Applications
UsesHomovanillyl alcohol is a biological metabolite of Hydroxytyrosol. Hydroxytyrosol is a phenolic compound that is present in virgin olive oil (VOO) and wine. Homovanillyl alcohol protects red blood cells (RBCs) from oxidative injury and has protective effect on cardiovascular disease. It was used in the preparation of galactosides.
General DescriptionHomovanillyl alcohol is a key component of Queen mandibular pheromone.
