Carpinus

Acerpseudoplatanus, Carpinus betulus, Fagus sylvatica Pezicula spp. mycorrhizin A 67, 246... 

Most of the members of this family are found in the northern hemisphere. Several are known for excellent hardwood (e.g., birch) as well as edible nuts (e.g., hazelnuts, filberts). Carpinus is sometimes placed in a family of its own as is Corylus (see Corylaceae). 

Positive alkaloid- tests have been reported for two species of Alnus and one of Belula. Of 44 samples tested here the following positive results were obtained Alnus glabrata (1/5), A. rhombifotia, A. rubra, Belula papyifera, Carpinus japonica. 

This is a north temperate zone family, chiefly east Asian. It is usually included in (he Betulaceae, to which it is closely related. Alkaloids are not known. In this study, six species of Carpinus were alkaloid-negative C. caroliniana, C.japonica, C. kawakamii, C. minutiserrata, C. rankanensis, C. tropicalis.

Id(a)eln (idein, 3-/3-D-galactopyranosyloxy-3, 4, 5,7-tetrahydroxyflavylium). C2lH2 0, Mr 449.39. The cyanidin glycoside I. belongs to the anthocyanins and occurs in cranberries (Vaccinium vitis-idaea, Ericaceae) and apples (Malus sylvestris, Rosaceae) as well as in the leaves of hornbeam (Carpinus betulus, Betulaceae). 

Leaf alcohol was first isolated from hornbeam leaves Carpinus betulus), although it can be found in the leaves of many plants. Diluted, it smells of freshly cut grass and green leaves, and is thus used in perfumery as the embodiment of the green scents. It is accessible synthetically from but-l-yne and ethylene oxide.
