- Dammarane triterpenoids from Carnauba, Copernicia prunifera (Miller) H. E. Moore (Arecaceae), wax
-
Phytochemical investigation from carnauba (Copernicia prunifera) wax led to the identification of sixteen dammarane–type triterpenes, including thirteen new characterized as: (24R*)-methyldammara-20,25-dien-3α-ol and a mixture of alkyl (24R*)-methyldammar-25-en-20-ol-3β-carboxylates, together with three previously described triterpenes: carnaubadiol, (24R*)-methyldammara-20,25-dien-3β-ol and (24R*)-24-methyldammara-20,25-dien-3-one. Moreover, four fatty alcohols (eicosanol, docosanol, tetracosanol and hexacosanol) as well as four sterols (cholesterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, and sitosterol) were also obtained. These compounds were isolated using classical chromatographic methods and their structures were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods.

- A New Synthesis of Long Chain Acid Esters and Carbinols
-
A versatile synthesis of difficulty accessible long chain acid esters and carbinols is described.The synthesis involves acylations at 2- and 5-positions of thiophene.Thioketalation of the resulting ketoesters followed by Raney nickel desulfurization yield acid esters which on LAH reduction give the corresponding carbinols.
