Due to the negative impact of reactive species (including free radicals) on humans and
animals, the investigations to find effective substances (antioxidants), which protect living …

This review surveys the major structural features in various groups of small molecules that
are considered to be antioxidants, including natural and synthetic compounds alike. Recent …

The kinetic behavior of cinnamic acids, their methyl esters, and two catechols 1− 10 (ArOH)
