3,4-(Dibenzyloxy)-benzoyl chloride (m.p. 95°) was prepared from the corresponding acid, and reduced to 3,4-(dibenzyloxy)-benzaldehyde (m.p. 86°) by Rosenmund's method. The over-all yield of this aldehyde was 52%, based on the barium carbonate used for preparation of the acid. The aldehyde was debenzylated by hydrogen bromide in acetic acid, and the protocatechualdehyde thus obtained was condensed with malonic acid, to give caffeic acid. Condensation of 3,4-(dibenzyloxy)-benzaldehyde with malonic acid gave 3,4–(dibenzyloxy)-cinnamic acid (m.p. 206–208°) which was converted to dihydrocaffeic acid by catalytic hydrogenation. The over-all yields of caffeic and dihydrocaffeic acids were 36% and 39%, respectively, based on barium carbonate. Protocatechuic acid was readily obtained by hydrogenolysis of 3,4-(dibenzyloxy)-benzoic acid; the yield was 70% based on carbonate.

Background: A series of novel cinnamic acid piperazine amide derivatives has been designed and synthesized, and their biological activities were also evaluated as potential tyrosinase inhibitors. Methods: Compounds 9, 11 and 17 showed the most potent biological activity (IC50 = 66.5, 61.1 and 66 µM, respectively). In silico docking simulation was performed to position compound 11 into the Agaricus bisporus mushroom tyrosinase’s active site to determine the putative binding interactions. Results and Conclusion: The results indicated that compound 11 could serve as a promising lead compound for further development of potent tyrosinase inhibitors.
