Electrochemistry and Antioxidant Activities of Substituted Furanyl Nitrone: The Role of the Nitro Group

ChemElectroChem, EarlyView.
N‐methyl‐nitroaryl‐furanyl‐nitrone (LQB‐569) suffers a 10‐electron reduction, forming a hydrazine group with two terminal hydroxylamine groups. Nitrones’ antioxidant capacity (AO), despite being very low, correlates with their oxidation profiles, and the ones able to oxidize more easily have better results on DPPH• scavenging and ferric‐reducing ...
