CAS 19237-53-7: Benzoyl glucuronide
Description:Benzoyl glucuronide is a chemical compound that serves as a metabolite of benzoyl peroxide, commonly used in acne treatment. It is characterized by its glucuronide structure, which involves the conjugation of benzoyl with glucuronic acid, a sugar acid that plays a significant role in the detoxification and excretion of various substances in the body. This compound is typically found in biological fluids, such as urine, following the metabolism of benzoyl peroxide. Benzoyl glucuronide is generally soluble in water due to its polar glucuronic acid component, which enhances its excretion through renal pathways. Its presence in biological samples can be indicative of benzoyl peroxide exposure and is often analyzed in pharmacokinetic studies. The compound is not known to exhibit significant toxicity, making it a relatively safe metabolite in the context of its parent compound's therapeutic use. Overall, benzoyl glucuronide is an important marker in understanding the metabolic pathways of certain dermatological treatments.
