Description:

Monobenzone powder, is an organic chemical in the phenol family with chemical formula
C6H5CH2OC6H4OH. It is used as a topical drug for medical depigmentation. It is a colourless
solid that is classified as the monobenzyl ether of hydroquinone. Monobenzone is soluble in
alcohol, benzene, and diethyl ether, and practically insoluble in water.


Function:

The topical application of monobenzone in animals increases the excretion of melanin from
melanocytes. The same action is thought to be responsible for the depigmenting effect of the
drug in humans. Monobenzone may cause destruction of melanocytes and permanent
depigmentation.

The histology of the skin after depigmentation with topical monobenzone is the same as that
seen in vitiligo; the epidermis is normal except for the absence of identifiable melanocytes.
Therefore, monobenzone is used as a topical medicine to permanently depigment normal skin
surrounding vitiliginous lesions only in patients with disseminated (greater than 50 percent of
body surface area) idiopathic vitiligo. Monobenzone is also being considered for the treatment
of Melanoma.

Monobenzone is also used to derive dyes for fiber dyeing and is used in the rubber industry.
