A computational methodology for accurate predictions of rate constants in solution: Application to the assessment of primary antioxidant activity

Antioxidant activity of fraxetin and its regeneration in aqueous media. A density functional theory study

Fraxetin is an excellent and versatile antioxidant in aqueous media. In addition it regenerates, scavenging two radical equivalents per cycle.

Tryptophan: antioxidant or target of oxidative stress? A quantum chemistry elucidation

Not a good antioxidant as a free molecule. Not a particularly easy target of common ROS in biological systems.
