Description

General description

Phloroglucinol is a trihydroxybenzene with antithrombotic, profibrinolytic, antimicrobial, antimalarial, cancer chemopreventive, anti-HIV and anti-leishmanial activities. Phloroglucinol (PG) is a biosynthetic precursor of the 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) an antibiotic against soil-borne diseases. Phloroglucinol is a useful intermediate because it is polyfunctional.

Application

Phloroglucinol has been used to prevent hyperhydricity by promoting lignification of shoots. It has also been used in PG (phloroglucinol)-sucrose treatments for growth and development of in vitro derived shoot tips.
