... for the analysis of cannabinoids in bio-matrices are continually improved to achieve best possible sensitivity in their detection and accurate quantification. It has been well documented that CBD cyclizes to Δ9-THC and Δ9-THC isomerizes to Δ8-THC under acidic conditions by means of a Lewis-acid-catalyzed process, causing difficulty in accurate quantification of Δ9-THC in the presence of CBD, of CB ...
... A metal-free method for the formylation/acylation of indoles and β-carbolines with (NH₄)₂S₂O₈ via direct decarboxylative cross-coupling of α-oxo/ketoacids in moderate to good yields is described. The reaction occurs between ambient temperature and 40 °C under mild reaction conditions with commercially available starting materials. This methodology can be expanded to some biologically active indole ...
... The xenicane-type diterpene 13-epi-9-deacetylxenicin (1) was isolated from polar extract of the soft coral Asterospicularia laurae.

Eleven acylation products of 13-epi-9-deacetylxenicin were prepared: 13-epi-9-O-p-anisoylxenicin ( ...
... Aimed at exploring the impact of fatty acid side chains on the anthocyanins, n-valeric acid, n-decanoic acid and myristic acid were used to grafting onto the blueberry anthocyanins, and the acylating degree value of the of n-valeric acid acylated anthocyanins (Va-An), n-decanoic acid acylated anthocyanins (De-An) and myristic acid acylated anthocyanins (My-An) reached 6.43 %, 7.56% and 8.38 %, res ...
... Anthocyanins are extensively used as natural non-toxic compounds in the food industry due to their unique biological properties. However, the instability of anthocyanins greatly affects their industrial application. Studies related to acylated anthocyanins with higher stability and increased solubility in organic solvents have shown that the acylation of anthocyanins can improve the stability and ...
... Friedel-Crafts acylation of phenolic compounds with carboxylic acids catalyzed by Brønsted-acid zeolites is an interesting reaction that could find application in the production of fuels and chemicals from renewable feedstocks. The mechanism of direct acylation of m-cresol with acetic acid over protonic zeolites and the role that the confining environment may have on reaction rate and product sele ...

Abstract:
... Acyl chloride is an important functional group in acylation reactions, though its compounds are difficult to store and transport due to their high reactivity. In this research, phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole is introduced into an acyl chloride agent of TPEPCl to enhance the stability via the delocalization effect. Meanwhile, rarely reported acyl chloride crystals have been achieved which could furthe ...

Abstract:
... The design and facile preparation of ionic liquids (ILs)-functionalized polymer materials is a hot research topic due to their potential wide applications. Herein, taking the reaction advantage of a cyclic anhydride with an alcoholic compound to atom-economically generate a carboxyl ester pending a carboxylic acid moiety, porous organic framework (POF) materials pending carboxylic acids and imidaz ...
... The processes of the biocatalytic acylation of 1-methyl-5-mercapto-1,2,3,4-tetrazolil-7-amino-cephalosporanic acid (7-TMCA) and 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA) by methyl ester of mandelic acid (MEMA) were optimized with an immobilized cephalosporin-acid synthetase as the biocatalyst. Under optimized conditions in water-organic medium containing 43% (vol/vol) of ethylene glycol at 30°С with a s ...
... In this work, ring-like anhydrides (C4, C5, and C6) with different sizes and succinic anhydrides (C4, C10, C12, C14, and C16) with different side chain lengths were used to modify bovine bone gelatin (BBG) and cold-water fish skin gelatin (CFG), and the effect of acylated gelatins on fish oil-loaded emulsions stability was explored. The results showed that the degree of N-acylation decreased with ...
... Enzymatic acylation of anthocyanin with fatty acid improves its lipophilic solubility and application potential. Nevertheless, evaluation of functional properties of product is premise for application. This study investigated the antimicrobial potential and the underlying mechanisms of an acylated anthocyanin, namely, cyanidin-3-O-glucoside–lauric acid ester (C3G-LA), to provide guidelines for its ...
... Seven new hexasaccharide resin glycosides, named calysepins I–VII (1–7), with 27-membered rings, were obtained from the aerial parts of Calystegia sepium. Their structures with absolute configuration were established on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation analysis and the use of chemical methods. They were defined as hexasaccharides composed of one d-quinovose, four d-glucose, and one l ...
... Adaptation of cellular function with the nutrient environment is essential for survival. Failure to adapt can lead to cell death and/or disease. Indeed, energy metabolism alterations are a major contributing factor for many pathologies, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. In particular, a primary characteristic of cancer cells is altered metabolism that promotes survival and pr ...
... Pistacia chinensis is a tree species with colorful leaves and great ornamental value. The molecular mechanism of its anthocyanin biosynthesis has been described from the transcriptional level. However, the type of anthocyanin cannot be obtained from the transcription level, which leads to the ambiguity of anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway. In this study, the pathway of anthocyanin biosynthesis was ...

... Kaolin is a mineral composed of hydrated aluminum silicates, clayey and with high bioavailability. The choice of this mineral as immobilization matrix took into account these aspects mentioned above and its high surface area conducive to enzymatic immobilization, containing many OH⁻ binding groups on its surface. Subsequently, the kaolin was functionalized with carboxymethylcellulose and polyethyl ...
... Picrorhiza kurroa, a hepatoprotective Himalayan medicinal herb contains a variety of iridoid glycosides mainly present in stolons and roots, contributing to several medicinal properties. However, off late the herb has been declared as endangered, therefore, warranting alternate production routes for those iridoid glycosides. Catalpol, the major intermediary compound, is transformed into several ir ...

Abstract:
... Comb-like copolymers are usually structured by grafting polymeric side chains onto main polymer chain. There are few reports of comb-on-comb polymers in which dense secondary side chains are grafted onto primary side chain. In this work, we synthesized comb polymers with grafted-on-graft side chains (c-PEI-g-Acyl) via an effective acylation reaction of comb polymers possessing polyethyleneimine (P ...
... We report the de novo asymmetric synthesis of the 3,6-dideoxy sugars abequose, paratose, and tyvelose from 2-acetylfuran. Conversion of this readily available ketone to a pyranone derivative was followed by transformation to either an α- or β-glycoside via diasteroselective acylation. Michael addition at C2 controlled primarily by the C1 configuration in the glycoside produced 3,6-dideoxy-4-keto s ...
