PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide is a member of the class of 1-pyrroline nitrones (1-pyrroline N-oxides) resulting from the formal N-oxidation of 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline. Used as a spin trap for the study of radicals formed by enzymatic acetaldehyde oxidation. It has a role as a neuroprotective agent and a spin trapping reagent. It is functionally related to a 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline.
