  The study of compounds with antioxidant capabilities is of great interest to
the scientific community, as it has implications in several areas, from
Agricultural Sciences to Biological Sciences, including Food Engineering,
Medicine and Pharmacy. In applications related to human health, it is known
that antioxidant activity can delay or inhibit oxidative damage to cells,
reducing damage caused by free radicals, helping in the treatment, or even
preventing or postponing the onset of various diseases. Among the compounds
that have antioxidant properties, there are several classes of Phenolic
Compounds, which include several compounds with different chemical structures.
In this work, based on the molecular branching of compounds and their
intramolecular charge distributions, and using Molecular Topology, we propose a
significant topological-mathematical model to evaluate the potential of
candidate compounds to have an antioxidant function.
