A novel way to synthesize antioxidant substances

Scientists have proposed a novel way to address the most important and fundamental challenge of organic chemistry, such as breaking a bond between carbon and hydrogen atoms to form new organic substances. They were the first to carry out “breaking” in water thanks to especially synthesized substances called arylbenziodoxaboroles. As a result, the scientists synthesized a number of novel phenolic substances that possess high biological and antioxidant activity. In the future, they can be used for drug creation. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/12/171222092506.htm
