Methods The determination was achieved by using a Zorbax ODS C18 analytical column (250 mm×4.6 mm ID, 5 μm) at isocratic elution of 1% aqueous acetic acid and acetonitrile (1:1) with diode-array detection (318 nm). The calibration curve of coniferyl femlate showed good linearity (r^2 = 0.9995) within the test range. Results The developed method showed good precision with intra- and inter-day variations of 0.22% - 1.16% and 0.86% - 2.62% between the levels of 0.380 - 0.038 mg·mL^-1, respectively. The repeatability represented as RSD of coniferyl femlate was less than 2.7% for three levels (0.2 - 1.0 g of Angelica sinensis), and the recovery was 105.3% with RSD of 3.2%. Conclusion The validated method was successfully applied to quantify coniferyl femlate in 12 samples of Danggui and Chuanxiong.展开更多
The reduction of 2,3-epoxy alcohol, prepared from the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, with the system of Ph3P, iodine, iwhdazole, 2,6-lutidine and water in Et2O/CH3CN,gives a chiral secondary allylic alcohol in 94% ...The reduction of 2,3-epoxy alcohol, prepared from the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, with the system of Ph3P, iodine, iwhdazole, 2,6-lutidine and water in Et2O/CH3CN,gives a chiral secondary allylic alcohol in 94% yield and 92% e.e.. Using this reaction as the key step, we synthesized (-)-coniferyl alcohol derivative 1 steding from the geraniol through nine steps in an overall yield of 39%.展开更多
