3-O-Methyltolcapone-d7（Cat No.:S000377） is a deuterated form of 3-O-Methyltolcapone, where seven hydrogen atoms have been replaced with deuterium. This molecule is a metabolite of tolcapone, a drug used to manage symptoms of Parkinson’s disease by inhibiting catechol-O-methyltransferase, thus enhancing the effectiveness of levodopa. The deuteration helps in pharmacokinetic studies, allowing researchers to trace and understand the metabolic fate of tolcapone in the body more clearly.
