Description

4-Phenyl-1-cyclohexene is a monomer that belongs to the group of chemical substances. It has been shown to be an analog for the natural substrate for fatty acid synthase, acetyl-CoA. 4-Phenyl-1-cyclohexene also inhibits the oxidation of fatty acids and can cause a decrease in airflow. This substance is found in high concentrations in the body fat of Swiss Webster mice and may have health effects on these animals. 4-Phenyl-1-cyclohexene is metabolized by cleavage into two products: phenylacetaldehyde and cyclohexanone. The presence of this substance in urine can be used as an indicator for exposure to benzene, which is a known carcinogen. Symptoms of overexposure to 4-phenyl-1-cyclohexene include nausea, dizziness, headache, fatigue, and drowsiness.
