Description

(11R)-11,20-Epoxy-1β,2α,11,12α-Tetrahydroxypicrasane-16-One is a highly oxidized and functionalized picrasane-type quassinoid, a class of compounds known for their complex structures and significant bioactivity. This specific stereoisomer is of considerable interest for advanced research and development in pharmacology and natural product chemistry due to its unique epoxy and polyhydroxylated framework. It serves as a critical reference standard and a potential synthetic intermediate for researchers in pharmaceutical discovery, agrochemical development, and academic institutions studying terpenoid biosynthesis and bioactivity.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for quality control, method validation, and analytical testing in drug development pipelines.
• Bioactive Compound Research: Serves as a lead compound or probe in pharmacological studies targeting various biological pathways, leveraging the known activity of quassinoids.
• Natural Product Synthesis: Acts as a key chiral intermediate or target molecule in the total synthesis and semi-synthesis of complex terpenoids and related natural products.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Utilized in universities and research institutes for structural elucidation, spectroscopic studies, and investigating structure-activity relationships (SAR).
• Agrochemical Research: Explored for potential bioactivity in the development of new plant protection agents or growth regulators, given the historical use of quassinoids.
