Kojic acid and its derivatives: history and present state of art.

چکیده
Kojic acid (5-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-4-pyranone) represents an attractive polyfunctional skeleton for development of biologically active compounds. The authors prepared a great variety of kojic acid derivatives and selected biological properties have been studied. Thus, kojic acid derivatives are promising compounds that might advantageously be used in human and/or veterinary medicine and also in preparation of new, even more biologically active preparations.

Nano silica sulfuric acid catalyzed synthesis of 2-substituted aryl (indolyl) kojic acid derivatives
Nano silica sulfuric acid as a solid acid, was described to be an effective catalyst for one-pot three-component reaction of kojic acid, aryl aldehydes and indoles for the preparation of 2-substituted aryl (indolyl) kojic acid derivatives. The catalyst was prepared by combination of chlorosulfonic acid to nano silica gel. The size of nanoparticles were observed with SEM.All prepared compounds w...

متن کاملIn vitro and in silico studies of the inhibitory effects of some novel kojic acid derivatives on tyrosinase enzyme
Objective(s): Tyrosinase is a key enzyme in pigment synthesis. Overproduction of melanin in parts of the skin results in hyperpigmentation diseases. This enzyme is also responsible for the enzymatic browning in fruits and vegetables. Thus, its inhibitors are of great importance in the medical, cosmetic and agricultural fields. Materials and Methods: A series of twelve kojic acid derivatives wer...
متن کاملKojic acid-derived tyrosinase inhibitors: synthesis and bioactivity
Tyrosinase is a key enzyme for melanin biosynthesis, catalyzing the oxidation of L-tyrosine to L-dopaquinone. The tyrosinase inhibition is an effective approach to control hyperpigmentation in human skin and enzymatic browning in fruits and vegetables. Kojic acid is a naturally-occurring tyrosinase inhibitor which has been clinically used to treat the hyperpigmentation of skin. However, kojic a...
متن کاملNano-peanut shell-OSO3H: Green and natural-based renewable nanocatalyst for one-pot synthesis of dihydropyrano[3,2-b]chromenedione derivatives
Nano-peanut shell‑OSO3H nanoparticles were simply prepared and characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and thermal analysis techniques (TGA/DTG). The catalytic activity of nano-peanut shell‑OSO3H was studied in the synthesis of biological...
