Common Namestyrene oxide
Descriptionstyrene oxide is also known as epoxystyrene or 1-phenyloxirane. styrene oxide is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on styrene oxide.
