Description
Tetrahydroxyquinone is a molecule best known as a primitive anticataract drug, is also a highly redox active molecule that can take part in a redox cycle with semiquinone radicals, leading to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Tetrahydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone is a hydroxybenzoquinone in which all four protons of the benzoquinone structure are substituted by hydroxy groups. A systemic keratolytic, it is normally supplied as its hydrate (CHEBI:137471). It has a role as a keratolytic drug.
