Resumen:
Plants are potential sources of bioactive molecules. According to the Dictionary of Natural Products, around 84% of the bioactive compounds contain at least a hydroxyl group or an amine group in their structure. Previously, we hadinvestigated the antioxidant properties of Zinnia peruviana (L.) L. (Asteraceae), and promising results were obtained. It is well-accepted that the antioxidant activity is markedly influenced by the presence of hydroxyl groupsin a chemical structure.
