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).

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.
