Abstract

A series of 1, 5-diphenyl-1, 4-pentadiene-3-ones and cyclic analogues with OH-groups in the para position of the phenyl rings and various meta substituents were prepared and their antioxidant activity compared with that of curcumin. Most of them exhibited potent antioxidative activity, especially when all the meta positions were substituted by methoxy groups.
