Ligustilide (CAS 4431-01-0) is a naturally occurring phthalide found in the essential oils of Ligusticum chuanxiong and Angelica sinensis, two herbs deeply rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. As a lipophilic compound, it is valued for its stability in lipid-based formulations and its role as a marker compound for quality control of these botanicals.
We supply ligustilide as a pale yellow to yellow viscous liquid with ≥98% purity (HPLC), packaged under inert gas to preserve its integrity. Each batch is accompanied by a full COA, MSDS, and TDS, ensuring traceability and compliance for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.
