69618-96-8 - Introduction
Chamaejasmine, also known as chayotox or homotoxin, is a naturally occurring organic compound with the molecular formula C21H24N2O4. It is mainly produced by plants containing chamaejasmin such as the genus chamaejasmin and Citrullus colocynthis.
Chamaejasmine is a potent toxin, neurotoxic and lethal. Its toxicity is mainly due to its strong inhibition of sodium ion channels on the cell membrane. This toxin causes abnormalities in the excitability and conduction of nerve cells, which in turn has effects on the heart and central nervous system.
Due to the toxicity of Chamaejasmine, it has not been widely used in medicine or other aspects. However, some studies have shown that at the appropriate dose, Chamaejasmine may have anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the research and application of Chamaejasmine is still limited due to its toxicity and risk of side effects.
As for the preparation method of Chamaejasmine, it is generally obtained by extracting it from the plants of the genus Wolfram. The extraction process involves processing parts of the plant (e. G., seeds or roots), followed by extraction using a solvent (e. G., ethanol).
It should be noted that Chamaejasmine is a highly toxic compound and should not be directly contacted or ingested. Its toxicity to humans can lead to serious health problems and even death. Therefore, the handling of Chamaejasmine or its associated plants should take strict safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and operation in suitable facilities. In any laboratory studies using or related to Chamaejasmine, relevant safety practices should be followed.
