Metabolite Identification
Common NameDihydroartemisinin (DHA)
DescriptionDihydroartemisinin (DHA), also known as salaxin or dihydroqinghaosu, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as artemisinins. These are sesquiterpenoids originally isolated from the herb Artemisia annua. Their structure is based on artemisinin, a tetracyclic compound that contains a 1,2-dioxepane fused to an octahydrobenzopyran moiety. The internal peroxide bridge is believed to be a key to the mode of action of artemisinins. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Dihydroartemisinin (DHA).
