Abstract
The Michael acceptor 1,4-bis-(E)-2-(arylsulfonylvinyl)benzene was exploited to prepare a new series of bis heterocycles-(1,4-phenylene)bis(arylsulfonylpyrrole) and (1,4-phenylene)bis(arylsulfonyl pyrazole). All of the compounds were tested for antioxidant activity. Amongst the tested compounds, 1,4-bis-(E)-2-(arylsulfonylvinyl)benzene (5) was found to be the best potential antioxidant agent.
