Abstract:
Conformationally restricted naphthalene peri-diselenides function as glutathione peroxidase mimetics with superior catalytic activity to that displayed by typical acyclic diaryl diselenides. Their activity was increased by electron-donating methoxy substituents, while a further 100-fold increase was observed with the corresponding ditelluride.
