چکیده

O comportamento eletroquímico da vitamina E em meio hidro-alcoólico foi estudado na faixa de pH 3,1-12,1 aplicando-se as técnicas voltametria cíclica, eletrólise com potencial controlado e espectroscopias UV-Vis, IR e C RMN. Observou-se que a presença de água tem conseqüências importantes na estabilidade química das espécies geradas eletroquimicamente. Em meio hidro-alcoólico e sobre eletrodos de carbono vítreo, a vitamina E apresenta três picos de oxidação, enquanto que apenas um pico é observado em outros solventes. Embora a reação eletroquímica no primeiro pico seja a mesma na presença e na ausência de água, a qual compreende a transferência de dois elétrons em uma etapa, duas reações eletroquímicas e três químicas subseqüentes ao primeiro pico foram pela primeira vez estabelecidas com base em evidências eletroquímicas em meio hidro-alcoólico. Estes resultados são considerados muito importantes levando-se em consideração o papel mediador na transferência de elétrons entre a fase aquosa e lipídica que a vitamina E exerce no organismo.
