Adrenochrome
Adrenochrome, also known as adraxone, is a stable oxidation product formed after oxidation of adrenaline. Adrenochrome strongly stimulates oxygen uptake occurring during the autoxidation of adrenaline, other catecholamines and ascorbate. The reduction of adrenochrome operated by adrenaline is accelerated by the exclusion of oxygen indicating that the oxidation of adrenaline occurs directly and superoxide anion does not necessarily mediate it. Adrenochrome was the subject of limited research from the 1950s through to the 1970s as a potential cause of schizophrenia. While it has no current medical application, the related derivative compound, carbazochrome, is a hemostatic medication.
