Raspberry ketone is a natural phenolic compound
that is the primary aroma compound of red raspberries. It is used in
perfumery, in cosmetics, and as a food additive to impart a fruity
odor.
In plants, raspberry ketone is synthesized from coumaroyl-CoA But
since the natural abundance of raspberry ketone is very low, it is
prepared industrially by a variety of methods from chemical
intermediatesWhen given to mice in high doses (up to 2% of food
intake), raspberry ketone has been shown to prevent
high-fat-diet-induced elevations in body weight
This effect is reported to stem from the alteration of lipid
metabolism, increasing norepinephrine-induced lipolysis. Although
products containing this compound are marketed for weight loss, this
effect has not been studied in humans.
