Isomyristicin

Description:

Isomyristicin is a naturally occurring compound classified as a methoxyphenylpropene, primarily found in certain essential oils, particularly those derived from nutmeg and other spices. It is structurally related to myristicin, differing mainly in the arrangement of its methoxy and propene groups. Isomyristicin exhibits a range of biological activities, including potential antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, which have garnered interest in both food science and pharmacology. The compound is characterized by its aromatic properties, contributing to the flavor and fragrance profiles of the plants in which it is found. In terms of safety, while isomyristicin is generally recognized as safe in food applications, excessive consumption of nutmeg and its derivatives can lead to toxicity due to other components. Its chemical structure allows for various interactions in biological systems, making it a subject of research in the context of natural products and their therapeutic potentials. Overall, isomyristicin represents a fascinating example of the complex chemistry found in natural substances.

trans-Isomyristicin

Controlled Product

CAS: 18312-21-5

Trans-isomyristicin is a natural product that has been isolated from the roots of Astragalus plants. It can be prepared by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and has been shown to have antimicrobial activity. Trans-isomyristicin is also able to inhibit the growth of fungi, such as Aspergillus niger, and reduce lipid peroxidation in rat liver cells. Trans-isomyristicin has pharmacokinetic properties that are similar to myristicin, which is found in nutmeg. The structural analysis of trans-isomyristicin suggests that it is a metabolite of myristicin and may cause some forms of metabolic disorders.
