The molecule is a hydroxycoumarin that is 4-hydroxycoumarin substituted by a methoxy group ar position 7 and a 1,2,6-trimethyl-7-(4-methyl-2-furyl)-hepta-2(E),5(E)-dienyl moiety at position 3. Isolated from the roots of Ferula fukanensis, it inhibits production of nitric oxide (NO). It has a role as a metabolite and an EC 1.14.13.39 (nitric oxide synthase) inhibitor. It is a sesquiterpenoid, a hydroxycoumarin, an aromatic ether and a member of furans.
