Total synthesis of phorboxazole A

Creator:: Lee, Tae Hee
Abstract:: The total synthesis of a highly potent cytotoxic marine natural product, phorboxazole A, is described. Both a palladium(II)-mediated and a palladium(II)-catalyzed intramolecular alkoxycarbonylation were used as key steps for the preparation of the two cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyran rings (C22-C26 and C11-C15) of phorboxazole A.

Within the soft wheat class, genotypes with consistently softer grains than common soft wheat are considered to be 'extra-soft'. In addition, 'extra-soft' wheats have greater BFY than common soft...

Studies in cereal science : arabinoxylans, glutenins, and their interactions; determining optimum water addition in noodle doughs; and quality and nutritional traits in a hard x soft wheat cross

Creator:: Kongraksawech, Teepakorn
Abstract:: The major components of wheat flour are keys to its functionality in processing and product quality. The major components, other than the lipids, are polymers: starch, protein, and non-starchy polysaccharides (NSP). In wheat NSP are primarily arabinoxylans (AX). These components are compartmentalized in the grain but are forced into close...
