On adding dioxygen to the fully reduced laccase of the lacquer tree Rhus vemicifera, the type-1 Cu and the type-3 Cu-pair were oxidized in the ms range and an optical intermediate was observed at 360 nm At liquid helium temperatures an EPR signal was observed, which was tentatively interpreted as due to O ", as a result of its very short relaxation time and of the increase of its linewidth when the reduced laccase of the fungus Polyporus versicolor was treated with 0 A similar paramagnetic oxygen intermediate was also observed with the laccase of another lacquer tree Rhus succedanea and with ceruloplasmin. The decay of the intermediate at 25 °C (tj = 1 s at pH 5.5 with R. succedanea laccase) was accompanied by the reoxidation of the type-2 Cu >. One would expect, however, such an intermediate to be extremely reactive (See Sect. 3.3), while it was stable in tree laccase depleted of type-2 Cu(II)... 

Robustaflavone, a naturally occurring compound, is an inhibitor of hepatitis B virus replication in vitro. The natural material was isolated from the seed kernels of Rhus succedanea. To provide ready access to sufficient quantities of material for continued biological studies, as well as to provide a general route for the preparation of structural analogues, a total synthesis of robustaflavone was requested, and Zembower recently reported the first total synthesis of this compound using Suzuki coupling as a key step (Eq. (6)) [21].

Pyrolysis also has been utilized for the determination of the structure of unique natural polymers in certain lacquers such as those produced by Rhus vernicifera and Rhus succedanea [2] and utilized as surface coating for wood, porcelain, etc. in Japan. The pyrolysis products of the two lacquer films at 400° C contain respectively laccol and urushiol, and each also contains alkenes, alkanes, alkenylphenols, and alkylphenols. From these results it was possible to assign the following structure for laccol polymer ... 

Robustaflavone (64), a naturally occurring brflavonoid isolated from Rhus succedanea, was found to be a potent inhibitor of hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication in 2.2.15 cells, with an effective concentration (EC50) of 0.25 mM,...

The recovery of the sap from the tree Rhus vemicifera to obtain urushiol has been described in the classical process (ref. 184, 185) and with regard to recent developments (ref. 186). It is a totally different operation from that with Anacardium occidentale, and not unlike that in the process for natural rubber. The name derives from kiurushi, the Japanese word for sap which is a primary product of the tree. Much less of this very ancient material is now processed in the original region of Sendai, Japan and the main industry is based in China with some in Korea and Japan. In northern Vietnam and Taiwan, a source of lac is Rhus succedanea and in Thailand and Burma, Melanorrhoea usitata. 

The name laccase was first given to the enzyme by G. Bertrand (46) who studied its activity in crude form from the latex of the lac tree Rhus succedanea, and similar enzymes have been found in the latex of various other Asian lac trees...
