[Study of the stability of 2-methoxy-4-(2-propenyl) hydroxybenzene in biological material].

The purpose of this work is to study the stability of 2-methoxy-4-(2-propenyl)hydroxybenzene [2-MO-4-(2-P)HOB] in biological material. For analysis, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used: column DB-5MS EVIDEX (25 m × 0.2 mm) with a stationary phase of 5%-phenyl-95%-dimethylpolysiloxane; thin layer chromatography (TLC): Sorbfil plates, hexane-dioxane-propanol-2 mobile phase (40:5:1) and UV spectrophotometry (solvent - 95% ethanol). 2-MO-4-(2-P)HOB was isolated from the biomatrix (liver tissue) by infusion with a mixture of ethyl acetate-acetone (7:3). Purification of the analyte was carried out by combining extraction (water-ethyl acetate system) and semi-preparative column chromatography [sorbent - silica gel L 40/100 μm, eluent - hexane-dioxane (8.5:1.5)]. It was established that at -22 °C, 4 °C, 12 °C, 20 °C and 30 °C 2-MO-4-(2-P)HOB is stored in the liver tissue for 385, 357, 301, 245 and 217 days, respectively. We studied the possibility of mathematical description of the dynamics of analyte decomposition in a biomaterial (liver tissue) at the indicated temperatures using the hyperbolic equation. The coefficients in the hyperbola equation (k av ), calculated according to the results of the experiment, for temperatures of -22 °C, 4 °C, 12 °C, 20 °C and 30 °C amounted to 6223, 3036, 2387, 1903 and 932, respectively., which is described by the equation: kav=101.19∙(50-to)-1272.78. It was established that on the basis of this equation it is possible to predict the nature of the stability of 2-MO-4-(2-P)HOB in the biomaterial (liver tissue) at temperatures in the range from -22 °C to 30 °C.
