And the article was included in Chemistry of Natural Compounds in 2021.Name: Isopropylisothiocyanate The following contents are mentioned in the article:
The interest in glucosinolate (GLS) hydrolysis products has grown due to their preventive potential against diseases by inducing a variety of physiol. functions, including antioxidant activity, enzymic regulation, apoptosis and cell cycl e control, thus inhibiting the development of various types of cancer. These are biol. inactive compounds which, when undergoing enzymic hydrolysis by β-thioglucosidase (myrosinase), produce isothiocyanates, nitriles, and thiocyanates, which act in the defense of plants against herbivores and pathogens. As these are found expressively in the Capparaceae family, the objective of the present study is to analyze the chem. composition and to evaluate the toxicol., anticholinesterase, and antioxidant potential of the essential oil of Cynophalla flexuosa (L.) J.Presl, the search for active substances of which offers a way to study the chem.-biol. contribution of the oils. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as Isopropylisothiocyanate (cas: 2253-73-8Name: Isopropylisothiocyanate).
Isopropylisothiocyanate (cas: 2253-73-8) belongs to esters. Volatile esters with characteristic odours are used in synthetic flavours, perfumes, and cosmetics. Certain volatile esters are used as solvents for lacquers, paints, and varnishes. Acyl chlorides and acid anhydrides alcoholysis is another way to produce esters. Acyl chlorides and acid anhydrides react with alcohols to produce esters. Anydrous conditions are recommended since both acyl chlorides and acid anhydrides react with water.Name: Isopropylisothiocyanate
