perilla frutescens is an annual herb of the mint family native to east asia. polyphenols present in perilla have various structural varieties with large diversity of biological activities. it is direct influence the quality of perilla plant and their potential functions. some of these products have been studied and proven to be effective source of phenolic antioxidants. the aqueous extract cont...

BACKGROUND Methanol has become an alternative fuel for gasoline, which is facing a rapidly rising world demand with a limited oil supply. Methanol-gasoline has been used in China, but phase stability and vapor lock still need to be resolved in methanol-gasoline applications. In this paper, a series of tartaric esters were synthesized and used as phase stabilizers and saturation vapor pressure d...

In an earlier study of the effect of culture of excised tobacco leaves in darkness in solutions of a number of common organic acids (1)) it was noted that the behavior of the malic and citric acids in leaves cultured in (+)tartrate differed little if at all from that observed in the control samples cultured in solutions of inorganic salts. However, the so called “unknown acid” fraction, i.e. th...

in this study, the conditions for producing invert syrup were optimized and factors such as type of acid citric, hydrochloridric and tartaric (each at two levels), reaction time (1 and 1.5 h) and temperature (70 and 80°c) were studied. the properties of invert syrups which produced by different methods were compared with each other and a standard and optimized method, for inversion reaction, wa...

uv/tio2 photocatalysis of chelated copper in aqueous solutions has been performed starting from cu(ii)-tartaric acid, cu(ii)-citric acid, cu(ii)-edta and cu(ii)-dtpa,in the presence of oxygen and at acidic ph. the photocatalytic reaction obeys first-order kinetic equation. the influence of cu(ii) on photocatalytic oxidation of organic ligands and how the various organics will affect the treatmen...

Abstract. The Ti(OiPr)4/tartaric acid diethyl ester/t-BuOOH complex (Sharpless catalyst) was successfully used for the direct asymmetric oxidation of ketones resulting in lactones from cyclobutanones; α,β-dihydroxy ketones from β-hydroxy ketones; alkyl lactone carboxylic acids from 3-alkylcyclopentane-1,2-diones; and spiro-γ-dilactone from 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)cyclopentane1,2-dione in high enantio...
