Methylcinnamic Acid C10h10o2 White Crystal - China

Solvent: Chloroform, Dichloromethane, Ethyl Acetate, DMSO, Acetone, etc.

Description: 5-Methoxycinnamic acid is a photosensitive compound, also known as para-methoxycinnamate or O-methyl-p-coumarate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cinnamic acids.

These are organic aromatic compounds containing a benzene and a carboxylic acid group forming 3-phenylprop-2-enoic acid.

4-Methoxycinnamic acid exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral.

4-Methoxycinnamic acid has been detected in multiple biofluids, such as urine and blood.

Within the cell, 4-methoxycinnamic acid is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP).

Outside of the human body, 4-methoxycinnamic acid can be found in turmeric and wild celery.

This makes 4-methoxycinnamic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.

Main Applications: 1 - methyl cinnamic acid is mainly used as an important intermediate in organic synthesis.

2 - p-MCA exerted antihyperglycemic/hypogly cemic effect by stimulating insulin secretion from pancreas and could be developed into a new potential for therapeutic agent used in type 2 diabetic patients.

3 - methyl cinnamic acid shows various pharmacologic actions such as hepatoprotective and antihyperglycemic activities, it also can stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells by increasing Ca2+ influx via the L-type Ca2+ channels, but not through the closure of ATP-sensitive K+ channels.

4 - 4-Methoxycinnamic acid can strongly inhibit the diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase, with the IC 50 value of 0.42 mM, and the inhibition is reversible.
