Tyrosinase is a multifunctional, glycosylated and copper-containing oxidase enzyme that can be found in animals, plants, and fungi. It is involved in several biological processes such as melanin biosynthesis. In this work, a series of isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones was evaluated as tyrosinase inhibitors. It was found that compounds phthalaldehydic acid (1), 3-(2,6-dihydroxy-4-isopropylphenyl)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (7), and 2-(3-oxo-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran-1-yl)-1,3-phenylene diacetate (9) were the most potent compounds inhibiting tyr
