Catechol (/ ˈ k æ t ɪ tʃ ɒ l / or / ˈ k æ t ɪ k ɒ l /), also known as pyrocatechol or 1,2-dihydroxybenzene, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C 6 H 4 (OH) 2. It is the ortho isomer of the three isomeric benzenediols .
There are three structural isomers: 1,2-dihydroxybenzene (the ortho isomer) is commonly known as catechol, 1,3-dihydroxybenzene (the meta isomer) is commonly known as resorcinol, and 1,4-dihydroxybenzene (the para isomer) is commonly known as hydroquinone. [1]
1,2-Benzoquinone, also called ortho-benzoquinone, is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 4 O 2. It is one of the two isomers of quinone , the other being 1,4-benzoquinone . It is a red volatile solid that is soluble in water and ethyl ether .
Fractional crystallisation can be used to obtain pure para product, relying on the principle that it is less soluble than the ortho and thus will crystallise first. Care must be taken to avoid cocrystallisation of the ortho isomer. [2] Many nitro compounds' ortho and para isomers have quite different boiling points. These isomers can often be ...
Metabolism of levodopa by catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC). COMT inhibitors prevent the conversion of levodopa to 3- O -methyldopa. A catechol- O -methyltransferase inhibitor ( COMT inhibitor ) is a drug that inhibits the enzyme catechol- O -methyltransferase .
