Download or read book Natural Products of Woody Plants written by John W. Rowe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wood as found in trees and bushes was of primary importance to ancient humans in their struggle to control their environment. Subsequent evolution through the Bronze and Iron Ages up to our present technologically advanced society has hardly diminished the importance of wood. Today, its role as a source of paper products, furniture, building materials, and fuel is still of major significance. Wood consists of a mixture of polymers, often referred to as lignocellulose. The cellulose micro fibrils consist of an immensely strong, linear polymer of glucose. They are associated with smaller, more complex polymers composed of various sugars called hemicelluloses. These polysaccharides are embedded in an amorphous phenylpropane polymer, lignin, creating a remarkably strong com posite structure, the lignocellulosic cell wall. Wood also contains materials that are largely extraneous to this lignocellulosic cell wall. These extracellular substances can range from less than 1070 to about 35% of the dry weight of the wood, but the usual range is 2% -10%. Among these components are the mineral constituents, salts of calcium, potassium, sodium, and other metals, particularly those present in the soil where the tree is growing. Some of the extraneous components of wood are too insoluble to be ex tracted by inert solvents and remain to give extractive-free wood its color; very often these are high-molecular-weight polyphenolics.

Download or read book Somatic Embryogenesis and Synthetic Seed I written by Professor Dr. Y. P. S. Bajaj and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While working in the laboratory of Professor Dr. Jacob Reinert at the Freie Universitat Berlin (1974-1976), I had the opportunity to become deeply involved in studying the intricacies of the fascinating phenomenon of somatic embryogenesis in plant cells and protoplasts. In numerous stimu lating discussions with Professor Reinert on this subject, I was fully convinced that somatic embryogenesis would become one of the most important areas of study, not only regarding basic and fundamental aspects, but also for its application in crop improvement. During the last decade, we have witnessed tremendous interest and achievements in the use of somatic embryos for the production of synthetic seeds, for micro propagation, genetic transformation, cryopreservation, and conservation of germplasm. The en masse production of somatic embryos in the bioreactors has facilitated some of these studies. Somatic embryos have now been induced in more than 300 plant species belonging to a wide range offamilies. It was therefore felt that a compilation ofliterature/state of the art on this subject was necessary. Thus, two volumes on Somatic Embryo genesis and Synthetic Seed have been compiled, which contain 65 chapters contributed by International experts. Somatic Embryogenesis and Synthetic Seed I comprises 31 chapters, arranged in 3 sections: Section I Commitment of the cell to somatic embryogenesis; early events; anatomy; molecular basis; gene expression; role of polyamines; machine vision analysis of somatic embryos. Section II Applications of somatic embryos; technology of synthetic seed; fluid drilling; micropropagation; genetic transfor mation through somatic embryos; cryopreservation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past two decades have seen an explosion in research on the synthesis of sesquiterpenes, an important class of hydrocarbons commonly found in oils, resins, and balsams. Volume Eleven in The Total Synthesis of Natural Products series continues to review this dynamic area of chemistry. It features systematic, A-to-Z coverage of sesquiterpenes synthesized between 1979-1994-a sesquidecade. Focusing on bicyclic and tricyclic compounds in sesquiterpene synthesis, this authoritative work complements Volume Ten's coverage of acyclic and monocyclic sesquiterpenes. The authors comb through the hundreds of sesquiterpene syntheses already developed, consolidating the multitude of research papers, and providing extensive references as well as author and subject indexes. To keep the presentation manageable, they emphasize literature where natural products were prepared, leaving out natural ring systems or compounds whose structures were misassigned. This volume presents multiple syntheses of the same compound in chronological order, making the various steps of the synthetic strategy easily accessible. In addition, it addresses one of the most important developments in sesquiterpene research, namely the increase in compound targets prepared in an optically active form. And while syntheses of racemates are not specifically marked, legends for synthesis schemes producing optically active compounds include their absolute configurations, signs of optical rotation, or both. An important resource for organic chemists, pharmaceutical and medicinal chemists, natural prod-ucts chemists, and biochemists, The Total Synthesis of Natural Products offers valuable insight into the structure and makeup of sesquiterpenes while serving as a practical tool for locating any of the major classes of sesquiterpene compounds. An invaluable guide for the chemist interested in natural products. Providing a fascinating, comprehensive look at sesquiterpene synthesis, Volume Eleven of The Total Synthesis of Natural Products reviews sesquiterpenes synthesized in the period 1979-1994, continuing the coverage begun with Volume Ten in the series (see below). This authoritative work: Focuses on bicyclic and tricyclic sesquiterpenes. Explains the structure and makeup of this important class of hydrocarbons. Serves as a useful, practical tool for researchers interested in locating any of the major classes of sesquiterpene compounds. Provides multiple syntheses of the same compound chronologically, clearly showing the evolution of the synthetic strategy.

Download or read book Part 1 Total Synthesis of khusimone zizanoic Acid and epizizanoic Acid written by Hong Chan Wing and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of this thesis describes a total synthesis of three zizaene sesquiterpenes, (-)-khusimone (I), (-)-epizizanoic acid (II) and (t)-zizanoic acid (III), starting from the coirmer- cially available (-) -J-l 0-camphor sulfonic acid ammonium salt (IV). Fusion of the salt IV with solid potassium hydroxide gave (-) - a -campholenic acid (V) which was converted to the corresponding methyl ester VI with methyl iodide and potassium carbonate in refluxing acetone. Ozonolysis of ester VI followed by reductive work-up using triphenylphosphine afforded keto aldehyde VII. Its cyclization to enone VIII was effected by p-toluenesulfonic acid in refluxing benzene. Irradiation of enone VIII with 1,1-diethoxy- ethene followed by hydrolysis of the photoadduct IX gave rise to a mixture of diketones X and XI in a ratio of 5:8. The latter product was converted to the former one by treatment with pyridin- ium bromide perbromide in acetic acid followed by reduction of the resulting enediones XII with zinc in acetic acid. Selective ketalization of diketone X using 2-ethyl-2-methyl- 1,3-dioxolane and p-toluenesulfonic acid gave rise to ketal XIII which was hydrolyzed to the corresponding acid XIV with alkali. Treatment of the sodium salt derived from acid XIV and sodium hydride with methyl magnesium bromide followed by esterification of the resulting hydroxy acid XV with diazomethane afforded alcohol XVI. On treatment with thionyl chloride in pyridine in benzene, alcohol XVI underwent dehydration to give ester XVII which was subsequently reduced by lithium aluminium hydride to alcohol XVIII. Its conversion to the corresponding chloride XIX was effected by phosphorus oxychloride in pyridine. Hydrolysis of chloride XIX with hydrochloric acid and ring expansion of the product XX with ethyl diazoacetate and boron trifluoride etherate gave rise to keto ester XXI. When heated at reflux with sodium hydroxide in ethanol and water, keto ester XXI underwent concomitant decarbethoxylation and cyclization to give (-)-khusimone (I). On treatment with dimethyl sulfonium methyliue y.Lide, (-)- khusimone (I) was transformed to epoxide XXII. Boron trifluoride catalyzed rearrangement of epoxide XXII afforded aldehyde XXIII which was subsequently oxidized with Jones reagent- to give (-)- epizizanoic acid (II). Alternatively, epimerization of aldehyde XXIII to XXIV 7 followed by Jones oxidation resulted in the formation of (t)-zizanoic acid (III). In the second part of this thesis, the preparation of trione XXV, a potential synthetic precursor of cedrenoi.d sesquiterpenes, is described. (-)-a-Canpholenic acid (V) was first, converted to ketone XXVI by treatment with methyllithium. Photcoxidation of ketone XXVI followed by reductive work-up with trietayl phosphite gave rise to epimeric alcohols XXVII which were subsequently oxidized with active manganese dioxide to give enone XXVII, Addition of 1-nitropropane to enone XXVIII was effected by u r - mg potassium carbonate as a base. The salt derived from tJie oroduct XXIX and one equivalent of sodium methoxide in methanol was subjected to ozonolysis. Reductive work-up using dimethyl sulfide afforded trione XXV. Results obtained from the preliminary studies on the transformation of trione XXV to cedrenoid sesquiterpenes are also discussed.
Download or read book Total Synthesis of Plakortide E and Biomimetic Synthesis of Plakortone B written by Xiao-Yu Sun and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his thesis, Xiaoyu Sun conducts the first total synthesis of all possible stereoisomers of plakortide E and also confirms the absolute configuration of natural plakortide E. Xiaoyu Sun subsequently converts Plakortide E methyl ester to plakortone B in a biomimetic conversion. Construction and functionalization of cyclic peroxides are notoriously difficult due to the very low O-O bond dissociation energy. Plaktoride E is isolated from the Jamaican marine sponge platorits halichondrioides and contains a five-membered peroxide ring, with oxygen atoms linked to tertiary C4 and C6 centers. The methodology used for synthesizing highly substituted cyclic peroxides is novel and useful, and not only extends the field of Pd-catalyzed reactions, but also provides a convenient synthetic approach for the preparation of the 1,2-dioxolanes series. Plakortide E and plakortone B are bioactive, which means that the synthetic studies on them and their analogs are pivotal in drug discovery.
