Abstract
Spin trapping is a technique for detecting short-lived (reactive) free radicals. It consists in producing an ESR detectable (long-lived) radical by an addition reaction of the short-lived radical on a trapping agent. The spin trap is generally a nitrone or a nitroso compound. then the spin adduct an aminoxyl radical having at least a three lines spectrum. Nuclei having a magnetic moment can interact with the aminoxyl unpaired electron causing further hyperfine splitting whose constants can help to identify the trapped species.
