Uses

Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
METHYL ORSELLINATE is used as a synthetic intermediate for the production of Grifolic Acid (G786500), a selective partial GPR120 agonist. METHYL ORSELLINATE plays a crucial role in the development of drugs targeting specific receptors, which can be beneficial for treating various medical conditions.
Grifolic Acid, synthesized using METHYL ORSELLINATE, is known to induce ERK and [Ca2+]i responses in cells expressing GPR120. It does not have any effects on cells expressing GPR40, making it a selective agonist with potential therapeutic applications.

CANNABIDIOL-TYPE CANNABINOID COMPOUND

The present invention relates to a cannabidiol (CBD) type cannabinoid compound for use as a medicament. The CBD-type cannabinoid, cannabidiol-C1 (CBD-C1), is a naturally occurring cannabinoid that can be found in minor quantities in the cannabis plant. Furthermore, the 5 cannabinoid can be produced by synthetic means and a method for the production of CBD-C1 is described herein. In addition, disclosed herein are data which demonstrate the efficacy of CBD-C1 in models of disease.

Photolytic Studies on the Generation and Trapping of 6-Oxomethylidenecyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one Derivatives with Various Nucleophiles

α-Oxoketenes and cyclohexadiene α-oxoketenes are reactive intermediates, particularly the latter due to their high re-aromatization potential. In this communication, we report photolytic studies on the generation of such species from 4-OMe and 4-OMOM protected resorcylate dioxinones and their trapping to give resorcylate esters and amides as well as the formation of adducts with enol-ethers as trapping reagents.

Biomimetic synthesis and anti-inflammatory evaluation of violacin A analogues

Violacin A, a chromanone derivative, isolated from a fermentation broth of Streptomyces violaceoruber, has excellent anti-inflammatory potential. Herein, a biogenetically modeled approach to synthesize violacin A and twenty-five analogues was described, which involved the preparation of aromatic polyketide precursor through Claisen condensation and its spontaneous cyclization. The inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (NO) production of all synthetic molecules was evaluated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced Raw264.7 cells. The results revealed that introduction of aliphatic amine moieties on C-7 obviously improved the anti-inflammation effect of violacin A, and also the aromatic ether instead of ketone group at side chain was favorable to increase the activity. Among them, analogue 7a and 16d were screened as the most effective anti-inflammatory candidates. Molecular mechanism research revealed that 7a and 16d acquired anti-inflammatory ability due to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway.

Inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase activity by orsellinates

Several applications have been proposed for tyrosinase inhibitors in the pharmaceutical, food bioprocessing, and environmental industries. However, only a few compounds are known to serve as effective tyrosinase inhibitors. This study evaluated the tyrosinase-related activity of resorcinol (1), orcinol (2) lecanoric acid (3), and derivatives of this acid (4-15). Subjected to alcoholysis, lecanoric acid (3), a depside isolated from the lichen Parmotrema tinctorum, produces orsellinic acid (2,4-dihydroxy-6-methylbenzoic acid) (4) and orsellinates (2,4-dihydroxy-6-methyl benzoates) (5-15). At 0.50 mM, methyl (5), ethyl (6), n-propyl (7), tert-butyl (11), and n-cetyl orsellinates (15) acted as tyrosinase activators, whereas n-butyl (8), iso-propyl (9), sec-butyl (10), n-pentyl (12), n-hexyl (13), and n-octyl orsellinates (14) behaved as inhibitors. Tyrosinase inhibition rose with chain elongation-n-butyl (8) n-pentyl (12) n-hexyl (13) n-octyl orsellinates (14)-suggesting that the enzyme site can accept an eight-carbon alkyl chain. A kinetic study of n-octyl orsellinate (14) revealed uncompetitive inhibition of tyrosinase, with an inhibition constant of 0.99 mM.
