Humulone

(6S)-3,5,6-Trihydroxy-4,6-bis(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-2-(3-methyl-1-oxobutyl)-2,4-cyclohexadien-1-one

C21H30O5 (362.2093)


An optically active cyclic ketone consisting of 3,5,6-trihydroxycyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-one bearing two 3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl substituents at positions 4 and 6 as well as a 3-methylbutanoyl group at the 2-position. Humulone is a natural product found in Humulus lupulus with data available. Humulone (α-Lupulic acid), a prenylated phloroglucinol derivative, is a potent cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor. Humulone acts as a positive modulator of GABAA receptor at low micromolar concentrations. Humulone is an inhibitor of bone resorption. Humulone possesses antioxidant, anti-angiogenic and apoptosis-inducing properties[1][2][3].
