Anthraquinone is a chemical compound that functions as a redox catalyst in various chemical reactions. It acts as a mediator in the transfer of electrons between different substrates, facilitating the oxidation or reduction of organic compounds. Anthraquinone participates in electron transfer processes by accepting or donating electrons, thereby promoting the conversion of reactants into products. Anthraquinone′s mode of action involves its ability to undergo reversible redox reactions, enabling it to shuttle electrons between different species. Through its redox activity, anthraquinone plays a functional role in promoting the efficiency of various chemical transformations by facilitating electron transfer processes.
