5,5-Dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide is a cell permeable hydrophillic spin trap agent for superoxide detection.

Applications
5,5-Dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide is a reagent generally used either as a free-radical spin-trapping agent, or electrophilic component during the

synthesis of pyrrolidine derivatives. It may also be considered as 1,3-dipole in cycloaddition processes.
Neuroprotective agent; nitric oxide spin trap. Used to study radicals formed by enzymatic acetaldehyde oxidation.
Neuroprotective agent; nitric oxide spin trap. Used to study radicals formed by enzymatic acetaldehyde oxidation. Incubation of lymphocytes with

DMPO decreased DNA damage by NiCl2.
