DescriptionTrans-methylferulate, also known as methyl ferulic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as coumaric acids and derivatives. These are aromatic compounds containing Aromatic compounds containing a cinnamic acid moiety (or a derivative thereof) hydroxylated at the C2 (ortho-), C3 (meta-), or C4 (para-) carbon atom of the benzene ring. Trans-methylferulate is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Methyl ferulate is found in Actaea racemosa, Aristolochia cucurbitifolia, Aristolochia elegans, Aristolochia foveolata, Aristolochia kaempferi, Aristolochia kankauensis, Artemisia capillaris, Aster indicus, Brucea javanica, Buddleja globosa, Pisonia umbellifera, Cestrum parqui, Citrus medica, Citrus sudachi , Coreopsis grandiflora, Guatteria foliosa, Houttuynia cordata, Humulus japonicus, Iris milesii, Ligularia dentata, Ligularia fischeri, Meum athamanticum, Murraya paniculata, Penstemon whippleanus, Phellodendron chinense, Phyllanthus oligospermus, Pinus massoniana, Pisonia aculeata, Rhus semialata , Sabia japonica, Severinia buxifolia , Spiraea formosana , Stemona japonica, Stereospermum acuminatissimum, Tamarix aphylla, Taraxacum mongolicum, Tetragonia tetragonoides and Zanthoxylum wutaiense. It was first documented in 2008 (PMID: 17984079). Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on trans-methylferulate (PMID: 21542597).
