A novel series of potentially biologically active 4-hydroxy-N'-(benzylidene)-2H-benzo[e][1,2]thiazine-3-carbohydrazide 1,1-dioxides were synthesized starting from ultrasonic mediated N-alkylation of sodium saccharin with methyl chloroacetate. Ring expansion of methyl(1,1-dioxido-3-oxo-1,2-benzisothiazol-2(3H)-yl)acetate followed by its hydrazinolysis afforded 4-hydroxy-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carbohydrazide 1,1-dioxide which was reacted in a straight forward

3-Tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (3-BHA) was metabolized in the presence of horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide to 2-tert-butyl-p-benzoquinone (TBQ), 2,3-epoxy-5-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (TBQ-epoxide), and two known dimers. The formation of TBQ from 3-BHA required both horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide. When 2.5 mM 3-BHA was

Peroxynitrite is a strong oxidant that reacts with a variety of biomolecules in vivo and in vitro. When rat thymocytes in phosphate buffer are exposed to 25 microM peroxynitrite for 10 min, DNA single strand breaks (SSB) can be detected.
