This study reports the 24 h human plasma pharmacokinetics of 3,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid (dimethoxycinnamic acid) after consumption of coffee, and the membrane transport characteristics of certain dimethoxycinnamic acid derivatives, as present in coffee. Eight healthy human volunteers consumed a low-polyphenol diet

Six compounds were isolated from Veronicastrum sibiricum and identified as D-mannitol, beta-sitosterol, daucosterine, 3-0-acetyloleanolic acid, 3, 4-dimethoxy cinnamic acid and isoferulic acid. Pharmacological experiment has shown that isoferulic acid is anti-inflammatory and analgesic; 3-0-acetyloleanolic acid is anti-inflammatory; mannitol is analgesic

A method based on the formation of pi-complexes with chlorogenate-like species was proposed for the determination of caffeine in regular (nondecaffeinated) and decaffeinated coffee. Both caffeate and 3,4-dimethoxycinnamate were able to transform caffeine--a neutral species in aqueous solutions--into an anionic
