Rheinanthrone

Description:

Rheinanthrone, with the CAS number 480-09-1, is a naturally occurring anthraquinone derivative primarily found in certain plant species. It is characterized by its vibrant yellow to orange color, which is typical of many anthraquinones. This compound exhibits a range of biological activities, including antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, making it of interest in both pharmacological and cosmetic applications. Rheinanthrone is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is common for many organic compounds of its class. Its structure features multiple aromatic rings, contributing to its stability and reactivity. Additionally, rheinanthrone can undergo various chemical reactions, such as oxidation and reduction, which can modify its properties and potential applications. Due to its natural origin, it is often studied for its ecological roles and potential therapeutic benefits, particularly in traditional medicine. As with many chemical substances, safety and handling precautions should be observed, as anthraquinones can exhibit toxicity at certain concentrations.

Rhein-9-anthrone

CAS: 480-09-1

Rhein-9-anthrone is a protein synthesis inhibitor that binds to the formyl peptide receptor of the cell membrane. It is used as a medicine in Japan and China, where it is extracted from the root of Rhei rhizoma. Rhein-9-anthrone has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells by binding to acetate extract, which leads to an increase in PGE2 levels and decreased redox potential. The drug also shows anti-inflammatory properties, inhibiting urea nitrogen and autoimmune disease activity.
