Preparation of the Phencyclidine Analogues (Part II)
Using a-tetralone, as starting material, a series of phencyclidine analogues were synthesized. This ketone was reacted separately with ethylmagnesium bromide, P-methoxyphenylmagnesium bromide and P-methylphenylmagnesium bromide. The resultant alcohols were treated with a suspension of NaN3 and CCl3COOH in CHCl3. The azides were subsequently...
متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part II: Finite Element Approach
ABSTRACT- Mechanical damage degrades fruit quality in the chain from production to the consumption. Damage is due to static, impact and vibration loads during processes such as harvesting, transportation, sorting and bulk storage. In the present study finite element (FE) models were used to simulate the process of static bruising for apple fruits by contact of the fruit with a hard surface. Thr...
متن کاملAmazonian Native Palm Fruits as Sources of Antioxidant Bioactive Compounds.
The Amazon region has many sources of fruits, especially native ones not yet explored, but which have some potential for use, as is the case with certain palms. The objective of this study was to evaluate the content of bioactive compounds and total antioxidant capacities of fruits from native palms from the Brazilian Amazon. The fruits of five palm species (bacaba, buriti, inajá, pupunha, and ...
متن کاملTriterpene Esters and Biological Activities from Edible Fruits of Manilkara subsericea (Mart.) Dubard, Sapotaceae
Manilkara subsericea (Mart.) Dubard (Sapotaceae) is popularly known in Brazil as "guracica." Studies with Manilkara spp indicated the presence of triterpenes, saponins, and flavonoids. Several activities have been attributed to Manilkara spp such as antimicrobial, antiparasitic and antitumoral, which indicates the great biological potential of this genus. In all, 87.19% of the hexanic extract f...
متن کاملHyperdominance in Amazonian forest carbon cycling
While Amazonian forests are extraordinarily diverse, the abundance of trees is skewed strongly towards relatively few 'hyperdominant' species. In addition to their diversity, Amazonian trees are a key component of the global carbon cycle, assimilating and storing more carbon than any other ecosystem on Earth. Here we ask, using a unique data set of 530 forest plots, if the functions of storing ...
