Description

Indan is a molecule with the chemical formula C9H8O2. Indan has been shown to have pain-relieving properties in animal models and is thought to act through its interaction with dopamine receptors. The mechanism of action of indan is not well understood, but it may involve transport properties or the activation of inflammatory cells. Indan has been shown to have biological properties against certain types of inflammation and pain. This molecule has also been shown to be an effective analgesic in animal tests, which was confirmed by linear regression analysis. Indan has been found to have a hydrogen bond between the methyl group and the oxygen atom on carbonyl carbon, which may explain its reactivity. Indan can be synthesized using hydroxypropyl methyl ether (HPME) as a solvent and methyl ketones as starting materials.
