Linderatin and linderatone are two flavonoids from the leaves of Lindera umbellata var. lancea and L. umbellata.[1][2]
Linderatin has patented use as a skin whitening (depigmentation) agent.[3]
Synthesis

The Hoesch reaction between hydrocinnamonitrile (2-phenylethylcyanide) [645-59-0] (1) with phloroglucinol [108-73-6] (2) gives 3-phenylpropanoyl-phloroglucinol [1088-08-0] (3). Treatment with menthadiene (alpha-phellandrene) [99-83-2] (4) completes the synthesis of linderatin (5).
