Selected new compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity by free radical screening using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Among the compounds employed, 5a, 5 b, and 5 h showed promising DPPH radical scavenging activities compared to the experimental standards at low concentration (100 µg/mL) after 24 h incubation.
