Application

5,5-Dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide is a reagent generally used either as a free-radical spin-trapping agent, or electrophilic component during the synthesis of pyrrolidine derivatives. It may also be considered as 1,3-dipole in cycloaddition processes.
Neuroprotective agent; nitric oxide spin trap. Used to study radicals formed by enzymatic acetaldehyde oxidation.
Neuroprotective agent; nitric oxide spin trap. Used to study radicals formed by enzymatic acetaldehyde oxidation. Incubation of lymphocytes with DMPO decreased DNA damage by NiCl2.

Packaging

Free radicals are conventionally detected by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy after being trapped as spin adducts. Albeit this technique has demonstrated utmost efficacy in studying free radicals, its application to biological settings is intrinsically hampered by the inevitable bioreduction
