Description

1-[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]-2-bromopropan-1-one is an estrogenic compound. It is a reactive substance that can be synthesized by reductive amination of hydroxybenzaldehyde with benzyl bromide. 1-[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]-2-bromopropan-1-one has been shown to be metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P450 enzymes to form the corresponding alcohol and carboxylic acid. It binds to estrogen receptors, which may be due to its ability to bind to DNA. The binding of this substance to estrogen receptors may induce transcriptional activation and increase protein synthesis in cells.
