4-Phenanthrenol is a phenanthrene derivative found in many plants and fungi. It has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antioxidant, and antineoplastic activities. It inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi by disrupting their cell walls and membranes. It is also interferes with the metabolism of bacteria and fungi, resulting in the inhibition of their growth. 4-Phenanthrenol has been employed in diverse scientific research, including studying antibiotic mechanisms, developing new antifungal agents, examining the biochemical and physiological effects of various compounds, and investigating enzyme structure and function.
