Description

3,5-Dimethoxyphenol is a phenol derivative, naturally occuring in plants, that has been used to study iron porphyrin phenoxides. The presence of 3,5-dimethoxyphenol in urine samples can be a diagnostic indicator of yew (Taxus baccata) poisoning. The exact mechanism of action is not entirely elucidated, studies have postulated that 3,5-dimethoxyphenol might work by inhibiting specific enzymes such as cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, which play roles in generating inflammatory mediators. This compound can be used as a reference compound for analytical studies.
