Marmesin (nodakenetin) is a chemical compound precursor in psoralen and linear furanocoumarins biosynthesis.{{cite journal|last1=Steck|first1=Warren|last2=Brown|first2=Stewart A.|title=Comparison of (+)- and (−)-Marmesin as Intermediates in the Biosynthesis of Linear Furanoconmarins|journal=Biochemistry and Cell Biology|volume=49|issue=11|year=1971|pages=1213–1216|issn=1208-6002|doi=10.1139/o71-174|pmid=5134594 }}
Marmesin plays a central role in the biosynthesis of furocoumarins in the plant ruta graveolens, more commonly known as rue. It acts as the natural intermediate in the formation of the furan ring that leads to a 4’,5’-dihydro furocoumarin-derivative. This substance can then be transformed into psoralen and other furocoumarins present in rue. Upon feeding the herb a dose of marmesin, radioactivity became strongly incorporated into psoralen and thus the plant itself.Caporale, G.; Dall’Acqua, F.; Capozzi, A.; Marciani, S.; Crocco, R. Studies on the biosynthesis of some furocoumarins present in Ruta graveolens. Zeitschrift für Naturforschung B 1971, 26, 1256-1259. It is constituent of Aegle marmelos, Ammi majus, Poncirus trifoliata and Prangos bucharica and others Chatterjee, A. et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1949, 71, 606-609

Production
Synthesis of marmesin has been successfully conducted in the laboratory on multiple occasions. One way of doing so is by a strategy based on the palladium-catalyzed intramolecular coupling reaction. This reaction would construct the dihydropyran ring and synthesize the compound from the intermediate (-)-peucedanol. The key step in the overall synthesis uses catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of an enone.Nemoto, T.; Ohshima, T.; Shibasaki, M. Enantioselective total syntheses of novel PKC activator (+)-decursin and its derivatives using catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of an enone. Tetrahedron Lett. 2000, 41, 9569-9574.
