What is ADRENOCHROME?
Chemical properties
Red Crystalline Solid
The Uses of ADRENOCHROME
Adrenochrome is a derivative of epinephrine. When complexed with a salicylate, its stability is increased (carbazochrome). It was claimed to reduce blood loss, but the evidence is sparse.
The Uses of ADRENOCHROME
The substance mainly responsible for the red colours produced during the mild oxidation of adrenaline
What are the applications of Application
Adrenochrome is an inhibitor of catechol-o-methyltransferase
Definition
ChEBI: Adrenochrome is a member of indoles.
Purification Methods
It was crystallised from MeOH/formic acid, as red crystals of the hemihydrate, and stored in a vacuum desiccator. The mono-semicarbazone (Carbazochrome) [69-81-8] M 236.2, crystallises as orange-red crystals from dilute EtOH with m ~203o (dec) and is haemostatic.
