General description

4-Methoxy-TEMPO (4-methoxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) is an aminoxyl free radical commonly employed for the oxidation reaction of alcohols (primary/secondary). It has been proposed as hindered amine light stabiliser (HALS) model compound. Its reaction with irradiated dilute aqueous suspensions of photocatalytic nanoparticulate titanium dioxide was investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) and electrospray ionization mass-spectrometry (ESI-MS).

Application

4-Methoxy-TEMPO may be employed as catalyst for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzoxazoles, via aerobic oxidation reaction.

To probe the effect of 3',8″-dimerization on antioxidant flavonoids, acacetin and its 3',8″-dimer isoginkgetin were comparatively analyzed using three antioxidant assays, namely, the ·O2- scavenging assay, the Cu2+ reducing assay, and the 2,2'-azino bis(3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging assay. In these

Potenital pathways for the deactivation of hindered amine light stabilisers (HALS) have been investigated by observing reactions of model compounds--based on 4-substituted derivatives of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO)--with hydroxyl radicals. In these reactions, dilute aqueous suspensions of photocatalytic nanoparticulate titanium dioxide were
