What structural features of BHT are responsible for its antioxidant properties?
BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) contains antioxidant properties due to its ability to donate hydrogen atoms to free radicals, thereby stabilizing and neutralizing them. This is mainly attributed to its aromatic ring structure and the presence of hydroxyl groups, which allows it to scavenge free radicals and prevent oxidation reactions. Additionally, BHT is a lipophilic molecule, enabling it to penetrate lipid-rich environments and protect fats and oils from oxidative damage.

What antioxidants scavenge or quench what radicals?
Antioxidants are compounds that neutralize free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can cause cellular damage. Key antioxidants include vitamin C, which scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) like superoxide and hydroxyl radicals; vitamin E, which primarily protects cell membranes from lipid peroxyl radicals; and glutathione, which detoxifies a variety of reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and peroxides. Together, these antioxidants help maintain cellular health by mitigating oxidative stress.
