Maltol

3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone; 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-pyran-4-one; Maltol; Deferiprone Impurity B

Maltol, also known as E636 or fema 2656, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyranones and derivatives. Pyranones and derivatives are compounds containing a pyran ring which bears a ketone. Some synthetic derivatives of maltol, developed at the University of Urbino, showed limited in vitro antiproliferative activity towards cancer cells lines, perhaps inducing apoptosis in these cells. Maltol is a sweet, baked, and bread tasting compound. Maltol has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as milk and milk products, nuts, soy beans, pepper (c. annuum), and coffee and coffee products. Maltols sweetness adds to the odor of freshly baked bread, and is used as a flavor enhancer (INS Number 636) in breads and cakes. Related to this property, maltol has been reported to greatly increase aluminum uptake in the body and to increase the oral bioavailability of gallium and iron. Maltol is a naturally occurring organic compound that is used primarily as a flavor enhancer. It is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in hot water, chloroform, and other polar solvents. Maltol is registered as a flavor component in the EU. Maltol, like related 3-hydroxy-4-pyrones such as kojic acid, binds to hard metal centers such as Fe3+, Ga3+, Al3+, and VO2+. It is known in the European E number food additive series as E636. Because it has the odor of cotton candy and caramel, maltol is used to impart a sweet aroma to fragrances. Maltol is a white crystalline powder with a fragrant caramel-butterscotch odor. pH (5\\\\% aqueous solution) 5.3. (NTP, 1992) 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone is a member of 4-pyranones. It has a role as a metabolite. Maltol is a natural product found in Cercidiphyllum japonicum, Coffea arabica, and other organisms with data available. 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone is a metabolite found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Found in chicory, roasted malt, breads, milk, heated butter, uncured smoked pork, cocoa, coffee, roasted barley, roasted peanuts, roasted filbert, soybean etc. Flavour enhancer and flavouring agent C1907 - Drug, Natural Product > C28269 - Phytochemical Maltol, a type of aromatic compound, exists in high concentrations in red ginseng.

Isosorbide Mononitrate

(3R,3aS,6S,6aR)-6-hydroxy-hexahydrofuro[3,2-b]furan-3-yl nitrate

C6H9NO6 (191.043)

Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN), sold under the names Imdur and Monoket, among others, is an organic nitrate used principally in the prophylactic treatment of angina pectoris (ischemic chest pain). ISMN is an active metabolite of isosorbide dinitrate and exerts qualitatively similar effects. Like other organic nitrates, ISMN acts as a prodrug for its active metabolite, nitric oxide, which mediates the therapeutic action of ISMN. Nitric oxide works on both arteries and veins, but predominantly veins. Nitric oxide functions by relaxing veins and reducing the central venous pressure, thereby causing venous pooling and a decrease in the venous return to the heart, thus decreasing cardiac preload (PMID: 31643263). The net effect when administering ISMN is therefore a reduced workload for the heart and an improvement in the oxygen supply/demand balance of the myocardium. ISMN is not subject to first pass metabolism in the human liver. Detectable metabolites include isosorbide, sorbitol, and 2-glucuronide of mononitrate, which are pharmacologically inactive (PMID: 1449102). Research on ISMN as a cervical ripener to reduce time at hospital to birth is supportive (PMID: 23983763). Isosorbide mononitrate is only found in individuals who have consumed or used this drug.
