Beschreibung

[(1R,4R)-4-Methylcyclohexyl]methanol is an organic compound that is a glycol ether. It is used as a solvent in the production of polymers, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. [(1R,4R)-4-Methylcyclohexyl]methanol has been shown to have significant interactions with bacteria and may be toxic to humans. It has been found to inhibit the enzyme activity of hydroxy methyl glutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase in vitro. This enzyme catalyzes the conversion of HMG CoA to mevalonic acid and plays an important role in cholesterol synthesis. The inhibition of this enzyme by [(1R,4R)-4-Methylcyclohexyl]methanol may lead to a decrease in cholesterol levels in humans.
