Electron-transfer mechanism in radical-scavenging reactions by a vitamin E model in a protic medium

Abstract: The scavenging reaction of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH.) or galvinoxyl radical (GO.) by a vitamin E model, 2,2,5,7,8-pentamethylchroman-6-ol (1H), was significantly accelerated by the presence of Mg(ClO4)2 in de-aerated methanol (MeOH). Such an acceleration indicates that the radical-scavenging reaction of 1H in MeOH proceeds via an electron transfer from 1H to the radical, followed by a proton transfer, rather than the one-step hydrogen atom transfer which has been observed in acetonitrile (Me… Show more

“…The oxidation potentials of complexes (F 1 1/2 , V) are more electropositive than the potential of one-electron reduction of DPPH radical (F red 1/2 ¼ 0.3 V) in given experimental conditions. This fact leads to increase of Gibbs free energy in electron transfer process [DG 0 ¼ e(F 1 1/2 À F red 1/2 ) > 0] [45]. These data are in accordance with values of calculated velocity constant (Table 1).…”

“…This would allow a more accurate and reasonable comparison of the efficiencies of compounds and extracts analysed, since they were evaluated under similar experimental conditions . Indeed, antioxidant properties can varied strongly depending on the nature of the solvent use for the analysis . Recently, acetonitrile was successfully used as solvent for the electrochemical evaluation of antioxidant properties of some metal complex, despite no systematic study was performed to show by mean of electrochemistry, the interactions between DPPH and the compounds tested …”
