both dashes in the paragraph  Compounds containing a phenol group may work as ANTIOXIDANTS to prevent free radical damage.  This is accomplished when a free radical (or UV light) encounters a phenol group, turning the phenol group into a radical.  However, contrary to typical radical behavior, the structure of the phenol radical can neutralize (or quench) the unpaired electron.  Specifically, the phenol structure neutralizes (or quenches) the unpaired radical electron by doing the following: taking the electron and ---------.  The correct name (or abbreviation) of an example compound (discussed in the lecture videos) containing a phenol group with antioxidant properties is: ---------.

Designing a Synthesis

Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis that involves the planned construction of organic compounds/molecules from smaller units that possess functional groups. Friedrich Wöhler was the first scientist who designed the synthesis of an organic compound, urea from inorganic starting materials silver cyanate with ammonium chloride via a simple, one-step synthesis.
