Tetrahydrocurcumin

동의어: Tetrahydrocurcumin, THC, 1,7-Bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)heptane-3,5-dione, Tetrahydrodiferuloylmethane, Curcumin tetrahydro, Hidroxicurcumin

Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is a hydrogenated derivative of curcumin, the principal curcuminoid from the rhizome of Curcuma longa. Unlike its parent compound, THC lacks the conjugated double bonds in the heptane chain, giving it a colorless appearance and markedly improved stability against light and pH. It is manufactured via catalytic hydrogenation of curcumin and is commercially available as a high-purity, off-white powder (≥98% by HPLC).

With its enhanced stability and solubility profile, THC has become a preferred ingredient for formulators seeking the biological benefits of curcumin without the intense yellow color and poor bioavailability. It is widely used in topical cosmeceuticals, oral nutraceuticals, and functional foods, as well as in research on oxidative stress and metabolic health.
