2-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-5-methoxy-3-methyl-3a-prop-2-enyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-one - Introduction
burchellin is an organic compound with the chemical formula C16H14O4. It is a yellow to orange crystalline solid, soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane.
burchellin is a compound containing acetic acid group and benzene ring, which has antioxidant and antibacterial effects. It can be used as a preservative in cosmetics, plastics, coatings, fibers and other products to extend its service life and prevent microbial growth and oxidation reactions.
The preparation of burchellin is generally obtained by esterification of hydroquinone with acetoacetic anhydride. During the preparation process, it is necessary to pay attention to safe operation, avoid contact with skin and inhalation of dust, wear protective gloves and masks, and operate in a well-ventilated laboratory environment.
When using burchellin, care should be taken to avoid contact with strong oxidants or strong acids to prevent dangerous chemical reactions. In addition, it needs to be stored in a dry, cool place to avoid mixing with incompatible substances.
It should be noted that burchellin has certain acute toxicity and chronic toxicity, and long-term exposure may have health effects. When using should strictly abide by the relevant safety practices, and maintain good personal hygiene habits. For accidental contact or accidental ingestion, please seek medical attention promptly.
