Synonyms: Acetate gossypol, Gossypol acetate, Cottonseed polyphenol acetate, Gossypol 6,6′-disalicylaldehyde acetic acid adduct
Gossypol-acetic acid is the acetic acid adduct of gossypol, a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound found in cottonseed (Gossypium species). The acetic acid salt form enhances stability and solubility while preserving the biological activity of gossypol.
Gossypol is a dimeric sesquiterpene with two naphthalene rings connected by a binaphthyl bond. It is known for its diverse biological activities including male antifertility effects, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor properties. Gossypol-acetic acid is primarily used as a research reagent and pharmaceutical intermediate.
