Today I want to share an article with you. The article is 《Synthesis of barbacic acid》,you can find this article in 《Journal of Asian Natural Products Research》. The following contents are mentioned:
A new approach for the synthesis of the active barbatic acid has been achieved in eight steps with 22.3% total yield by using com. available Me atratate as starting material. This synthesis provides access to multi-gram quantities of barbatic acid with good purity for reference supplies and further anal. and toxicol. investigations. To complete the study, the researchers used Methyl 2,4-dihydroxy-3,6-dimethylbenzoate (cas: 4707-47-5) .
Methyl 2,4-dihydroxy-3,6-dimethylbenzoate(4707-47-5) is used in biological study as role of androgens in inducing distinct response of epithelial-mesenchymal transition factors in human prostate cancer cells.Safety of Methyl 2,4-dihydroxy-3,6-dimethylbenzoate
