SERIES OF SKIN WHITENING (LIGHTENING) COMPOUNDS

The present invention is directed to inhibitors of tyrosinase, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such tyrosinase inhibitors, and methods of making and using the same. Specifically, included in the present invention are compositions of matter comprised of at least one 2,4-dihydroxybenzene analog, which inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and which inhibit the overproduction of melanin.

Synthesis and nematocidal activity of hydroxystilbenes

Various (E)-hydroxystilbenes were synthesized from (E)/(Z) mixtures of methoxystilbenes through a new (Z)-(E) isomerization method followed by demethylation. The nematocidal activity appears when methoxystilbenes are demethylated to hydroxystilbenes. For this activity, a hydroxy group at the C-2 or C-3 position is necessary. Thus, 2-hydroxy-, 3-hydroxy-, 2,6-dihydroxy-, 3,4-dihydroxy-, 3,5-dihydroxy-, 2,2'-dihydroxy-, 3,3'-dihydroxy-, 3,4'dihydroxy-, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy-, 5-hydroxy-2-methoxy-, 2-hydroxy-6-methoxy-, 6-allyloxy-2-hydroxy-, 3-hydroxy-5-methoxy-, and 5-allyloxy-3-hydroxystilbenes showed rather potent nematocidal activity. The activity of 5-allyloxy-3-hydroxystilbene was the strongest [minimal lethal concentration (MLC) = 30 μM]. The activities of the (E) and (Z) isomers were comparable. The activities were also retained, though they were weaker, in the dihydro derivatives, hydroxybibenzyls.
