Multidefence antioxidants represent a valuable solution for the protection against oxidative stress. From the planned synthesis of a catechol-tocopherol hybrid, we isolated a catechol-hydroquinone hybrid through a BBr3-mediated benzochromene-fluoren-1-ol transposition. The compound prepared showed a remarkable chain-breaking antioxidant in the catechol portion, while the very sensitive hydroquinone moiety revealed to be an efficient generator of hydroperoxyl radicals.

Abstract

Multidefence antioxidants represent a valuable solution for the protection against oxidative stress. From the planned synthesis of a catechol-tocopherol hybrid, we isolated a catechol-hydroquinone hybrid through a BBr3-mediated benzochromene-fluoren-1-ol transposition. The compound prepared showed a remarkable chain-breaking antioxidant in the catechol portion, while the very sensitive hydroquinone moiety revealed to be an efficient generator of hydroperoxyl radicals.
