Article Synopsis
- Quinoid rings with electron-rich olefins show changes in their redox potential, influenced by lateral chain flexibility and its interaction with proteins and substrates, which is crucial for biological activity.
- New techniques, including electrochemical-electron spin resonance (EC-ESR) and theoretical calculations, have demonstrated that weak pi-pi interactions play a key role in determining the conformation, diffusion, and electrochemical properties of compounds like perezone.
- Nuclear magnetic resonance has provided direct evidence of different perezone conformers in solution and explained their transformation into pipitzols upon heating, highlighting the importance of conformer interaction in influencing the redox potential during biological processes.
