A novel water-soluble cystine C₆₀ derivative was synthesized in the presence of the catalyst, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH). The product was characterized by FT-IR, UV, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, MS and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the scavenging ability to superoxygen anion radical O₂^·- and hydroxyl radical ^·OH was studied by chemiluminescence.It was found that cystine C₆₀ derivative showed an excellent efficiency in eliminating superoxygen anion radical and hydroxyl radical. The 50%inhibition concentration (IC₅₀) for superoxygen anion radical and hydroxyl radical were 0.167 and 0.008 mg/mL, respectively.
