Electrooxidative Functionalizations of Dehydroabietic Acid [PDF]
Abstract Dehydroabietic acid methyl ester (1) was converted into 7-acetoxydehydroabietic acid methyl ester by direct electrooxidation in acetic acid and 7-oxodehydroabietic acid methyl ester by ruthenium dioxide-mediated oxidation. Non-Kolbe type electrodecarboxylation of 1 resulted in the introduction of a double bond into the ring A of

Amber imitation? Two unusual cases of Pinus resin-coated beads in Iberian Late Prehistory (3rd and 2nd millennia BC) [PDF]
A group of beads from the artificial cave of La Molina (Lora de Estepa, Sevilla) and Cova del Gegant (Sitges, Barcelona) were made from a biogenic raw material and intentionally covered by a layer of resin.

In-feed resin acids reduce matrix metalloproteinase activity in the ileal mucosa of healthy broilers without inducing major effects on the gut microbiota [PDF]
The chicken gut is constantly exposed to harmful molecules and microorganisms which endanger the integrity of the intestinal wall. Strengthening intestinal mucosal integrity is a key target for feed additives that aim to promote intestinal health in ...

Ageing of resin from Pinus species assessed by infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Resins obtained from Pinus genus species have been widely used in very different fields throughout history. As soon as the resins are secreted, molecular changes start altering their chemical, mechanical and optical properties.

Photolysis of Abietic Acid to Dehydroabietic Acid and Hydrogen
Abstract Abietic acid, which is the terpene acid component of natural colophony, was irradiated at above 300 nm in the presence of benzophenone and a colloidal platinum catalyst. The expected product of dehydroabietic acid was formed to the extent of 81 %, hydrogen generation occurred to a negligibly small amount.
