Abstract

4-Vinylsyringol was produced by decarboxylation from sinapic acid. To evaluate the antioxidant activity of 4-vinylsyringol, 500 ppm of 4-vinylsyringol, sinapic acid, or α-tocopherol was added to soybean oil and the oxidation processes were monitored by the peroxide value (PV), the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value (TBARS) assay, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The results obtained by PV and TBARS indicated that soybean oil containing 4-vinylsyringol (SBO-VS) showed the highest oxidative stability. 1H-NMR analysis also showed concurring results. After 19 days of oxidation, the degradation rates of linoleic acid (4.2 %) and linolenic acid (4.4 %) in SBO-VS were significantly lower than those in other oils. Secondary oxidation products (i.e. aldehydes) were undetectable in SBO-VS by 1H NMR, whereas concentrations of such compounds in soybean oils containing α-tocopherol or sinapic acid were 38.0 ± 0.4 and 2.75 ± 0.2 mM oil, respectively. In addition, synergistic antioxidant effect between any two antioxidants was not observed.
