Abstract
A new dendrimer with a 1,2-diphenylacetylene core and PAMAM-type dendrons was obtained in 55 % yield by a palladium-catalyzed reaction assisted by silver oxide [(PPh3)2PdCl2/Ag2O] from hypercore derivative of 17α-ethynylestradiol and dendrons with iodobenzene as focal point. The structure of this new dendrimer was unambiguously established by 1H, 13C NMR, HETCOR, 1H–13C HMBC, and HRMS. Due to the structure and aqueous solubility of the dendrimer, preliminary in vitro antioxidant potential was evaluated by ferric reducing antioxidant power assay, showing values 84 % higher than reduced glutathione. From DPPH assay, it was concluded that the dendrimer exhibited a scavenging power slightly higher than ascorbic acid. Because of its properties, the synthesized dendrimer could be a good candidate for future assays in biological models for specific diseases where oxidative stress plays an important role.
