Abstract
The reaction products of selected organoselenium compounds, diphenyl selenide and diphenyl selenoxide with model lipid hydroperoxide, cumene hydroperoxide, were studied using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography methods, as well as the release of free radicals was determined by the inhibitor method. It has been established, that the reaction products of the studied organoselenium compounds and cumene hydroperoxide are dimethylphenylcarbinol, acetophenone and α-methylstyrene, and the reaction sequentially continues until the formation of diphenylselenone. It was also confirmed by the inhibitor method that these reactions proceed without the formation of free radicals.
