Product Description
m-Anisaldehyde is an endogenously produced metabolite.
m-Anisaldehyde (CAS#: 591-31-1) is an aromatic aldehyde with the molecular formula C8H8O2 and a molecular weight of 136.15. It is also known as 3-Methoxybenzaldehyde. This compound is an endogenous metabolite and appears as a clear brown liquid that is slightly soluble in water. m-Anisaldehyde has significant antifungal activity against Candida sp., including azole-resistant strains. It is used as a reagent in the synthesis of substrate inhibitors of acylated quinoline N-oxides and potent heterodimeric modulators of breast cancer resistance protein.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
m-Anisaldehyde does not have a well-defined pharmacological target, as it is primarily a chemical intermediate and endogenous metabolite. It has significant antifungal activity against Candida sp., suggesting it may interact with fungal cell membrane or enzyme targets. However, its specific molecular targets in fungi have not been fully characterized. The compound's aldehyde and methoxy groups make it reactive and capable of forming adducts with biological molecules.
ln Vitro
m-Anisaldehyde demonstrates significant in vitro antifungal activity against Candida sp., including azole-resistant strains. It inhibits the growth of various Candida species in a concentration-dependent manner. The compound's antifungal activity is related to its aldehyde and methoxy functionality, which are common among plant-derived antimicrobial agents. However, detailed in vitro activity data, including MIC values, are limited. It is also used as a reagent in organic synthesis.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity of m-Anisaldehyde is related to its role as an endogenous metabolite. It is found in various foods and may have biological effects in plants or animals. However, the compound is not used therapeutically, and comprehensive in vivo studies evaluating its pharmacokinetic properties, efficacy, and safety are limited. Its antifungal activity suggests potential applications in treating fungal infections, but further research is needed.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding experiments for m-Anisaldehyde are not typical, as it is a chemical intermediate rather than a well-defined pharmacologically active compound. Studies may involve measuring its antifungal activity using broth microdilution or disk diffusion methods. Its chemical properties are characterized using standard analytical methods such as GC and HPLC. The compound is also used as a reference standard in analytical chemistry.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular experiments for m-Anisaldehyde typically involve studying its antifungal effects on Candida species. Fungi are treated with the compound, and growth inhibition is measured using optical density or colony counting methods. The compound's effects on fungal cell viability and morphology are also assessed. Cytotoxicity assays may be performed to determine if the compound affects mammalian cell viability.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for m-Anisaldehyde are not typical, as it is a chemical intermediate rather than a drug candidate. Studies may involve administering the compound to animals to study its metabolism or to evaluate its antifungal effects in infection models. However, comprehensive in vivo studies evaluating its pharmacokinetic properties are limited. The compound's antifungal activity warrants further investigation in animal models.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of m-Anisaldehyde have not been extensively characterized. With a molecular weight of 136.15 and a logP of 1.55-1.554, the compound is expected to have moderate lipophilicity. It is slightly soluble in water and has a boiling point of 228-229°C. The compound is volatile and can be absorbed through inhalation and skin contact. Detailed pharmacokinetic studies are limited.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for m-Anisaldehyde indicate that it may be an irritant. Mutation data have been reported. As an aldehyde, it may cause skin and eye irritation and may be harmful if ingested or inhaled. The compound should be handled with care, and standard safety protocols for handling aldehydes should be followed, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area.
Additional Infomation
3-Methoxybenzaldehyde is a type of benzaldehyde compound in which the hydrogen at the 3-position is replaced by a methoxy group. It is a metabolite of rapeseed (Brassica napus). It belongs to the benzaldehyde class of compounds and is also a monomethoxybenzene. It has been reported that 3-methoxybenzaldehyde is also found in clove (Syzygium aromaticum), and relevant data exists.
m-Anisaldehyde is a research chemical that has not entered clinical trials or received regulatory approval for therapeutic use. It is primarily used as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis and as a reagent in the synthesis of various compounds. The compound is also an endogenous metabolite and has significant antifungal activity against Candida sp.. It is also known as 3-Methoxybenzaldehyde. Further research is needed to explore its potential therapeutic applications, particularly as an antifungal agent.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
