Experimental and theoretical investigations of lignin-urea-formaldehyde wood adhesive: Density functional theory analysis
2021
Abstract In view of its chemical structure, lignin has recently become an interesting candidate for various applications. This work serves to optimize the isolation process of lignin from sugar industry by-product (bagasse can, molasses beet) applying alkali treatment. For this purpose, the effect of alkali and sulfuric acid concentrations have been studied ranging from 10% (w/v) to 20% (w/v) and 1.5 M–3 M, respectively. Moreover, the isolated lignins were characterized by different complementary analysis such as FT-IR and TGA/DTG. The aim behind this work is to reduce formaldehyde emissions and improving mechanical as well as physical properties of wood adhesive. Lignin was added with diff…
Phenolic and acetylenic metabolites from Artemisia assoana
1987
Abstract Nine flavones, three coumarins, two flavone glycosides, p-hydroxyacetophenone and methyl caffeate have been isolated from the aerial parts of Artemisia assoana. Six diacetylenic spiroketal enol-ethers, a mixture of n-alkyl p-coumarates and a new phenylpropanoid metabolite, sinapyl alcohol diisovalerate, have been isolated from root extracts of the same plant. 1H and 13C NMR spectra of some of these compounds are given and taxonomic aspects are discussed.
Design, synthesis, and SAR analysis of cytotoxic sinapyl alcohol derivatives.
2005
Five series totalling 51 of sinapyl alcohol derivatives were designed and synthesized. Their cytotoxicity analyses were performed oil six human tumor cell lines Such as PC-3. CNE, KB, A549, BEL-7404, and HeLa. Certain sinapyl alcohol derivatives showed significant cytotoxic activities. Compound 14d exhibited especially potent cytotoxicity against the BEL-7404 cell line with an IC50 value of 0.7 mu M, which showed more cytotoxic activity than the positive control, cisplatin. The structure-cytotoxicity relationships were discussed and the CoMFA analysis was performed using the cytotoxic data against HeLa cells as a template. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
