Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic, iron dependent form of regulated cell death that is characterized by the accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides. It has drawn considerable attention owing to its putative involvement in diverse neurodegenerative diseases. Ferrostatins are the first identified inhibitors of ferroptosis and they inhibit ferroptosis by efficiently scavenging free radicals in lipid bilayers. However, their further medicinal application has been limited due to the deficient knowledge of the lipid peroxyl radical-trapping mechanism. In this study, experimental and theoretical methods were performed to illustrate the possible lipid hydroperoxide inhibition mechanism of ferrostatins. The results show that an ortho-amine (-NH) moiety from ferrostatins can simultaneously interact with lipid radicals, and then form a planar seven-membered ring in the transition state, and finally present greater reactivity. NBO analysis shows that the formed planar seven-membered ring forces ortho-amines into better alignment with the aromatic π-system. It significantly increases the magnitudes of amine conjugation and improves spin delocalization in the transition state. Additionally, a classical H-bond type interaction was discovered between a radical and an o-NH group as another transition state stabilizing effect. This type of radical-trapping mechanism is novel and has not been found in diphenylamine or traditional polyphenol antioxidants. It can be said that o-phenylenediamine is a privileged pharmacophore for the design and development of ferroptosis inhibitors.

A new protocol for radical transformations of thioamides promoted by Lewis base-boryl radicals is reported. The desulfurizative reduction to access organic amines was enabled utilizing 4-dimethylaminopyridine-BH3 as the boryl radical precursor and PhSH as the polarity reversal catalyst. Alternatively, the chain process for unsaturated thioamides was switched to an annulation reaction using N-heterocyclic carbene-BH3 as the boryl radical precursor and sterically bulky Ph3CSH as the catalyst, allowing for the construction of N-heterocyclic and carbocyclic skeletons.

A new electrophilic amination reaction of functionalized arylazo tosylates with alkylzinc halides or dialkylzinc reagents in THF leads to the corresponding hydrazines. A facile cleavage of the N-N bond is achieved using Raney nickel in refluxing ethanol, leading to substituted secondary aryl-alkylamines in 45-79% yield.
