Application In Synthesis of 2-Hexyl-1-decanolIn 2021, Ozen, Tevfik;Demirtas, Ibrahim published 《Comparison of the chemical composition and bioactive properties of extracts prepared from the mature Turkish and Brazilian banana peels》. 《International Journal of Chemistry and Technology (Kilis, Turkey)》published the findings. The article contains the following contents:
The banana (Musa sp.) plant grows in tropical and subtropical regions. The fruit of the banana is eaten and the peel of the banana is discarded. In this study, chem. analyzes (HPLCTOF/MS ve GC-MS) and biochem. activities (antioxidant and antimicrobial) of Et acetate (Ea) and methanol/chloroform (Me/Ch) extracts prepared from banana peel (Bbp) grown in Brazil and banana peel (Tbp) grown in Turkey were investigated. Cetene, 4-hydroxybenzoic, palmitic, linoleic, stearic, gentisic and syringic acid are the most abundant compounds in the extracts The total antioxidant activity of Tbp-Ea (A0.5: 36.84 μg/mL), inhibition of lipid peroxidation of Bbp-Ea (IC50: 3.22 μg/mL), reducing power of Tbp-Me/Ch (A0.5: 4.96 μg/mL), DPPH• scavenging activity of Bbp-Ea (IC50: 8.54 μg/mL), metal chelating activity of Tbp-Ea (IC50: 16.54 μg/mL) and H2O2 scavenging activity of Tbp-Me/Ch (IC50: 0.36 μg/mL) were found the most effective. It was exhibited that extracts were effective against gramneg. and gram-pos. bacteria. In conclusion, the phytochem. and biochem. results of the TbP and Bbp extracts will contribute further pharmacol., biochem. and pharmacol. investigations.2-Hexyl-1-decanol (cas: 2425-77-6) were involved in the experimental procedure.
2-Hexyl-1-decanol(cas: 2425-77-6) is a fatty acid that is found in the essential oils of plants and has been shown to have fungicidal properties.Application In Synthesis of 2-Hexyl-1-decanol It has also been shown to inhibit the growth of Candida glabrata when used as a cationic surfactant.
