Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
Umbelliferone may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in Aegle marmelos fruit using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. It is also used as a template for the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers used in the analysis of plant samples.

General description

Umbelliferone is a naturally occurring coumarin, present in a variety of medicinal plants from the Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) family and also in plants from other families such as mouse-ear hawkweed.

Other Notes

This compound is commonly found in plants of the genus: angelica glycyrrhiza pimpinella

In this study, we synthesized a simple but efficient quencher-free molecular beacon tethering 7-hydroxycoumarin on D-threoninol based on its pK(a) change. The pK(a) of 7-hydroxycoumarin in a single strand was determined as 8.8, whereas that intercalated in the duplex was
