摘要
The transformation of simple phenols with limited antioxidant activity into potent chain-breaking antioxidants was achieved by a three-step protocol, consisting of the conversion of phenols into 1,4-benzo[b]oxathiines followed by an unprecedented acid-promoted transposition to o-hydroxydihydrobenzo[b]thiophenes, or dihydrobenzo[de]thiochromenes, starting from phenols or naphthols, respectively. These derivatives, bearing a benzo-fused heterocycle with a sulfide sulfur ortho to the phenolic OH, have a rate constant of reaction with alkylperoxyl radicals (k(inh)) comparable to that of -tocopherol. A solid rationale for the transposition mechanism as well as for the structure-antioxidant activity relationship is presented.
