Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely used in China for disease treatment and has become a valuable resource for drug development due to its high efficacy and low risk of side-effects. However, growing toxicity reports has garnered significant global attention. A major challenge in addressing TCM-induced toxicity is lack of specific and sensitive biomarkers for diagnosing and predicting its toxicity.

The transformation and risk assessment of flavonoids triggered by free radicals deserve extensive attention. In this work, the degradation mechanisms, kinetics, and ecotoxicity of kaempferol and quercetin mediated by ∙OH, ∙OCH, ∙OOH, and O in gaseous and aqueous environments were investigated using cell experiments and quantum chemical calculations. Three radical scavenging mechanisms, including hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), radical adduct formation (RAF) and single electron transfer (SET) were discussed.

The DNA adducts formed by the alkenylbenzene natural products, safrole (SF) and methyleugenol (MEG) are primarily attributed to their reported carcinogenic properties. Herein, we report a concise strategy to access -Ac-SF/MEG-dA phosphoramidites, which were selectively incorporated into DNA oligonucleotides by solid-phase DNA synthesis. The replication studies using human polymerases hpolκ and hpolη showed that both polymerases replicate these adducts error-free, which indicates that these polymerases do not contribute to the adduct-induced mutagenicity.

Organic hydrides can store hydrogen via chemical bonding under ambient conditions, enabling the safe storage and transportation of hydrogen gas using the same infrastructure for gasoline. However, in previous research, most organic hydrides have been produced from petroleum, and therefore replacing them with earth-abundant or renewable compounds is essential to ensure sustainability. This study demonstrates dihydrolevoglucosenone (CyreneTM), which is a biodegradable liquid ketone that is produced directly from biomass without pretreatments on an industrial scale, as a new renewable organic hydride.
