Insects from a variety of Orders have been shown to detoxify phenols by conjugation with glucose and this mechanism has been suggested as a systematic biochemical characteristic of insects (Smith, 1955a). The phenols may be foreign compounds or may be those formed in the normal course of metabolism (Smith, 1955b, 1964; Kent & Brunet, 1959; Stay & Roth, 1962; Butenandt, Biekert, Kubler & Linzen,...

Phenols exert a great influence on the dynamic process of Cd in the soil-plant interface. We investigated the influence of phenols on the biogeochemical behavior of cadmium in the rhizosphere of Avicennia marina (Forsk) Vierh. All combinations of four levels of cadmium (0, 1, 2 and 4 mg/kg DW) and two levels of phenol (0 and 15 mg/kg DW) were included in the experimental design. We found that p...

over the past decade, the chemical behavior of flavonoids as antioxidants has become the subject ofintense experimental research. in this paper, we use a quantum-chemical approach to shed light on thereactivity of four poly phenols, benzoic acid, vanilic acid, gallic acid and flavone . in order to establishthe most efficient theoretical methodology, different methods, either hartree—fock-based ...

Cyclization and chlorination of 2-amino-5-benzyl-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydro hydro thieno [3, 2c] pyridine-3carboxamide yielded (3 a-b). Reaction with different substituted pyridines of [3 a-b] yielded 4a (1-4) and 4b (1-2). However reaction of 3a with different substituted 2-amino phenols yielded 4a (5-6). Further 3a yields 4a (7) & 4a (8) from different substituents like o-phenylene diamine and 4-c...

3-methyl-1-(4-sulfobuthyl)-1-H-imidazol-3ium hydrogen sulfate, as a dual acidic ionic liquid (DAIL), was found to be an efficient catalyst for the simple, rapid and green synthesis of substituted trisphenols from the condensation of different substituted phenols and 2,6-bis (methylol) phenols (BMP). DAIL catalyst efficiently promoted the reaction between phenols and BMPs with a variety of funct...

The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of various raw bean components as precursors of pyrogallol (1), hydroxyhydroquinone (2), catechol (3), 4-ethylcatechol (4), 4-methylcatechol (5), and 3-methylcatechol (6) under quasi "natural" roasting conditions by using the recently developed "in bean" model roast experiments. Freeze-dried, fully extracted bean shells were loaded wi...

grapes are significant sources of nutritional antioxidants as well as biologically active dietary components. this study was carried out to determine the amount of total phenols, anthocyanins and antioxidant activity of 35 grapevine (vitis vinifera l.) cultivars grown in fars province (iran). ripened bunches were randomly harvested from grapevine collection in zarghan (fars province, iran) agri...

INTRODUCTION Certain phenols and phthalates are used in many consumer products including personal care products (PCPs). AIMS We aimed to study the associations between the use of PCPs and urinary concentrations of biomarkers of select phenols and phthalates among Californian adults and their children. As an additional aim we compared phenols and phthalate metabolites concentrations measured i...
