CAS 298-81-7: 8-Methoxypsoralen

Description: 8-Methoxypsoralen, also known as 8-MOP, is a naturally occurring compound belonging to the class of furanocoumarins. It is primarily derived from the seeds of the plant Psoralea corylifolia. This substance is characterized by its ability to absorb ultraviolet (UV) light, which makes it useful in photochemotherapy, particularly for treating skin conditions such as psoriasis and vitiligo. 8-Methoxypsoralen acts as a photosensitizer, enhancing the effects of UVA radiation on affected skin. Chemically, it features a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the 8-position of the psoralen structure, contributing to its biological activity. The compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, but has limited solubility in water. Due to its photosensitizing properties, caution is advised when handling 8-Methoxypsoralen, as it can increase the risk of skin reactions upon exposure to sunlight. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential effects on DNA and cellular processes, highlighting its significance in both therapeutic and research contexts.
