Abstract
The rate constants (k1) and stoichiometric coefficients (f) of chain termination in the oxidation of lipid models (methyl esters of acids in the oleic series) by α-tocopherol and its synthetic analog at 50°C were measured. The values of k1 and f do not depend on the structure of the substituent R in the peroxide radical ROO of the lipid models undergoing oxidation, but the values of k1 are determined by the conformation of the investigated phenols.
