TETRAHYDRO-PENTAMETHYL-2-NAPHTHALENECARBALDEHYDE.

Insufficient Data CAS 113221-73-1 / PERFUMING

TETRAHYDRO-PENTAMETHYL-2-NAPHTHALENECARBALDEHYDE is an aromatic aldehyde primarily employed as a fragrance component in a diverse range of cosmetic and personal care products. Early laboratory investigations indicate potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, though its direct efficacy and precise application in skin remain to be clinically validated.

Summary

Fragrance Antioxidant (in vitro) Anti-inflammatory (in vitro)

Science

Mechanism of Action

This compound exhibits antioxidant activity by effectively scavenging free radicals and mitigating oxidative stress within cells. Research suggests it can modulate inflammatory pathways by reducing specific markers in cell cultures exposed to pro-inflammatory stimuli. Furthermore, it may influence metabolic and cell signaling pathways through enzyme inhibition or receptor modulation.
