5-Acetyl-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde is a synthetic compound that has been shown to exhibit potent antioxidant activity in a variety of assays. It is able to scavenge reactive oxygen species, including superoxide and hydroxyl radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation. 5-Acetyl-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde also has the ability to focus electron flow within the cell, which in turn reduces oxidative stress. This compound may be a lead compound for future research into the development of antioxidants that are not derived from natural sources.
