formation of LA(.) and shown that it converts into two dominating conjugated isomers on the millisecond timescale. Such processes are at the basis of alterations of membrane structures caused by oxidative stress.

Benzophenone-sensitized lipid peroxidation in linoleate micelles.
Benzophenone-photosensitized peroxidation in linoleic acid micelles (Type I reaction) has been investigated and quantum yields of both sensitizer photolysis and lipid peroxidation have been obtained. Benzophenone as well as its derivative, benzophenone-4'-heptyl-4-pentanoic acid (BHPA) have been utilized as sensitizers in this study. A quantum yield of 1.2 for hydroperoxide formation, compared with a benzophenone disappearance quantum yield of 0.41 (in the same linoleate micellar solution) was obtained; yields of 1.3 and 0.6 were found for comparable systems in which BHPA was the sensitizer. Although such data are consistent with the peroxidation mechanism of chain reaction, it is necessary to know the yields of initiating species to arrive at chain reaction lengths in these systems. Such yields have been determined by flash photolysis. The dependencies of sensitizer photolysis and hydroperoxide yields on linoleate concentration have also been determined in order to elucidate the effects of micelle formation or molecular organization on the peroxidative process. Additionally, for comparison in a saturated surfactant (lipid) system hydrogen abstraction was investigated by photolysis techniques in sodium dodecyl sulfate alone using these two sensitizers.
