The authors previously reported 2-alkyl-2-methyl-1, 3-dioxaindans to possess antioxidative activity toward lards, and alkyl groups at the 2-position of these compounds to be a determining factor of activity. The introduction of the t-butyl group into the aromatic ring in these compounds resulted in high antioxidative activity.
2, 2-Dialkyl-1, 3-dioxaindans were synthesized for comparison of the effects of the alkyl group at the 2-position on antioxidative activity. Methyl, t-butyl or amino group was introduced into the aromatic rings of these compounds. Based on the antioxidative activity of these compounds, assessment was made of the influence of the functional groups on the aromatic ring. These groups were found to have greater antioxidative effect than that of the alkyl group at the 2-position.
