5-Methoxyresorcinol was used in synthesis of:
  • isorobustin
  • substituted linear and angular benzofurocoumarins

General description

Kinetics of the aroxyl radical-scavenging action of 5-methoxyresorcinol has been investigated. The kinetics of reaction of 5,7-diisopropyl-tocopheroxyl radical (Toc) with 5-methoxyresorcinol has been measured by stopped-flow spectrophotometer.
