Methyl gallate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Methyl gallate is a phenolic compound found in Terminalia myriocarpa and Geranium niveum. It is also found in wine.
It is the methyl ester of gallic acid.

Description

Methyl gallate is a phenol that has been found in Meliaceae and has diverse biological activities. It reduces adipogenic hormonal stimulation-induced lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells when used at a concentration of 50 μM. Methyl gallate is active against V. cholerae in vitro (MIC = 32 μg/ml) and reduces V. cholerae-induced intestinal fluid accumulation in suckling mice when administered at doses of 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg. It reduces tumor growth and decreases the number of intratumor CD25+Foxp3high regulatory T cells (Tregs) in an EL-4 model of murine lymphoma. Methyl gallate (0.7, 7, and 70 mg/kg) reduces knee joint edema and leukocyte, neutrophil, and mononuclear cell infiltration in a mouse model of zymosan-induced arthritis.

Chemical Properties

white to slightly beige crystalline powder

Uses

Methyl gallate exhibits potent antitumor activities by inhibiting tumor infiltration of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.

Uses

Methyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate exhibits potent antitumor activities by inhibiting tumor infiltration of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.

Uses

The gallate ester methyl gallate is used as an antioxidant. A ease was reported using a reprography paper.

Definition

ChEBI: Methyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate is a gallate ester obtained by the formal condensation of gallic acid with methanol. It exhibits anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties. It has a role as a plant metabolite, an anti-inflammatory agent and an antioxidant.

Contact allergens

This ester of gallic acid is used as an antioxidant agent. A case was reported by using a reprography paper.

Purification Methods

Methyl gallate [99-24-1] M 184.2, m 202o. Crystallise the gallate ester from MeOH. [Beilstein 10 IV 1998.]
