Abstract

The metabolism of a new antioxidant agent — phenozan acid — was studied in rabbits. The main directions of this process are (i) oxidation of benzene ring with the formation of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-benzoquinone and (ii) dehydration of the propionic acid fragment with the formation of 4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenylacrylic acid methyl ester. The structures of metabolites were established by computer-aided gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry and confirmed by direct synthesis.
