Phenylpropanoids, Aromatic Polyketides — a collection of plant secondary metabolites from the phenylpropanoid and aromatic polyketide groups, such as cinnamate derivatives, coumarins, curcuminoids, and lignin, formed through the phenylpropanoid and polyketide biosynthesis pathways. These aromatic compounds are widely found in plants as pigments, structural components, or defense metabolites.
These phenylpropanoid and aromatic polyketide compounds are used by natural product chemistry researchers to study plant secondary metabolite biosynthesis, analyze phenolic content in herbal extracts, and as reference compounds in chromatography and spectroscopy methods. Compounds such as curcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin are used as model experiments in analytical chemistry research, while coumarin derivatives and caffeic acid support antioxidant activity research based on in vitro assays.
Example products in this collection: TCI L0082 8061-51-6 Lignin (Alkaline), TCI B6443 113558-15-9 Baohuoside I, TCI C2302 458-37-7 Curcumin (Synthetic), TCI B6548 33171-05-0 Bisdemethoxycurcumin, TCI I0815 71617-10-2 Isoamyl 4-Methoxycinnamate, TCI B6613 19063-55-9 6-Bromo-2H-chromen-2-one, TCI I0822 961-29-5 Isoliquiritigenin, TCI C0002 331-39-5 Caffeic Acid.
When selecting reference compounds, consider analytical purity, isomer form (synthetic or natural), and stability against light and oxidation during storage for quantitative analysis purposes. All products are genuine products of Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
