5,7-Dimethoxycoumarin Chemical Properties, Uses, Production

Chemical Properties

White crystalline powder, soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO, derived from Buddha's hand.

Uses

photosensitizing agent

Uses

5,7-Dimethoxycoumarin is a derivitized coumarin compound.

Definition

ChEBI: 5,7-dimethoxy-1-benzopyran-2-one is a member of coumarins.

Synthesis Reference(s)

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 118, p. 6305, 1996 DOI: 10.1021/ja961107i

General Description

5,7-dimethoxycoumarin is isolated and identified from leaves and fruits of Pelea anisata H. Mann, a plant whose fruit are used in the construction of mohikana leis. It induces frameshift mutagenesis in bacteria. It also causes lethal photosensitization and the formation of sister chromatid exchanges in Chinese hamster cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5,7-Dimethoxycoumarin induces the processes of differentiation and melanogenesis in murine (B16) and human (A375).
