The present invention is a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant prodrug useful for the prevention or treatment of diseases or conditions associated with mitochondrial dysfunction resulting from changes in the mitochondrial redox environment. Antioxidant prodrugs of the invention are produced by modifying an antioxidant to a fatty acid so that the resulting prodrug is targeted to and activated by an enzyme of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation.
