Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant Properties of Phenolic Compounds: H-Atom versus Electron Transfer Mechanism

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations to evaluate the antioxidant activity of molecules commonly present in many Mediterranean foods, including tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol and gallic acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Food Antioxidants: Chemical Insights at the Molecular Level

TL;DR: Comparisons between theoretical and experimental data confirm that modern theoretical tools are not only able to explain controversial experimental facts but also to predict chemical behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Density functional computations of the energetic and spectroscopic parameters of quercetin and its radicals in the gas phase and in solvent

TL;DR: In this article, the B3LYP density functional level of quercetin and its radicals were investigated at the B 3LYP functional level with the aim of determining the energetic and spectroscopic parameters and the factors that influence their antioxidant activity in the gas phase and in aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radical Scavenging Ability of Gallic Acid toward OH and OOH Radicals. Reaction Mechanism and Rate Constants from the Density Functional Theory

TL;DR: It was found that gallic acid is a better antioxidant than the reference compound, Trolox, regardless of the polarity of the environment, and it is predicted to be among the best peroxyl radical scavengers identified so far in nonpolar (lipid) media.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of cysteine with Cu2+ and group IIb (Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+) metal cations: a theoretical study.

TL;DR: The structure and energetics of complexes obtained upon interaction between cysteine and Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+ and Cu2+ cations were studied using quantum chemical density functional theory calculations with the 6-311++G** orbital basis set and relativistic pseudopotentials for the cations.
