Usage

Description

FeTMPyP is a synthetic porphyrin complexed with iron, functioning as a peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst. It is characterized by a high rate constant for peroxynitrite decomposition (2.2 x 10^6 M^-1s^-1) and a turnover number of 360 ± 170 s^-1. The primary product of this reaction is nitrate, with a minor amount of nitrite also formed (~6%), at pH 7.4.

Uses

Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
FeTMPyP is used as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of various conditions involving oxidative stress and inflammation. Its ability to decompose peroxynitrite, a potent oxidizing and nitrating agent, makes it a promising candidate for mitigating the harmful effects of reactive nitrogen species in the body.
Used in Research Applications:
In the field of scientific research, FeTMPyP is utilized as a tool to study the role of peroxynitrite in various biological processes and disease mechanisms. Its high catalytic efficiency allows researchers to investigate the effects of peroxynitrite decomposition on cellular functions and signaling pathways.
Used in Environmental Applications:
FeTMPyP can be employed in environmental applications to neutralize peroxynitrite and other reactive nitrogen species in polluted water or air, thus reducing the overall oxidative stress on ecosystems and improving environmental health.
Used in Material Science:
The unique catalytic properties of FeTMPyP can be harnessed in the development of novel materials with enhanced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These materials can be used in various applications, such as protective coatings, sensors, and advanced medical devices.
