Short-chain carboxylic acids, a new class of teratogens: studies of potential biochemical mechanisms.
Certain short-chain carboxylic acids (SCCA) appear to share a common teratogenic potential, although the structural requirements for activity remain obscure. By using a whole rat embryo culture model system, several biochemical processes have been examined, either as potential initial sites of teratogenic action or as early steps in the pathway to malformation. Valproate, methoxyacetate, and bu...
متن کاملShort-chain carboxylic acids from the anal glands of the binturong, Arctictis binturong (Viverridae, Mammalia).
The binturong (Arctictis binturong) is a large, arboreal viverrid (subfamily Paradoxurinae) with a coat of long coarse hair and a prehensile tail that inhabits the dense forests of Southeast Asia, Palawan, Sumatra, Java, and Borneo. This species, as with most Carnivora, possesses paired glands that open on both sides of the anus (Story, 1945). These anal glands are used by both sexes to scent-m...
متن کاملBiochemical Production and Separation of Carboxylic Acids for Biorefinery Applications
Carboxylic acids are traditionally produced from fossil fuels and have significant applications in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and fuel industries. Significant progress has been made in replacing such fossil fuel sources used for production of carboxylic acids with sustainable and renewable biomass resources. However, the merits and demerits of each carboxylic acid processing platform a...
متن کاملNew catalytic transformations of carboxylic acids*
A series of metal-catalyzed processes are presented, in which carboxylic acids act as sources of either carbon nucleophiles or electrophiles, depending on the catalyst employed, the mode of activation, and the reaction conditions. A first reaction mode is the addition of carboxylic acids or amides over C–C multiple bonds, giving rise to enol esters or enamides, respectively. The challenge here ...
متن کاملMid-chain carboxylic acids by catalytic refining of microalgae oil
Microalgae oil serves as a feedstock for a biorefinery approach to mid-chain (di-)carboxylic acid esters, currently only accessible via demanding synthetic routes. Via the butenolysis of monoand poly-unsaturated fatty acids, short-chain unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters and monoand di-enes were produced in a high selectivity. These olefins were further processed into value added linear mid-c...
