(2E)-3-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid

Description:

(2E)-3-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid, also known as a derivative of cinnamic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its propenoic acid structure with a substituted aromatic ring. The presence of two methoxy groups on the phenyl ring enhances its lipophilicity and may influence its biological activity. This compound typically exhibits properties such as being a solid at room temperature, with potential applications in pharmaceuticals and as a building block in organic synthesis. Its structure allows for potential interactions with biological targets, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. The compound may also display antioxidant properties, which are common in similar aromatic compounds. Additionally, its reactivity can be attributed to the conjugated double bond in the propenoic acid moiety, allowing for various chemical transformations. As with many organic compounds, safety and handling precautions should be observed, as it may pose risks if ingested or improperly handled.

2,4-Dimethoxycinnamic acid

CAS: 16909-09-4

2,4-Dimethoxycinnamic acid is a bile acid found in human bile. It is the product of 4-methoxycinnamic acid and hmg-coa reductase. 2,4-Dimethoxycinnamic acid has been shown to be effective in the treatment of cholesterol gallstones, which are caused by increased levels of biliary cholesterol. The inhibition of cholesterol synthesis by statins may contribute to the hypocholesterolemic effects that have been observed with 2,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid. In addition, 2,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties and inhibit platelet aggregation.
