Catechol, also known as pyrocatechol or 1,2-dihydroxybenzene, is a toxic organic compound with the molecular formula C₆H₄(OH)₂. It is the ortho isomer of the three isomeric benzenediols. This colorless compound occurs naturally in trace amounts.
Approximately 50% of the synthetic catechol is consumed in the production of pesticides, the remainder being used as a precursor to fine chemicals such as perfumes and pharmaceuticals. It is a common building block in organic synthesis.
Dosage
Catechol is present in small quantities in the vacuoles of cells of many plant tissues. Catechol oxidase is present in the cell cytoplasm. If the plant tissues are damaged, the catechol is released and the enzyme converts the catechol to ortho-quinone, which is a natural antiseptic.
