General Description

1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3-nitrophenyl)propane-1,3-dione, also known as Curcumin, is a natural phenolic compound isolated from the plant Curcuma longa. It is widely used as a food additive and coloring agent due to its bright yellow color. Curcumin also has medicinal properties and is being researched for its potential benefits in treating various health conditions, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Its chemical structure consists of two aromatic rings, one with a methoxy group and the other with a nitro group, attached to a central carbon chain with a carbonyl group at both ends. These functional groups contribute to its biological activities and potential therapeutic effects.
