4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate

4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate (4-Methylphenyl ITC) is an antioxidant, with a IC50 value of 1.25 mM for scavenging DPPH radicals. ORAC testing indicates its antioxidant capacity as 11.7 mM TE (indicating that the antioxidant efficacy of this compound is equivalent to 11.7 mmol of Trolox (HY-101445, a standard antioxidant) under the same conditions), and it extends the oxidation process by approximately 9180 seconds in the Briggs–Rauscher reaction. Additionally, 4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate exhibits moderate cholinesterase inhibitory activity, with an inhibition rate of 30.4% against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and 17.9% against butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) . 4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate holds potential for research in the fields of antioxidation and neurological disorders[1].
