The most active phenolics in Quercus sideroxyla Humb. & Bonpl. residual bark were identified and evaluated following a chromatographic fractionation. Bark powder was defatted with hexane and crude extract (CE) was obtained by extraction with aqueous acetone (70%). A liquid partition with ethyl acetate was performed to produce an organic...
The objectives of this research were to isolate and
determine the molecular structures of certain polyphenols
in Douglas-fir and red alder barks. The compounds of
interest in Douglas-fir were the lignans which are
eventually incorporated into the outer bark phlobaphenes.
Phlobaphenes are the red colored, alcohol soluble, water
insoluble phenolic...
