Conclusions
-
1.
Propyl gallate oxidation in alcoholic NaOH solution has been shown to lead to the formation of radicals.
-
2.
The nature of the radicals formed in this oxidation depends on the NaOH concentration, o-semiquinone ion-radicals being formed in 0.2 M NaOH, and semiquinone ion-radicals, which are subsequently converted into gallic acid radicals, in 2 M NaOH.
-
3.
Addition of DNA reduces the concentrations of the semiquinone ion-radical in 0.2 M NaOH, and promotes the conversion of these radicals into gallic acid radicals in 2 M NaOH.
