Abstract: A series of new hybrid 2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-N-(benzylidene)propan-2-amine oxide derivatives with different aromatic substitution (PPNs) were synthesized. These molecules were evaluated for their EPR spin trapping potential on eleven different radicals and NO-donation properties in vitro, cytotoxicity and vasoprotective effect on precontracted rat aortic rings. A subfamily of the new PPNs featured an antioxidant moiety occurring in natural phenolic acids. From the experimental screening of these hydroxyphenyl- and methoxyphenyl-substituted PPNs, biocompatible nitrones 4d, and 4g-4i deriving from caffeic, gallic, ferulic and sinapic acids, which combined improved EPR probing of ROS formation, vasorelaxant action and antioxidant potency, might be potential drug candidate alternatives to PBN and its analogues.
