Description

Methyl Oleanolate CAS NO 1724-17-0 is a high-purity methyl ester derivative of oleanolic acid, a key pentacyclic triterpenoid. This compound serves as a critical intermediate and reference standard in advanced pharmaceutical and nutraceutical research and development. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and specialty chemical producers focused on anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and anticancer agent discovery.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block for the semi-synthesis of novel triterpenoid-based drugs targeting inflammation and metabolic disorders.
• Reference Standard: Used in analytical laboratories for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of oleanane-type triterpenoids via HPLC, LC-MS, or GC-MS.
• Nutraceutical Research: Employed in the development and standardization of herbal extracts and dietary supplements for enhanced bioavailability studies.
• Biochemical Research: A vital tool for investigating biological pathways, enzyme inhibition, and receptor binding activities associated with triterpenoids.
• Cosmeceutical Ingredient: Explored for use in high-end skincare formulations for its potential anti-aging and skin-soothing properties.
• Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a versatile starting material for further chemical modifications to create novel analogs with tailored biological activities.
