The superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) activities of new series of macrocyclic complexes with copper(II) have been measured. Chemical modifications in macrocyclic ring size, donor atom, donor atom number, substituents on the macrocyclic skeletons, and length of bridges linking two macrocycles are shown to have profound effects on the superoxide dismutase activities of the metal complexes. The quantitative measurement by the standard xanthine-xanthine oxidase assay, which depends on the conversion of nitroblue tetrazolium to formazan, has been corroborated by a direct assay method using an oxygen electrode.
已测定了一系列新型含铜(II)大环配合物的超氧化物歧化酶(EC 1.15.1.1)活性。结果表明,大环环大小、供体原子、供体原子数、大环骨架上的取代基以及连接两个大环的桥的长度等化学修饰对金属配合物的超氧化物歧化酶活性有深远影响。通过标准的黄嘌呤-黄嘌呤氧化酶测定法进行的定量测量(该方法依赖于硝基蓝四唑转化为甲臜)已通过使用氧电极的直接测定法得到证实。
