The mechanism of coumarin-induced hepatotoxicity in the rat has been investigated by comparing the effects of coumarin with those of three coumarin derivatives, namely 3,4-dihydrocoumarin (DHC), 3,4-dimethylcoumarin (3,4-DMC) and 6-methylcoumarin (6-MC). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed either control diet or

Fourier transform-infrared (4000-400 cm-1) and Raman (3500-50 cm-1) spectral measurements have been made for 6-methyl-4-bromomethylcoumarin. Equilibrium structures, harmonic vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities, and depolarization ratios have been computed at RHF/6-31G* and B3LYP/6-31G* levels of theory. Twisting CH2Br moiety in the

Over a 6-year period, 187 patients with a history of photosensitivity were photopatch tested using standard techniques. Seventy-six patients were male and 111 were female. Most patients were white (151 patients). Two thirds of the patients were between the ages

Guinea-pig tests were conducted on a known photocontact allergen, tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCSA), a known phototoxin, 8-methoxypsoralen, two reportedly weak photoallergens, musk ambrette and 6-methylcoumarin, and a negative control, octylphenoxy polyethoxyethanol (Triton X-15). The data show that under the test conditions used

6-Methylcoumarin (6-MC), a synthetic fragrance material, has been reported to be photoallergenic both in man and in guinea pigs. To elucidate the possible mechanism of photoallergenicity, 6-MC in ethanolic solution was exposed to 200 joules/cm2 of long-wavelength ultraviolet (UV) ranging
