This study investigated antioxidant activities of cysteine derivatives of amino and carboxylic acid moieties against lipid oxidation in anhydrous acetonitrile. Only cysteine derivatives bearing free amino or carboxylate ion were found to exert potent antioxidant activities. Sequential proton loss and electron transfer-like proton shift and subsequent electron transfer (PS-ET) mechanism may facilitate the antioxidant activities of cysteine derivatives against lipid oxidation in anhydrous media.
