Description

Marmesin CAS NO 13849-08-6 is a naturally occurring coumarin derivative, a key intermediate and reference standard in phytochemical and pharmaceutical research. This compound is valued for its role in the biosynthesis of other important coumarins and its potential biological activities. It is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and botanical extract industries for development and quality control applications.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity analytical standard for the identification and quantification of marmesin and related compounds in herbal medicines and complex matrices.
• Biosynthetic Intermediate: Serves as a crucial precursor in the study and synthesis of other pharmacologically active coumarins, such as psoralens.
• Natural Product Research: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for investigating the biological activities, including potential anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, or neuroprotective effects.
• Quality Control for Botanicals: Essential for the standardization and authentication of plant extracts containing marmesin, ensuring product consistency and efficacy.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a building block for the semi-synthesis of novel derivatives for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
