Tea (Camellia sinensis) leaves contain various antioxidants such as ascorbic acid (1) and polyphenols. This study tries to clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying the antioxidative and radical-scavenging activities of these antioxidants, and the reactivities of each antioxidant have been
We report the use of exciton-coupled circular dichroism (ECCD) spectroscopy in multianalyte sensing systems in complex matrices. To prepare ECCD sensors, anionic anthrylhydazides are reacted with formylphenylboronic acids to give hydrazinoanthrylboronic acids that in turn are reacted with
