2-Methylcardol triene

2-Methylcardol triene is a phenol found in cashew nut shell liquid that inhibits α-glucosidase (IC50=39.6 μM). 2-Methylcardol triene is schistosomicidal, killing 100% of adult S. mansoni worms after 24 hours when used at concentrations of 100 and 200 μM. 2-Methylcardol triene has been used as a starting material for the synthesis of mono- and bis-benzoxazines.
