Abstract

In recent years, the interest in polyconjugated systems has increased due to the antioxidant properties of these molecules. 1, 2 and 3 Polyunsaturated aldehydes and alcohols have been evaluated in a number of biochemical and pharmacological studies, 4, 5 and 6 which have identified their potential role as antioxidant and antiproliferative molecules. ... Polyconjugated aldehydes were obtained following Kuhn 7 and Blout 8 procedures by self-condensation of ...
