Unveiling the Intimate Mechanism of the Crocin Antioxidant Properties by Radiolytic Analysis and Molecular Simulations

The successive steps of the oxidation mechanism of crocin, a major compound of saffron, by the free OH<sup>•</sup> radical are investigated by pulse radiolysis, steady-state (gamma) radiolysis methods, and molecular simulations. The optical absorption properties of the transient species...
