Abstract

The damage caused by reactive oxygen radicals to the body is huge, and it can lead to aging of the human body and cause the occurrence of many diseases. Therefore, finding new antioxidant substance is urgent. In order to obtain new non-toxic antioxidant reagent, 3 kinds of di-amino-Schiff base derivatives of chitosan were prepared by grafting urea molecule onto chitosan chain using chitosan as raw material in this paper. The reaction conditions such as different reaction time, temperature, solvent and the molar ratio of reaction materials were discussed, and the structures of the derivatives were characterized by FT-IR and 13C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The antioxidant activities of chitosan and its derivatives were tested, including the scavenging ability of superoxide anions, hydroxyl radicals and DPPH radicals. The experimental results show that the derivatives and chitosan all have good antioxidant activities, of which the removal rate of HCS for ·OH is 78.2%; and the clearance of DSABHCS at concentration of 500 μg·mL-1 toward O2- is 97.8%; the clearance of LCS to DPPH is 94.3% at concentration of 600 μg·mL-1. These results laid the foundation for the development of chitosan and its derivatives using as new antioxidant reagents.
