Structural-Spectroscopic Properties and Antioxidant Activity Studies of Naringenin in Solvent Media
Abstract
In this study, solvent effects on the structural and spectroscopic properties of the naringenin have been investigated. Geometric parameters were calculated and were compared with the experimental X-ray crystallographic data. In addition, optimized structures were obtained in solvent media and the solvents effects on geometric parameters were determined. Vibrational modes obtained in the vacuum and in solvent environments were compared with the experimental IR spectrum. Furthermore, the HOMO-LUMO energies and chemical reactivity were also determined. Antioxidant activity of naringenin has been investigated with hydrogen atom abstraction from −OH groups. The bond dissociation enthalpies have been calculated and it is determined that this process should be the main mechanism for the antioxidant activity of naringenin. According to the calculation results, surprisingly, it has been found that in DMSO, BDE values of naringenin are significantly reduced and thus antioxidant activity is increased compared to other media.
