Application
- Pyrocatechol alleviates cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury by inhibiting ROS production: Research on pyrocatechol′s protective effects against nephrotoxicity due to cisplatin, highlighting its antioxidant properties (Xie et al., 2022).
- How was the proton transfer process in bis-3, 6-(2-benzoxazolyl)-pyrocatechol, single or double proton transfer: Theoretical insights into the proton transfer mechanisms in a symmetric pyrocatechol derivative, providing fundamental knowledge for molecular interactions (Zhang et al., 2016).
- Electrodeposition of pyrocatechol based films: Influence of potential scan rate, pyrocatechol concentration and pH: Investigates the conditions affecting the electrodeposition of pyrocatechol-based materials, contributing to the understanding of electrochemical coating processes (Ball, 2017).
