General description

Dihydrocoumarin is commonly used as a flavor ingredient in food and cosmetic industry. It occurs naturally in Melilotus officinalis (sweet clover).

Application


  • Novel Dihydrocoumarins Induced by Radiolysis as Potent Tyrosinase Inhibitors.: This research identifies new dihydrocoumarins produced through radiolysis, demonstrating their potential as effective tyrosinase inhibitors, which could have significant applications in dermatology and related fields (Jeong et al., 2024). (Jeong et al., 2024).

Sirtuins are a family of phylogenetically conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylases that have a firmly established role in aging. Using a simple Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast heterochromatic derepression assay, we tested a number of environmental chemicals to address the possibility that

A series of new 3-methylidenechroman-2-ones bearing various aromatic moieties and various substituents at position 4 were synthesized in a three step reaction sequence. Friedel-Crafts alkylation of phenols or naphthols using ethyl 3-methoxy-2-diethoxyphosphorylacrylate in the presence of trifluoromethanesulphonic acid gave 3-diethoxyphosphorylchromen-2-ones.

Further confirmation of the effects of vehicles and elicitation concentration in experimental contact sensitization testing with fragrance ingredients is reported. A dose-response relation was seen when sensitized human subjects were challenged with dihydrocoumarin, alantroot oil and diethylmalleate. Furthermore, alcohol was
