Naturally derived from the naphthyl group, (R)-(−)-1-(1-Naphthyl)ethyl isothiocyanate is an isothiocyanate that exhibits various beneficial properties. It acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), an enzyme involved in the production of pro-inflammatory molecules like prostaglandins. Moreover, this compound inhibits the activity of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), another enzyme responsible for the production of leukotrienes, which are known to cause inflammation and cellular damage. Consequently, (R)-(−)-1-(1-Naphthyl)ethyl isothiocyanate displays anti-inflammatory properties while also safeguarding cells from harm by acting as an antioxidant and combating free radicals.
