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...

Photosynthesis inhibition data were determined with thylakoids o f the green alga Chlamy­ domonas reinhardtii on twenty-two 2-bromo-4-nitro-6-alkyland 2,4-dinitro-6-alkyl-phenols. Wild type and five different mutants o f the algae were employed with defined changes in the psbA gene and a single amino acid substitution in the herbicide binding protein D 1 o f photo­ system II. Their response to ...

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...

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...

trimethylsilylation of a variety of alcohols and phenols, in the presence of silica chloride, using hexamethyldisilazane (hmds) in solution and under solvent-free conditions is reported. trimethylsilyl ethers were formed in excellent yields both for aliphatic alcohols and phenols without having an electron-withdrawing group. in addition, sio2-cl can be recovered and reused after drying.

This study was aimed at determining the effect, if any, that steric factors may have on the diastereoselectivity in the spiroannulation of simple phenols. A series of phenols bearing different size substituents ortho to the phenolic hydroxyl were synthesized and spiroannulated to the corresponding spiroethers in good to excellent yields (76-94%). However, the diastereoselectivity of the reactio...

Chiral anion phase-transfer catalysis has enabled the direct and highly enantioselective fluorinative dearomatization of phenols catalyzed by a BINOL-derived phosphate. The process efficiently transforms simple, readily available phenols into fluorinated chiral small molecules bearing reactive functionality under ambient reaction conditions with high enantioselectivity. The close relationship o...
