Abstract:The reactivity of 5-[(E)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethen-1-yl]benzene-1,3-diol (trans-resveratrol) and related compounds toward electrogenerated superoxide radical anion (O2•−) was investigated using electrochemistry, in situ electrolytic electron spin resonance, and in situ electrolytic ultraviolet–visible spectral measurements, in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The quasi-reversible cyclic voltammogram of dioxygen/O2•− was modified by the presence of trans-r… Show more
