102-61-4

ChEBI: Pinosylvin is a stilbenol.

This trans-stilbene derivative (FW = 212.25 g/mol; CAS 102-61-4; M.P. = 155.5-156°C; low solubility in water), also known as (E) -3,5-stilbenediol and trans-3,5-dihydroxystilbene and named systematically as 5-[ (E) -2- phenylethenyl]benzene-1,3-diol, occurs naturally in the hardwood of pine and other woody plants. Pinosylvin exxhibits micromolar Ki values for specific isozymes of stilbene synthase and chalcone synthase. Target (s) : chalcone synthase; stilbene synthase; tyrosinase, or monophenol monooxygenase.
