Metabolism / Metabolites
Benzophenone is a known metabolite of cinnarizine in humans. Paraoxygenase (PON1) is a key enzyme in organophosphate metabolism. PON1 can inactivate certain organophosphates through hydrolysis. PON1 hydrolyzes active metabolites in various organophosphate pesticides and nerve agents (such as soman, sarin, and VX). The existence of PON1 polymorphism leads to differences in the enzyme activity level and catalytic efficiency of this esterase, which in turn suggests that different individuals may be more susceptible to the toxic effects of organophosphate exposure. |

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity Summary
Benzophenone is a cholinesterase, or acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. Cholinesterase inhibitors (or "anticholinesterases") inhibit the activity of acetylcholinesterase. Because acetylcholinesterase plays a vital physiological role, chemicals that interfere with its activity are potent neurotoxins; even low doses can cause excessive salivation and lacrimation, followed by muscle spasms and ultimately death. Substances used in nerve gases and many pesticides have been shown to exert their effects by binding to serine residues at the active site of acetylcholinesterase, thus completely inhibiting the enzyme's activity. Acetylcholinesterase breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is released at the neuromuscular junction, causing muscle or organ relaxation. The mechanism of action of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors is to allow acetylcholine to accumulate and exert its sustained effect, ensuring the continuous transmission of nerve impulses and preventing muscle contraction from ceasing. The most common acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are phosphorus-containing compounds designed to bind to the enzyme's active site. Its structural requirements include a phosphorus atom with two lipophilic groups, a leaving group (such as a halogen or thiocyanate group), and a terminal oxygen atom. |
| Additional Infomation |
Benzophenone may be carcinogenic under California labor law. Benzophenone is the simplest member of the benzophenone family; it is a formaldehyde molecule in which two hydrogen atoms are replaced by phenyl groups. It is a photosensitizer and a plant metabolite. Benzophenone is an organic compound. Substituted benzophenones, such as oxybenzone and dioxybenzone, are used in sunscreens. Benzophenone has been reported to be found in soybeans, Streptomyces, and other organisms with relevant data. Benzophenone is found in fruits, such as grapes. Benzophenone is a flavoring agent. Benzophenone is a common photosensitizer in photochemistry. It transitions from the Sn1 state to the triplet state in almost 100% yield. The resulting diradical abstracts a hydrogen atom from a suitable hydrogen donor, forming a keto radical. Benzophenone is an organic compound with the molecular formula (C6H5)2CO, often abbreviated as Ph2CO. Benzophenone is a widely used structural unit in organic chemistry, its parent compound being a diaryl ketone. Benzophenone has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects. Benzophenone belongs to the benzophenone class of compounds. These organic compounds consist of one ketone group linked to two phenyl groups (A3203). Benzophenone is a metabolite found or produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. See also: ADP-D-glycerol-β-D-mannohepose (note moved to...).

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.72 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
