Many diesters of adrenalone have high ocular sympathomimetic activity although adrenalone itself, even if delivered intraocularly, is practically inactive. Thus these diesters cannot be considered pro-drugs of adrenalone, since adrenalone is not a drug. The mechanism of action of these

The ESR-spin stabilization approach has been employed to detect and characterize o-semiquinone radicals from the oxidation of epinephrine and related materials (norepinephrine, 3,4-dihydroxynorephedrine, isoproterenol, and adrenalone) in aqueous solutions. Semiquinones were generated by various oxidative procedures--enzymatic oxidation (with horseradish peroxidase/H2O2)
Experiments are carried out on 3400 mice, irradiated in dose 8 Gy (LD97/30). beta-Ketoanalogs of adrenaline (adrenalone, 50-150 mumol/kg), m,p-dipivaloyladrenaline (20 mumol/kg) and phenylephrine (but at 2070 mumol/kg) have the high radioprotective effect (survival is 60-100%), beta-ketoanalogs of isoprenaline and
