Two 2-phenyl-benzofurans, moracin C {2-[3',5'-dihydroxy-4'-(3-methlbut-2-enyl)phenyl]-6-hydroxybenzofuran} and its isomer <i>iso-</i>moracin C{2-[3',5'-dihydroxy-4'-(3-methlbut-1-enyl)phenyl]-6-hydroxybenzofuran}, were comparatively studied using redox-related antioxidant assays and non-redox antioxidant assays. Moracin C always resulted in higher IC<sub>50</sub> values than <i>iso</i>-moracin C in the redox-related antioxidant assays, including •O₂<sup>-</sup>-inhibition, Cu<sup>2+</sup>-reduci ...[more]
