The antioxidant, antiradical, and membranotropic properties of newly synthesized compounds of the group of N-[3-hydroxy-3-(p-substituted phenyl)-1-propyl] amino acids were studied on model systems in vitro.According to the results, amino-acid derivatives of aminopropanols did not exhibit any significant antioxidant or antiradical activity as evidenced by Fe(II)-stimulated ascorbate-dependent peroxidation, by spectrophotometric monitoring of a decrease in the concentration of stable 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical, or by photochemiluminescence techniques. However, these compounds revealed a membrane-stabilizing effect preventing hemolytic destruction of cells under conditions of H2O2-stimulated oxidative stress of erythrocytes. In this respect, derivatives of glycine, leucine, and methionine were most interesting.
