4-Methoxyresorcinol (3) was synthesized as the precursor for glycitein (6) synthesis by the oxidation of 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (1) to the aryl formate with H2O2 and a catalytic amount of SeO2. Glycitein (6) was synthesized by cyclization of 2,4,4'-trihydroxy-5-methoxydeoxybenzoin (5) with N,N-dimethylformamide, boron trifluoride diethyl ether, and methanesulfonyl chloride in a microwave oven.

Validity of the MED4CHILD tool for assessing adherence to the Mediterranean diet in preschool children.

Eur J Pediatr

January 2025

Growth, Exercise, Nutrition and Development (GENUD) Research Group, Instituto Agroalimentario de Aragón (IA2), Faculty of Health Sciences, Universidad de Zaragoza, Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de Aragón (IIS Aragón), 50009, Saragossa, Spain.

Unlabelled: Most of the available tools to assess adherence to Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) were constructed for adults, having limited applicability to children and adolescents. The aim of this study is to validate a specific questionnaire to assess adherence to MedDiet in children aged 3 to 6 years (MED4CHILD questionnaire). The validation was performed in a baseline examination of a cohort of children who were recruited in schools in seven cities.
