Basic Information
Product Name: Enoxolone
CAS Number: 471-53-4
Alias: Glycyrrhetinic acid, β-Glycyrrhetinic acid, Enoxolon
Molecular Formula: C30H46O4
Molecular Weight: 470.68 g/mol
Structural Information
- Structure Type: Triterpenoid compound, pentacyclic triterpene derivative extracted from licorice
- Structural Features: Possesses a fused five-ring skeleton, with carboxyl group and hydroxyl group on the ring structure. It has typical lipophilic properties and diverse biological activities.
Physical & Chemical Properties
- Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Melting Point: 292–295 °C
- Specific Rotation: +145° ~ +155° (c=1, Ethanol)
- Solubility: Slightly soluble in ethanol, methanol, chloroform and hot organic solvents; practically insoluble in water
- Stability: Stable under normal temperature and sealed conditions. Avoid long-term exposure to strong light, high temperature and strong oxidants.
Synthesis & Applications
Synthesis Method
Mainly extracted and purified from licorice root. Glycyrrhizin is hydrolyzed first, then separated, recrystallized and refined to obtain high-purity enoxolone. Partial products are prepared via chemical semi-synthesis.
Main Applications
- Pharmaceutical Industry: Used as anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer and mucosal protective agent; applied in medicines for digestive system diseases and skin inflammation.
- Cosmetic Industry: Common functional additive, with effects of anti-inflammatory, soothing skin, inhibiting bacteria and reducing pigmentation.
- Healthcare Products: Added into dietary supplements to regulate metabolism and protect gastric mucosa.
- Daily Chemicals: Used in oral care products to relieve oral inflammation and improve oral health.
Safety & Storage Instructions
- Hazard Classification: Low toxicity, non-irritant under normal usage
- Personal Protection: Wear conventional dust-proof gloves and masks. Avoid excessive inhalation of dust.
- Storage Condition: Keep containers tightly sealed. Store in cool, dry, dark and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat sources and oxidants.
- Transportation: Classified as general chemicals. Prevent package damage, moisture and direct sunlight during transit.
Quality & Spectral Data
- Purity (HPLC): ≥98.0% / ≥99.0%
- Loss on Drying: ≤0.5%
- Residue on Ignition: ≤0.1%
- Heavy Metals: ≤10 ppm
- IR Spectrum: Consistent with standard reference spectrum
