CAS 641-90-7: 2-Hydroxyemodin

Description:2-Hydroxyemodin, with the CAS number 641-90-7, is a naturally occurring anthraquinone derivative primarily found in certain plants, particularly in the genus Rheum. This compound is characterized by its hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 2-position of the anthraquinone structure, which contributes to its biological activity. It typically appears as a reddish-brown solid and is known for its potential pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial effects. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents, making it more bioavailable. 2-Hydroxyemodin has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications, particularly in traditional medicine, and is of interest in the field of natural product chemistry. Its chemical structure allows for various interactions with biological molecules, which may contribute to its efficacy in different biological systems. As with many natural compounds, further research is necessary to fully understand its mechanisms of action and potential applications in medicine.
