shikimic acid

Shikimic Acid (Shikimate) is a tri-hydroxy cyclohexene carboxylic acid important in the biosynthesis of so many compounds that the shikimate pathway is named after it.

3,4-O-Isopropylidene-shikimic acid (3,4-O-Isopropylidene shikimic acid) exhibits significant anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombosis, antioxidant, and analgesic effects, and provides protective benefits against trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-induced experimental colitis in rats, likely because of its antioxidant properties.

5-O-Caffeoylshikimic acid shows anti-oxidative activity; it also shows anti-inflammatory activity, the underlying mechanism was associated with downregulation of nuclear factor-κB.

4-O-Caffeoylshikimic acid is a natural product from Illicium verum.

3,5-Di-O-galloylshikimic acid is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T123852 and the CAS number is 95753-52-9.

3-O-Caffeoylshikimic acid is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences and the catalog number is T125535.

(-)-3-Dehydroshikimic acid (3-DHS; 5-Dehydroshikimic acid) is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids and possesses antioxidant activity.
