, p. 367 - 395 (2005)
In collaboration with Jasco Corporation we have recently developed an FDCD (fluorescence detected circular dichroic) instrument J-465, which eliminates the photoselection artifacts and efficiently collects the emitted light from the sample solution based
Unique reactivity of α-alkoxy ginkgolide lactones to nucleophilic reagents: Preparation of new lactol derivatives

It has been found that nucleophilic reagents, i.e., NaBH4, Grignard reagents, and alkyl lithium, uniquely react with the α-alkoxy- or acyloxy-lactone moieties in ginkgolide and F-seco-ginkgolides to give rise to lactol derivatives. The reaction
