Relative reactivity of CH3CCl3 and CF3CCl3 measured in competitive addition reactions with 1-hexene in the presence of free radical initiators or Cu, Pd and Ru complexes was found to depend on the type of catalyst. The unusual course of the reaction has been found in the additions catalyzed with copper(I)-amine complexes where CH3CCl3 in competition with CF3CCl3 was completely unreactive. The results have been explained in terms of the change of reaction mechanism and compared with classical free radical initiation.

Penelitian pendahuluan tentang aktivitas antioksidan ekstrak etanol dan ekstrak etil asetat daun dewandaru (Eugenia uniflora L.) menunjukkan potensi anti radikal bebas yang tinggi dari kedua ekstrak. Oleh karena itu telah dilakukan fraksinasi ekstrak etanol dan ekstrak etil asetat daun dewandaru, serta pengujian aktivitas antiradikal dari masing-masing fraksi. Selain itu, penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah ada korelasi antara kandungan fenol dan flavonoid total dalam berbagai fraksi tersebut dengan aktivitas antiradikalnya. Daun dewandaru diekstraksi dengan kloroform, etil asetat, dan etanol secara maserasi bertingkat. Selanjutnya dilakukan fraksinasi terhadap masing-masing ekstrak etanol dan ekstrak etil asetat menggunakan kromatografi kolom gravitasi dengan fase diam silika G60 dan fase gerak campuran perbandingan tertentu antara kloroform, etil asetat, etanol, dan air secara gradien kepolaran. Aktivitas antiradikal diukur secara spektrofotometri dengan pereaksi DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhidrazyl) dan sebagai pembanding digunakan vitamin E. Penentuan kadar fenol dan flavonoid total dalam fraksi secara spektrofotometri menggunakan pereaksi Folin Ciocalteu untuk penetapan kadar fenol total, sedangkan untuk penentuan kadar flavonoid total menggunakan pereaksi AlCl3. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa fraksi-fraksi dari ekstrak etil asetat dan ekstrak etanol daun dewandaru mempunyai aktivitas antiradikal yang cukup tinggi. Lima fraksi dari ekstrak etanol memiliki aktivitas antiradikal lebih tinggi dibanding vitamin E. Aktivitas antiradikal paling tinggi ditunjukkan dengan nilai ARP (antiradical power) sebesar 3496,5 mg DPPH/mg sampel, sedangkan vitamin E sebesar 1776,20 mg DPPH/mg sampel. Korelasi antara kadar fenol maupun flavonoid total dalam berbagai fraksi tersebut dengan aktivitas antiradikalnya menunjukkan korelasi positif dengan korelasi sebesar 0,55 dan 0,45. Berdasarkan hasil diatas dapat disimpulkan bahwa fraksi-fraksi polar daun dewandaru mempunyai aktivitas antiradikal yang lebih tinggi daripada vitamin E, namun aktivitas tersebut berkorelasi rendah dengan kandungan fenol dan flavonoid totalnya.   Preliminary research on the antioxidant activity of ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts of Dewandaru leaves (Eugenia uniflora L.) showed high anti-free radical potency from both extracts. Therefore fractionation of the ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts of dewandaru leaves was carried out, as well as evaluation of antiradical activity of each fraction. In addition, this study also aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between the phenol and total flavonoid content in various fractions with their anti-inflammatory activity.Dewandaru leaves were extracted by sequentially maceration with chloroform, ethyl acetate and ethanol. Furthermore, the ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts were fractionated  using gravity column chromatography with silica G60 as stationary phase and increasing polarity of mobile phase by  varying the ratio of chloroform, ethyl acetate and ethanol. Anti-free radical activity was determined using spectrophotometer and DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhidrazyl), vitamin E was used as a standard. Determination of total phenol and flavonoid content was determined using spectrophotometer, Folin Ciocalteu reagent was used to determine total phenolic content, meanwhile  ALCl3 reagent was used to determine total flavonoid content.  The results showed that fractions of  ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts of dewandaru leaves showed high anti-free radical activity. Of all fractions, there 5 fractions of ethanol extract showed higher anti-free radical activity as compared to vitamin E.  The highest anti-free radical activity is indicated by ARP (antiradical power) value of 3496.5 mg DPPH/mg sample, meanwhile the ARP value of vitamin E was 1776,20 mg DPPH/mg sample. Correlation between total phenol and flavonoid content of those fractions indicated positive correlation with correlation value of 0.55 and 0.45 respectively. Based on the results, it can be concluded that polar fractions of dewandaru leaves displayed higher anti-free radical activity as compared to vitamin E, however those activitiesdid not have correlation with their total phenolic and flavonoid content

Free radical that are released in cigarette smoke, believed to play an important role in male infertility. The free radicalproduces Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) that is found increased in male smokers. ROS is one of the free radicalscomponent can be neutralized by vitamin C and E as an antioxidant. This study using those agents to the fifteen minuteshalf piece cigarette to expose mice and count their sperm as the fertilility parameter. The research design used was posttest-only control group with twenty mice were divided into five groups. A group of no smoke exposed was categorizedas a baseline control, the exposed groups were consisted of one group without antioxidant, one group with vitamin Ctreatment, a group of vitamin E treatment and at last the combination of vitamin C and E. All groups were treatedfor fourteen days. The results were analyzed using oneway ANOVA with p<0.05. It is obviously proven that thecombination of vitamin C and vitamin E treatment on the usual dose gave the highest sperm count compared to othergroups.
