METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING RAMALIN AND RAMALIN PRECURSOR BY USING GLUTAMIC ACID DERIVATIVE AND HYDROXY ANILINE OR HYDROXY ANILINE HAVING PROTECTED HYDROXY GROUP

摘要

Disclosed is a method of the synthesis of ramalin. It comprises reacting a glutamic acid derivative, which is prepared using alkylchloroformate, with a hydrazine salt compound, which is prepared from hydroxy aniline, whether protected or not. The synthesis method allows ramalin, excellent in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, to be simply synthesized at stable yield even without use of a highly toxic solvent such as DMF. In addition, the method is cost competitive, and provides ramalin at high efficiency, thus enabling the mass production of ramalin.
