The Oxford English Dictionary has: Adrenochrome, a sulphur compound of the suprarenal gland for the internal treatment of skin diseases.(quoted from a medical dictionary of 1913). The OED's own definition is 'a red oxidation product of adrenalin'. So strictly speaking, the answer to your question is 'No, I've no idea what it is, but I can give you a definition'. Good old Oxford!
