Mimosa

We used a SUN SPARCstation with commercially available image processing software (AGFA Mimosa and Musica). The images were treated for visual inspection applying the Musica algorithm full force /3/. 

Vegetable-tanning materials in commercial quantities come from many different countries. Quebracho is a principal tanning material from South America. Wattie or Mimosa is suppHed from several African sources. India and other Asian countries supply a variety of materials including Myrabolans, Gall Nuts, and Tara Pods (3). 

More recently, a modification of the system described by Kreibich has been used extensively in industry with good success. Part A of the adhesive is again a standard phenol-resorcinol-formaldehyde (PRF) cold-setting adhesive, with powder hardener added at its standard pH. Part B can be either the same PRF adhesive with no hardener and the pH adjusted to 12, or a 50 to 55% tannin extract solution at a pH of 12-13, provided that the tannin is of the condensed or flavonoid type, such as mimosa, quebracho, or pine bark extract, with no hardener [118,135-137], The results obtained with these two systems are good and the resin not only has all the advantages desired but also the use of vegetable tannins and the halving of the resorcinol content makes the system considerably cheaper [118,135-137]. 

Mimosine, C8H30O4N2, was isolated by Renz from Mimosa pudica L. and Leuccena glauca Benth. It has m.p. 231° dec) [a] , °-21° (H2O) and yields a copper salt, C8H8O4N2, Cu, 2II2O. Nienburg and Taubock ... 

It has become customary to call the principal members of this group the lupin alkaloids, but in view of their wide distribution in the Papilionaceae, a better title is that suggested above, since they appear to be the characteristic alkaloids of this leguminous sub-family. This is not the only type of alkaloid found in the Leguminosae other types occur, e.g., in Acacia (p. 631), Crotalaria (p. 601), Erythrina (p. 386), Mimosa (p. 4) and Pentaclethra (p. 776).

The highly branched GaM of Mimosa seeds, isolated by a scaled-up process [186] at a yield of 20% of seed weight, showed a Man Gal ratio of 1.1 1 and structural features of the gum obtained on a laboratory scale [ 183]. Based on C-NMR spectroscopy of GaM from Cassia angustifolia [179], with a Man Gal ratio of 2.9 1, a blockwise pattern of the galactosyl branches was suggested.

As part of a study of the secondary chemistry of members of Cistus (the rock-rose) in France, Robles and Garzino (1998) examined the essential oil of C albidus L. Plants were sampled from two areas in Provence characterized by different soil types, calcareous sites west of Marseille, and siliceous sites near Pierrefeu-du-Var and Bormes les Mimosas (PF and BM, respectively, in Fig. 2.23), which lie about 60 km and 80 km to the east, respectively, in the Massif les Maures. Regardless of the soil type, a-zingiberene [88] (Fig. 2.24) was the dominant component. Concentrations of other major components of the plants varied between the two soil types, as summarized in Table 2.6. Many other compounds were present in lesser amounts, but varied little between the two areas. A more recent paper by the same workers (Robles and Garzino, 2000) described an analysis of C. monspeliensis L. leaf oils, the results of which are summarized in Table 2.7.

For our experiment we will be using Mimosa hostilis root-bark to provide a very pure product of NN-DMT without the over powering influence of 5-MeO-DMT or the negative side effects of 5-OH-DMT. For a solvent we will be using common naphtha. Notes on adaptations for chemicals and other variations of this process are described as well. The following is a list of materials ...

Grind the plant material to a fine powder. The finer ground the material the better your yields will be. The best technique to pulverize and rupture the cell structure of any plant material is to repeatedly freeze and thaw it over and over again. An example of a plant requiring this treatment is Phalaris arundinacea, a strong and limber grass. Mimosa hostilis root-bark is easily pulverized to a fine powder in a blender, releasing a pink haze. 

L-Djenkolic acid was identified as a precursor for CS2 formation in Mimosa pudica, undergoing hydrolysis with a S-alkylcysteine lyase. The actual... 

In structural terms, djenkolic has two units of L-cysteine joined through a CH2 group linked to sulfur atoms. It has also been found in seeds of Albizzia lophanta and Parkia speciosa32 and, as noted earlier, is the source of CS2 in Mimosa pudica (Section 11.1.2.2.2). An enzyme in A. lophanta seeds converted djenkolic acid to an unstable material with a leek-like odor, methylene dithiol 39.92 This was presumably an elimination of aminoacrylic acid 28 via intermediates 37 and 38 (Scheme 13). The methylene dithiol decomposed to H2S and possibly, thioformaldehyde, CH2S the latter might be a source for polysulfides.

Contradictory opinions have been referred to in the literature particularly on the nature of the iron-tarmate and its interaction with the rusted steel due to the diversity of the material used in different studies. Studies have included the use of tannic acid [7-10], gallic acid [11], oak tannin [12, 13], pine tannin [14] and mimosa tannin [15]. In order to establish the correlation between the ferric-taimate formation and the low inhibition efficiency observed at high pH from the electrochemical studies, phase transformations of pre-rusted steels in the presence of tannins were evaluated. In this work the quantum chemical calculations are conducted to analyse the relationship between the molecular stracture and properties of ferric-taimate complex and its inhibitory mechanism.
