Abstract
The ABTS•+ radical cation scavenging activity of known (2-5, 9, 10) and new (6-8) 1’-hydroxyethylnaphthazarins and their products of esterification and etherification was evaluated and a structure-activity relationship was studied. It was shown, that the structure of side chains does not affect the radical scavenging activity of 1’-hydroxyethylnaphthazarins and their derivatives. The presence of methoxyl groups on the naphthazarin core slightly enhanced the antioxidant activity of compounds compared with compounds without methoxyl groups. The presence of the additional hydroxyl group on the naphthazarin moiety of isonorlomazarin (5) and its derivative (6) is essential for the activity.
