Butenolide derivatives have the potential to be effective and environmentally friendly antifouling agents. In the present study. a butenolide derivative was structurally modified into Boc-butenolide to increase its melting point and remove its foul smell. The structurally modified Boc-butenolide demonstrated similar antifouling capabilities to butenolide in larval settlement bioassays... https://thegreensjunglebeautyshops.shop/product-category/cap/
