Ambrosic, acid

Muthusamy et al. (82) prepared a number of oxacyclic ether compounds from the tandem ylide formation-dipolar cycloaddition methodology. Their approach provides a synthetic tactic to compounds such as ambrosic acid, smitopsin, and linearol. Starting with either cyclopentane or cyclohexane templates, they prepared ylide sizes of five or six, which are trapped in an intermolecular cycloaddition reaction by the addition of DMAD. The products are isolated in good overall yield. In a second system, 2,5-disubstituted cyclohexenyl derivatives are utilized to generate the pendent ylide, then, A-phenylmaleimide is added in an intermolecular reaction, accessing highly substituted oxatricyclic derivatives such as 182 (Scheme 4.43). 

The oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-2-one ring systems form a core skeleton of many naturally existing molecules. In an approach towards guaianolide sesquiterpenes, their hydroazulenic framework has been constructed through a rhodium(II)-catalyzed reaction [82] of the a-diazo ketone 106 with DMAD to afford the oxatricyclic system 107, which forms the skeleton of ambrosic acid 108 (Scheme 33).

Figure 11.1. A flow-model scheme for treating the protein routing question. Labels refer to flow rates of carbon. The total carbon flux, into and out of the body, is 1, divided into F (for protein) and 1 - F for the remainder. The significant relevant internal fluxes are between the amino acid pool (coupled to the body protein pool), and the energy metabolism pool . The extent to which protein routing is observable in the body protein composition depends on the value ofX (See Fig. 11.2). Numbers in refer to suggested isotopic fractionations associated with a metabolic path, which are consistent with the data of the Ambrose and Norr (1993) and Tieszen and Fagre (1993) data set (see Section 4.1).

Seven diets were constructed from purified natural ingredients obtained from either C3 (beet sugar, rice starch, cottonseed oil, wood cellulose, Australian Cohuna brand casein, soy protein or wheat gluten for protein) or C4 foodwebs (cane sugar, corn starch, com oil, processed corn bran for fiber, Kenya casein for protein) supplemented with appropriate amounts of vitamins and minerals (Ambrose and Norr 1993 Table 3a). The amino acid compositions of wheat gluten and soy protein differ significantly from that of casein (Ambrose and Norr 1993).

Procedures for isolation and measurement of lipids in foods include exhaustive Soxhlet extraction with hexane or petroleum ether (AOAC, 1995 see Basic Protocol 1), chloro-form/methanol (Hanson and Olley, 1963 Ambrose, 1969), chloroform/methanol/water (Folch et al., 1957 Bligh and Dyer, 1959 see Basic Protocol 2 and Alternate Protocol 2), acid digestion followed by extraction (see Basic Protocol 4), or, for starchy material, extraction with n-propanol-water (e.g., Vasanthan and Hoover, 1992 see Basic Protocol 3). Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages and successful measurement of lipid content is often dictated by the type of sample and extraction medium employed. Commercial extraction and preparation of edible oils are explained in the literature (Williams, 1997). 

There is ample evidence that in strongly protic solvents, proteins generally exist in an unfolded configuration, resembling roughly the random-coil form of polypeptides. Thus, Ambrose and Elliott (1951) showed that insulin treated with formic acid and cast as a film exhibits a shift in the maximum of the C=0 infrared stretching frequency from 1657 cm for...
