Journal Article
TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of several nitrile oxides, isolated from the oxidative dehydrogenation of aldoximes by chloramine-T, with vinyl acetate and acrylonitrile proceeds in better yield than if the oxides are generated in situ.
Abstract: Reaction of several nitrile oxides 2, isolated from the oxidative dehydrogenation of aldoximes by chloramine-T, with vinyl acetate and acrylonitrile proceeds in better yield than if the nitrile oxides are generated in situ. Solvent effects are also considered. All new isoxazoline products have been characterized by H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR and mass spectral data.















Journal Article
TL;DR: In this article, a new withanolide, 3a~ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-27-deoxywithaferin A (1), was isolated from the leaves of Withania sonmifera ( Solanaceae ), collected from Tamil Nadu.
Abstract: From the leaves of Withania sonmifera ( Solanaceae ), collected from Tamil Nadu, a new withanolide, 3a~ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-27-deoxywithaferin A (1) in addition to the known derivatives withaferin A (4), 2,3dihydrowithaferin A (5) 3p-methoxy-2,3-dihydrowithaferin A (2) and 27-deoxywithaferin A (3) have been isolated, and their structures elucidated on the basis of physical, chemical and spectral methods.


Journal Article
TL;DR: It is clear that plant cells provide a good source of enzymes for straightforward biotransformations and also for the synthesis of optically active molecules.
