- Benzenemethanol, .alpha.-methyl-4-nitro-
4-Nitrophenylmethylcarbinol is a nitro compound that has been isolated from the nitration of 4-nitrophenol. It is used as a reagent to synthesize β-unsaturated ketones. The inhibitory effect of 4-nitrophenylmethylcarbinol is due to the presence of two nitro groups and one methyl group on its structure. This compound has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which functions in cellular respiration by catalyzing the conversion of glucose 6-phosphate to glucose 1,6-bisphosphate. The inhibition of this enzyme leads to a reduction in the formation of ATP and NADPH, which are essential for cell growth. 4-Nitrophenylmethylcarbinol also has reductase activities that allow it to reduce phosphotriesters (e.g., DNA) and dehydrogenase deficiency (e.g., py
