COMPLEX COPPER COMPOUNDS WITH PENTAAMINOTETRAZOLE ARE THE NEW CHALLENGE IN TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF FREE-RADICAL CONDITIONS

Abstract

The present article provides route of synthesis of complex copper compounds with 1.5-pentamethyltetrazole as a ligand. These compounds are considered promising antioxidants that can find application in treatment and prevention of “free radical” conditions caused by a variety of reasons, e.g. harmful environmental factors. The obtained compounds were rated by their antioxidant potential; the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation and SOD-like activity thereof were assessed by independent experimental techniques.
