Base-Promoted Reaction of 5-Hydroxyuracil Derivatives with Peroxyl Radicals

[摘要]：Addition of millimolar amounts of a weak base (pyridines) dramatically accelerates the reaction with peroxyl radicals of two biologically relevant uracil derivatives, 5-hydroxyuracil (HU) and 5-hydroxy-6-methyluracil (HMU). This is due to the formation of small amounts of the deprotonated form (pK(a) = 8.1-8.5 in water), which reacts with peroxyl radicals much faster than the parent undissociated form, via formal H-atom transfer from the OH in the 5 position.
