Antioxidant Activity of o-Bisphenols:  the Role of Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonding

Abstract: A kinetic and thermodynamic investigation on the antioxidant activity of 2,2'-methylenebis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) (2), 2,2'-ethylidenebis(4,6-di-tert-butylphenol) (3), and 4,4'-methylenebis(2,6-di-tert-butylphenol) (4) are reported. EPR studies of the equilibration between 3 or 4 and a reference phenol, and the corresponding phenoxyl radicals, allowed us to determine the O-H bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) of the O-H bond as 81.2 and 81.1 kcal/mol in 3 and 4, respectively. Despite this similarity, the a… Show more

“…Hindered phenolic compounds (ArOH) represent the major family of both natural and synthetic antioxidants. 5 They are an excellent additive in polymers and lubricants. 6 In general, efficient phenol antioxidants have substituents in ortho-and/ or para-positions.…”

“…Only for reaction (12) the energy gain calculated with allowance for isomerism increases by 4.31 kcal mol -1 . At the same time comparison of the ∆G M and ∆G eff values for reactions (8), (10), and (12) shows that |∆G eff | = |∆G M | + (0.01-0.05) kcal mol -1 . For reac tion (9) one gets |∆G eff | = |∆G M | + 0.16 kcal mol -1 while for reactions (11) and (13) one has |∆G eff | = |∆G M | -(0.14-0.24) kcal mol -1 .…”

“…10% NaOH (15 mL) were then added to the aqueous solution and the basic products were extracted with ethyl acetate. The reaction products were identified by gc-ms analysis and comparison with authentic samples prepared according to known procedures [2][3][4], [12] and analysed by gc with internal standard. Compound 4 was utilised as internal standard for reaction products 1-3 and 5-20, while compound 5 was used as internal standard for compound 4.…”

“…7). Moreover, we have evaluated [12] that hydrogen abstraction from the =N-OH group in NHPI by peroxyl radical ROO• , (7.2 × 10 3 M -1 s -1 at r.t.) is much faster than from C-H bonds (10 -3 -10 -1 M -1 s -1 ) and we can reasonably expect that hydrogen abstraction by the acylperoxyl radical, RCO-OO . , should also be much faster from =N-OH (eq.…”
