Answer:
hydroxypyrone
Explanation:
Hydroxy(thio)pyrone and hydroxy(thio)pyridinone iron chelators: physico-chemical properties and anti-oxidant activity.
Hydroxy(thio)pyrone and hydroxy(thio)pyridinone
In the presence and absence of iron, the O,S-donor analogues of maltol and deferiprone (DMHP), respectively, thiomaltol and DMHTP, were investigated in solution for their iron-complexation ability, as well as their electrochemical behaviours, in order to rationalise their anti-oxidant activity, particularly as hydroxyl radical scavengers and inhibitors of lipid peroxidation. When the findings were compared to those of the O,O-donor compounds, it was discovered that all of the compounds are effective iron chelators (pFe=14.1-20.2), with the O,S-donor ligands being somewhat weaker than their oxo-analogues.
