Descrizione

Methyl 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate is an acetate extract that has been shown to inhibit tyrosinase activity. This compound also has a potent inhibitory effect on the production of p-hydroxybenzoic acid. Methyl 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate can be synthesized from protocatechuic acid and methoxy groups. It is a chemical reaction involving three steps: condensation, dehydration, and reduction. Tyrosinase is an enzyme in the melanin biosynthetic pathway that catalyzes the conversion of tyrosine to dopaquinone. Tyrosinase activity can be inhibited by methyl 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate through competitive inhibition or by its ability to reduce the availability of substrate for this enzyme.
