CAS 484-20-8: Bergapten

Description:Bergapten, also known as 5-methoxypsoralen, is a naturally occurring compound classified as a furanocoumarin. It is primarily found in various plants, particularly in the citrus family, and is known for its role in plant defense mechanisms. Chemically, bergapten has a molecular formula of C12H10O3 and features a methoxy group and a furan ring, contributing to its unique properties. This compound exhibits photosensitizing activity, meaning it can absorb ultraviolet light and subsequently induce biological effects, which has implications in both therapeutic and phototoxic contexts. Bergapten is often studied for its potential use in treating skin disorders, such as psoriasis and vitiligo, as it can enhance the effects of ultraviolet light therapy. However, its photosensitizing properties also raise concerns regarding skin sensitivity and potential carcinogenic effects upon excessive exposure. In terms of solubility, bergapten is relatively soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Overall, bergapten is a compound of interest in both pharmacology and natural product chemistry due to its diverse biological activities.
