Abstract
Bakuchiol, a meroterpene natural product found in various plants, exhibits diverse biological activities, notably anticancer properties. Researchers have synthesized numerous analogs targeting different positions, such as alcoholic OH, ethenyl, and isopropylidene groups within bakuchiol, aiming to enlighten potent therapeutic agents with enhanced pharmaceutical characteristics. The review aims to focus on the extensive potential of the bioactive molecule, bakuchiol describing SAR that may lead to the development of a variety of bakuchiol derivatives. Literature survey has been carried out to determine the potential of bakuchiol and its derivatives. This review comprehensively outlines the biosynthesis, isolation, patent, and clinical studies of bakuchiol, and pharmacological potential of bakuchiol derivatives documented to date. Additionally, it explores the structure-activity relationships observed in its derivatives. Collectively, findings from various studies underscore the significant potential of bakuchiol and its derivatives in the development of potent anticancer and other therapeutic agents. Ultimately, this review serves as a valuable resource for researchers interested in both the chemistry and biology of bakuchiol, offering insights into its multifaceted applications and paving the way for further exploration in this field.
