  "abstract": "Novel antioxidant compounds for use in foodstuffs containing oils or fats are described which comprise benzodioxole compounds having the structure ##STR1## wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group or an aryl group, R 2 is an alkyl group or an aryl group, or R 1 and R 2 together form a cyclo alkyl group, and R 3 is a hydrogen atom or an hydroxyl group.",
  "claims": [
    "1. A method of retarding oxidation of foodstuffs containing edible oils or fats, comprising, mixing with a foodstuff an antioxidation effective amount of a benzodioxole compound having the structure ##STR13## wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group or an aryl group; R 2 is an alkyl group or an aryl group; or R 1 and R 2 together form a cycloalkyl group; and R 3 is a hydrogen atom or an hydroxyl group.",
    "2. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein said foodstuff comprises an edible oil.",
    "3. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein the effective amount of said benzodioxole compound is 0.1% to 0.001% by weight.",
    "4. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 is CH 3, R 2 is C 2 H 5 and R 3 is H.",
    "5. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 is CH 3, R 2 is C 4 H 9 and R 3 is H.",
    "6. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 is CH 3, R 2 is C 7 H 15 and R 3 is H.",
    "7. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 is CH 3, R 2 is C 9 H 19 and R 3 is H.",
    "8. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 is CH 3, R 2 is C 11 H 21 and R 3 is H.",
    "9. The method of retarding oxidation according to claim 1, wherein R 1 and R 2 each comprises a phenyl radical and R 3 is H."
