  <description>Nitisinone is an organic compound with the chemical formula C14H10F3NO5 and an average molecular weight of 329.23 g/mol. Nitisinone belongs to the carbonyl compounds, a subclass of organooxygen compounds within the organic compounds.

The compound is recorded as being found in or released from six different sources. These include healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products, specifically alimentary tract and metabolism products, as well as household cleaning and consumer products such as non electric simulated smoking devices. Additionally, it is associated with electrical and electronic equipment, including amplifiers, colour television systems, television systems, and superconducting magnets and superconducting coils. The recorded route of exposure for this substance is oral. In terms of biological activity, nitisinone acts as an inhibitor of the protein target 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPD).</description>
