Bisdesmethoxycurcumin

CAS: 33171-05-0
CAT: 9704

Abstract

Bisdesmethoxycurcumin (CAS 33171-05-0) is a naturally occurring curcuminoid found in Curcuma longa (turmeric). It ranks among the three main bioactive compounds in turmeric and serves as the fully demethoxylated analog of curcumin. The molecule keeps the diarylheptanoid backbone but lacks methoxy groups, which gives it distinct chemical properties.

This compound contributes to the characteristic color and biological activity of turmeric extracts. It shows strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Researchers value it as a reference standard for analyzing turmeric products. Bisdesmethoxycurcumin modulates important targets such as NF-κB and COX-2. Scientists have also studied its effects on cellular redox balance, apoptosis, and epigenetic regulation.

Its unique structure provides valuable insights when compared with curcumin and desmethoxycurcumin.

Planta Analytica offers high-purity bisdesmethoxycurcumin as part of its curcuminoid reference standards. This product supports natural product research, phytochemical profiling, and quality control of botanical supplements. You can also find companion standards — curcumin and desmethoxycurcumin — in our collection for complete curcuminoid analysis.
