A novel oxidative dimer was isolated as a major product from a reaction mixture of methyl protocatechuate and DPPH radical in methanol. Its unusual benzobicyclo[3.2.1]octane structure was elucidated by extensive spectral analysis. This result suggests that the regeneration of catechol structures by the nucleophilic addition of an alcohol molecule on o-quinones and subsequent dimerization is one of the key reactions in the high radical-scavenging activity of protocatechuic esters in an alcoholic solvent.
