RESUMO
A new strategy for the efficient synthesis of C-5 heterocyclyl substituted Coenzyme Q analogues was developed by N-alkylation of bromomethylated quinone 11 with a series of amines 12 under metal-free conditions. In vitro antioxidant activities of these Coenzyme Q analogues were evaluated and compared with commercial antioxidant Coenzyme Q10 by employing DPPH assay. All these N-heterocyclyl substituted Coenzyme Q analogues are found to be exhibiting good antioxidant properties and may be used as potent antioxidants for combating oxidative stress.
