Abstract
This paper presents the spectral and electrochemical properties correlated to antioxidant character attributed to anthocyans: Pelargonidin-3-O-Glucoside, Cyanidin-3-O-Glucoside, Delphinidin-3-O-Glucoside, Peonidin-3-O-Glucoside, Malvidin-3-O-Glucoside. The Anthocyans were obtained and purified from natural selective hydroalcoholic extracts using HPLC chromatography. A series of determinations through the chemical voltammetry method were performed in view of identifying the anthocyanins’ oxidation and reduction potentials. These determinations were performed in electrochemical environments with different polarities and pH, in N, N-Dimethylformamide–Ethanol-Hydrochloric acid–Water systems. The results obtained offered data regarding the stability of anthocyans in the respective media. For Pelargonidin-3-O-Glucoside we performed detailed UV-VIS spectro-electrochemical measurements, using an optically transparent thin layer electrochemical cell. The results of these determinations offered information regarding the mechanism of redox processes.
