Simple alcohols are found widely in nature. Ethanol is the most prominent because it is the product of fermentation, a major energy-producing pathway. 24034-73-9, formula is C20H34O, Other simple alcohols, chiefly fusel alcohols, are formed in only trace amounts. More complex alcohols however are pervasive, as manifested in sugars, some amino acids, and fatty acids. , Synthetic Route of 24034-73-9
Babarinde, Samuel Adelani;Olaniran, Oladele Abiodun;Ottun, Adebukola Taofikat;Oderinde, Abosede Elizabeth;Adeleye, Adetayo David;Ajiboye, Oludele;Dawodu, Ernest Olaolu research published 《 Chemical composition and repellent potentials of two essential oils against larger grain borer, Prostephanus truncatus (Horn.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae)》, the research content is summarized as follows. Larger grain borer {Prostephanus truncatus (Horn.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae)} is a polyphagous pest which infests timber products, cereals, legumes, dried yam and cassava chips. Its infestation causes quant. and qual. losses, leading to food insecurity and reduced income generation for farmers. Essential oils (EOs) were obtained from fresh leaves of Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf and Lantana camara Linn. via hydrodistillation using Clevenger type apparatus Each EO was assayed for repellent properties against P. truncatus using area preference methodol. while pure acetone served as control. The percentage of oil yield from C. citratus and L. camara was 0.263% and 0.221% v/w, resp. A total of 29 compounds were identified in C. citratus EO, dominated by oxygenated monoterpenes (92.58%), with citral (44.92%) and verbenol (34.97%) being the major compounds A total of 47 compounds were identified in L. camara EO, dominated by sesquiterpenes hydrocarbons (49.96%), with gamma-cadinene (21.93%) and delta-cadinene, (+)- (9.88%) being the major compounds When applied at 0.16 μL/cm2, L. camara exhibited a significantly (p < 0.05) higher repellence of 95.00, 90.00, 80.00 and 75.00%, than 85.00, 70.00, 55.00 and 60.00% observed in C. citratus at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 h after treatment, resp. The results elucidate the potentials of the EOs to prevent non-resident P. truncatus population from infesting stored products.
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.
