SSZ-13 materials have been synthesized with varying amounts of Al to produce samples with different concentrations of Brønsted acid sites, and consequently, these SSZ-13 materials contain increasing numbers of paired Al heteroatoms with increasing Al content. These materials were then characterized and tested as catalysts for the methanol-toolefins (MTO) reaction at 400 °C and 100% methanol con...

More than 25 dammarane-type tetracyclic triterpenoid saponins have been isolated from ginseng, the root and rhizome of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer (Araliaceae). The genuine sapogenins of those saponins, 20(S)-protopanaxa-diol and -triol, were identified as 20(S) 12beta-hydroxy-and 20(S) 6alpha,12beta-dihydroxy-dammarenediol-II, respectively. There are two types of preparations from ginseng: white ...
