A study on the regeneration of α-tocopherol (vitamin E) by phenolic co-antioxidants in homogeneous hydrocarbon solution is reported. The behavior of some relevant phenols such as BHA, BHT, and trans-resveratrol appears to be nicely predicted by a model based on the knowledge of kinetic and thermochemical data concerning the various reactants. Despite its good reputation as an antioxidant, trans-resveratrol was found only moderately effective (kinh = 2.0 × 105 M-1 s -1 in chlorobenzene at 303 K) and unable to recycle vitamin E.

In order to shed light on the mechanism of proton-transfer reactions, a kinetic and ab initio study of the antioxidant action (intermolecular proton transfer) of vitamin E derivatives has been carried out.The second-order rate constants (ks's)

From kinetic data concerning the reaction of benzoyl peroxide (POB) with several phenolic antioxidants (ArOH): POB + ArOH -> C6H5CO2. + C6H5CO2H + ArO., it is shown that differences in the phenolic O-H bond dissociation energies may be obtained.In the particular case of α-tocopherol (α-TH), a stabilization energy defined with respect to phenol: D(C6H5O-H) - D(α-T-H) = 10 kcal.mol-1 has been estimated in heptanol as solvent.It would correspond for α-TH to an O-H bond dissociation energy around 78 kcal.mol-1.
