Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Compounds produced from food ingredients through cooking, storage, and in vivo digestion and absorption have been found to have functions that are useful for improving human health. In this study, I aimed to develop an efficient and safe supply system of useful components produced by oxidation. Using the oxidative coupling reaction of polyphenols as a model, I attempted to synthesize a compound with anti-gout effect by electrolytic oxidation. As a result, the target compound was safely obtained with higher purity and yield than conventional oxidation reactions using harsh chemical reagents or enzymes. This method was also found to be applicable to the synthesis of compounds with similar structures.
