Mactanamide (<b>MA</b>) is a diketopiperazine isolated from marine fungi of the genus <i>Aspergillus</i>. This compound is known as a natural antioxidant from experimental studies, yet this activity has not been successfully modeled thus far. In this work, the hydroperoxyl radical scavenging activity of <b>MA</b> was evaluated in the gas phase and physiological environments by thermodynamic and kinetic calculations. The results revealed that the HOO<sup>•</sup> radical scavenging of <b>MA</b> in ...[more]
