Abstract

The time- and dose-dependent occurrence of 4-(3-methyl-2- butenoxy)isonitrosoacetophenone, a γ-irradiation-induced stress metabolite was investigated. The chemical synthesis of the compound is reported. The compound exhibits antifungal activity, as well as antioxidant activity, as indicated by its ability to scavenge reactive oxygen radicals in a chemiluminescence assay.
