Pteryxin

2-Butenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 9-(acetyloxy)-9,10-dihydro-8,8-dimethyl-2-oxo-2H,8H-benzo(1,2-b:3- ,4-b)dipyran-10-yl ester, (9R-(9alpha,10alpha(Z)))-

C21H22O7 (386.1365)


Pteryxin is a member of coumarins. Pteryxin is a natural product found in Musineon divaricatum, Pteryxia terebinthina, and other organisms with data available. Origin: Plant, Coumarins Pteryxin, a coumarin in Peucedanum japonicum Thunb leaves, exerts antiobesity activity[1]. Pteryxin is a potent butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitor, with an IC50 of 12.96 μg/ml[2]. Pteryxin, a coumarin in Peucedanum japonicum Thunb leaves, exerts antiobesity activity[1].

Styrene Oxide

Styrene oxide, (+-)-isomer

C8H8O (120.0575)


Styrene Oxide, also known as Epoxystyrene or Phenyloxirane, is classified as a benzene or a Benzene derivative. Benzenes are aromatic compounds containing one monocyclic ring system consisting of benzene. Styrene Oxide is considered to be slightly soluble (in water) and basic D009676 - Noxae > D002273 - Carcinogens D009676 - Noxae > D009153 - Mutagens

   

Peucedanin

6-Hydroxy-2-isopropyl-3-methoxy-5-benzofuranacrylic acid delta-lactone

C15H14O4 (258.0892)


Peucedanin, also known as 2-isopropyl-3-methoxy-7h-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one or 4-methoxy-5-isopropylfuro(2,3:6,7)coumarin, is a member of the class of compounds known as psoralens. Psoralens are organic compounds containing a psoralen moiety, which consists of a furan fused to a chromenone to for 7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one. Peucedanin is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Peucedanin can be found in carrot, chervil, and wild carrot, which makes peucedanin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
