E masani ona faʻaaogaina e avea ma antioxidant, mea e puipuia ai laʻau, resini gaosia, vailaʻau, vailaʻau vailaʻau vavalo ma mea mata o le tofo ma le manogi.

p-tert-butylcatechol ose oloa vaila'au lelei ma le tele o fa'aoga. O lona fa'asologa e masani lava ona fa'avae i luga o le alkylation method of catechol. E tusa ai ma suʻesuʻega suʻesuʻega, o le alkylation method mo le tuʻufaʻatasia o le p-tert-butylcatechol e umi le taimi e tali atu ai, manaʻoga maualuga malosi, faʻaleagaina o meafaigaluega, ma le faʻaleagaina o le siosiomaga e mafua mai i le vavaeeseina o oloa. O nei uiga e le fetaui ma manaʻoga o gaosiga faʻapisinisi ma kemisi lanumeamata. O le hydroxylation o phenols ma le hydrogen peroxyide e i ai tulaga malie tali, mea faigofie ma taugofie, ma le maualuga o le faauo i le siosiomaga, lea e fetaui ma manaoga o le kemisi lanu meamata. Faatasi ai ma i latou, o le hydroxylation process o phenol ua faʻatautaia, ma o le suʻesuʻega faʻataʻitaʻiga o le benzene hydroxylation tali e matua matua foi. Ae ui i lea, o le hydroxylation tuusao o le p-tert-butylphenol ma le hydrogen peroxide e saunia ai le p-tert-butylcatechol ua lipotia mai e seasea lava.
