Table 9. Different mechanisms of antioxidant action and the parameters describing the activity [37].
Mechanism | Reaction | Parameter |
---|---|---|
HAT | (1) ArOH + X• → ArO•+ XH | (1) B.D.E = H(ArO•) + H(H•)–H(ArOH) |
SET-PT | (1) ArOH + X• → ArOH•+ + X– | (1) IP = H(ArOH•+) + H(H+)—H(ArOH) |
(2) ArOH•+ → ArO• + H+ | (2) PDE = H(ArO•) + H(H+)–H(ArOH•+) | |
SPLET | (1) ArOH → ArO−+ H+ | (1) PA = H(ArO-) + H(H+)–H(ArOH) |
(2) ArO−+ X• + H+ → ArO• + XH | (2) ETE = H(ArO•) + H(e-)–H(ArO-) |
