Abstract:
Antioxidants are widely used in medicine due to their ability to bind free radicals - active biomolecules that destroy the genetic apparatus of cells and the structure of their membranes, which makes it possible to reduce the intensity of oxidative processes in the body. In a living organism, free radicals are involved in various processes, but their activity is controlled by antioxidants. The purpose of this work was to conduct a series of studies to identify the antioxidant activity of new synthesized compounds of a series of oxalic acid diamides in the brain and liver tissue of white rats in vivo and in vitro experiments, as well as to determine their potential pharmacological properties. The studies were conducted on outbred white male rats, weighing 180-200 g, kept on a normal diet. After autopsy, the brain and liver were isolated, washed with saline, cleared of blood vessels, and homogenized in Tris-HCl buffer (pH-7.4) (in vitro). The research results showed significant antioxidant activity (AOA) of all compounds with varying effectiveness. The most pronounced activity was demonstrated by compound SV-425 in both brain and liver tissues. Compound SV-427 demonstrated the least activity, with levels in brain tissue and liver tissue. In addition, all physicochemical descriptors of the studied compounds comply with Lipinski's rule of five to identify new molecules for the treatment of oxidative stress. From the data obtained, it can be concluded that the studied compounds have antioxidant properties, helping to protect cells from oxidative stress. This is important for the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with increased levels of free radicals.

Radical Autoxidation
Oxidation of Alcohols
The process of oxidation in a chemical reaction is observed in any of the three forms:
Oxidations of Aldehydes and Ketones to Carboxylic Acids
Aldehydes readily undergo oxidation in strong oxidizing agents such as potassium permanganate and chromic acid. The oxidation can also be carried out using mild oxidizing agents such as silver oxide. In fact, aldehydes can be easily oxidized...
