The purpose of this work was to re-evaluate the polar paradox theory (PPT) that explains the relationships between the efficacy of antioxidants, their polarity, and their environments. In this study, ascorbic acid (AA), ascorbyl palmitate (AP), gallic acid (GA), gallyl palmitate (GP), Trolox (TR), α-tocopherol (TO), resveratrol (R), and resveratryl palmitate (RP) were employed to assess conjugated dienoic acid (CDA), the p-anisidine value (p-AV), headspace oxygen content, and hexanal formation in a bulk oil system. TR, TO, R, and RP showed better antioxidant activities in CDA and p-AV and higher headspace oxygen content than AA, AP, GA, and GP. AA showed lower hexanal formation than AP, whereas GP, TO, and RP had better antioxidant activity than their derivatives. These findings suggest that the PPT might be useful to explain the oxidation that occurs at the air-oil interface/association colloids but applying it to other assays might not appropriate.
