A novel compound involved in the aroma of the fruit Campomanesia lineatifolia was isolated; the structure was determined by spectroscopic methods, mainly 1D and 2D NMR.

Kinetic analysis of the host guest complexation of a large, open molecular basket and a highly complementary adamantoid guest reveals that for these types of systems a dissociative mechanism is in operation. Hence, the resident adamantyl guest must completely vacate the cavity before another guest molecule can move in to replace it. As a result of the rigid nature of the host, the energy barrie...

The extent of oxidoreduction of the 3 alpha-, 7 alpha- and 12 alpha-hydroxyl groups in bile acids during the enterohepatic circulation in man was studied with the use of [3 beta-3H]-labeled deoxycholic acid and cholic acid, [7 beta-3H]-labeled cholic acid, and [12 beta-3H]-labeled deoxycholic acid and cholic acid. Each [3H]-labeled bile acid was given per os to healthy volunteers, together with...
