The autoxidation of methyl linoleate in benzene at 37 °C by peroxyl radicals was found to generate hydroxyl radicals (?OH) from a secondary oxidation mechanism. The yield of hydroxyl radicals (～2%) was determined by trapping these reactive radicals with benzene to give phenol. We propose that αC-H hydrogen abstraction from lipid hydroperoxides, the main autoxidaion products, is the source of hydroxyl radicals. Copyright
