In general, the hydroxyl group makes alcohols polar. Those groups can form hydrogen bonds to one another and to most other compounds. 24034-73-9, formula is C20H34O, Owing to the presence of the polar OH alcohols are more water-soluble than simple hydrocarbons. Methanol, ethanol, and propanol are miscible in water. Butanol, with a four-carbon chain, is moderately soluble. Reference of 24034-73-9
Olatunde, Olagoke Zacchaeus;Tian, Danian;Yong, Jianping;Lu, Canzhong research published 《 Chemical compositions of the essential oil extracted from the seeds of Garcina kola, and its biological activities》, the research content is summarized as follows. The essential oil was obtained from the seeds of Garcina kola and its compositions were investigated by GC-MS and ICP-MS, resp. 74 organic compounds and 9 trace elements beneficial to human health were confirmed in this oil. Then, the in vitro antioxidant and anticancer activities were evaluated accordingly. The results showed that this essential oil exhibited stronger antioxidant activity against DPPH radicals with the scavenging rate of 94.19% at 0.2 mg/mL, as well as potent inhibition against gastric cancer, lung cancer(A549) and Hela cell lines with the inhibitions of 96.397%±0.929, 98.005%±0.513 and 94.77±2.09 resp. at 8.3 mg/mL. While it exhibited moderate inhibition against the human breast carcinoma cells (MCF-7) with the inhibition of 59.257%±4.544 at 8.3mg/mL. In consideration of Garcina kola being consumed in Nigeria for a long time, this essential oil obtained from the Garcina kola can be used in the field of food, cosmetic or drugs.
24034-73-9, Geranylgeraniol is a diterpenoid that is hexadeca-2,6,10,14-tetraene substituted by methyl groups at positions 3, 7, 11 and 15 and a hydroxy group at position 1. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a volatile oil component and an antileishmanial agent. It is a diterpenoid and a polyprenol.
Geranylgeraniol, a precursor to geranylgeranylpyrophosphate, is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway. Geranylgeraniol has been shown to prevent bone re-absorption, inhibition of osteoclast formation, and kinase activation in vitro. When working with statins, Geranylgeraniol can reduce the toxicity without inhibiting the cholesterol-producing effects. Geranylgeraniol has been documented to counteract the effects of fluvastatin by inhibiting activation of caspase-1 and production of IL-1. Additionally Geranylgeraniol has been found to induce apoptosis in HL-60 cells.
