4-Methylcatechol is an intermediate in the degradation of certain alkylbenzenes and an orally active suicide inhibitor of catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C230). It induces apoptosis in melanoma cells through oxidative stress, and some studies suggest it may be carcinogenic. This compound exhibits antiplatelet and blood pressure-lowering activities, and can inhibit protein oxidation in beef.
