Quantitative correlative 1H-13C NMR has long been discussed as a potential method for quantifying the components of complex reaction mixtures. Here, we show that quantitative HMBC NMR can be applied to understand the complexity of the catalytic oxidation of glucose to glucaric acid, which is a promising bio-derived precursor to adipic acid, under aqueous aerobic conditions. It is shown through 2D NMR analysis that the product streams of this increasingly studied reaction contain lactone and dilactone derivatives of acid products, including glucaric acid, which are not observable/quantifiable using traditional chromatographic techniques. At 98% glucose conversion, total C6 lactone yield reaches 44%. Furthermore, a study of catalyst stability shows that all Pt catalysts undergo product-mediated chemical leaching. Through catalyst development studies, it is shown that sequestration of leached Pt can be achieved through use of carbon supports.

One triterpene and five triterpene glycosides, including four new compounds, have been identified in the underground parts of Glycyrrhiza bucharica, which was shown to be closely related to Glycyrrhizin-producing Glycyrrhiza species, G. uralensis, G. glabra and G. inflata, based on their chloroplast rbcL sequences. Two known compounds were identified squasapogenol and macedonoside C. The structures of four new compounds, bucharosides A, B, C, and D, were determined to be 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-22-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl squasapogenol, 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-macedonic acid, 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-squasapogenol, and 22-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl squasapogenol, respectively. Contents of these triterpene glycosides were less than 0.5% of dry weight, and no main saponin, like glycyrrhizin or macedonoside C found in other Glycyrrhiza species, was found in the underground parts of G. bucharica.

Acyl glucuronides are key metabolites for many carboxylic acid-containing drugs, notably those of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory class. In the processes of drug safety assessment and new drug development, it is essential that acyl glucuronides, if formed in vivo, should be made conveniently available for bioevaluation. We recently showed that selective acylation of allyl glucuronate is a promising method for the synthesis of these metabolites in good yield and with excellent β-anomeric selectivity. We now give fuller details of the allyl ester method and further report that benzyl glucuronate performs at least equally well in the acylation step, offering the advantage of very mild deprotection by catalytic transfer (or conventional) hydrogenation. Depending on the compatibility of other functional groups, as discussed below, this will be the method of choice for many acyl glucuronide syntheses. The value of the method is demonstrated in particular by the synthesis of several acyl glucuronides that are known metabolites of important drugs.
