Kanchi Sõsan (? – 606 B.C.) Acknowledgement This doctoral thesis was elaborated at the European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines & HealthCare (EDQM) in Strasbourg (France) and was guided and supervised by Prof. Dr. Ulrike Holzgrabe to whom I would like to express my warmest thanks for the opportunity to work on these interesting subjects, for her very efficient guidance, support and many fruitful discussions as well as for the time devoted to this thesis. Moreover, I thank the Director of the European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines and Healthcare (EDQM), Dr. Susanne Keitel, and the Head of the EDQM Laboratory Department, Dr. Andrea Lodi, for offering the possibility of using the facilities and technical resources of the EDQM without which the practical conduct of the work would not have been possible. My special thanks and high regards also to Mr. Cees-Jan Nap who assisted in the technical conduct of the work and who also acted as a tireless, critical and creative partner in many discussions we had around the subject. Concerning the comparative study of possible detection method for alanine I would like to express my thanks to Tanja Beyer for her collaboration and contribution in the field of NMR. I am also very thankful to Prof. Dr. emeritus Jos Hoogmartens and Prof. Dr. Erwin Adams (both University of Leuven, Belgium) for the provision of the streptomycin sulfate samples and to Nathalie Kunz for her contributions to the corresponding lab work. Last but not least I would like to express my special gratitude to my wife Anke, who always backed me up and provided unreserved support, especially in difficult moments (and there were many!). This thesis is dedicated to my children Celine and Nicolai, who had to relinquish their father during countless evenings and weekends and who would have liked to play with him instead of seeing him sitting in front of a computer screen during holidays.

  • Update of the Inventory of Ingredients Employed in Cosmetic Products
    SCCNFP/0389/00 Final THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE ON COSMETIC PRODUCTS AND NON-FOOD PRODUCTS INTENDED FOR CONSUMERS OPINION CONCERNING ST THE 1 UPDATE OF THE INVENTORY OF INGREDIENTS EMPLOYED IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS SECTION II: PERFUME AND AROMATIC RAW MATERIALS Adopted by the SCCNFP during the plenary session of 24 October 2000 1 1- Preamble Article 5a of the Cosmetics Directive 76/768/EEC stipulates that “the Commission shall compile an inventory of ingredients employed in cosmetic products …shall publish the inventory and shall update it periodically”. Accordingly Commission Decision 96/335/EEC of 8 May 1996 established the inventory and a common nomenclature of ingredients employed in cosmetic products. Furthermore the Cosmetics Directive specifies in the same Article 5a that the inventory is compiled “on the basis in particular of information supplied by the industry concerned”, and in its Article 8 that the SCCNFP must be consulted prior to any amendments to the current inventory. The task of the SCCNFP was elucidated by a mandate issued by the responsible service of the European Commission (SCCNFP/1891/98) which indicates that the SCCNFP shall act as a resource of scientific expertise to the European Commission, in terms of advising on the: 1. Medical and professional expectations and requirements of the Inventory. 2. Scientific accuracy and validity of proposed entries. 3. Outstanding needs of the existing text/proposed improvements in subsequent updates. In order to fulfil its work, scientifically based, the SCCNFP met experts from European Industry and worked in collaboration with the JRC (Joint Research Centre) of the Commission. The SCCNFP wishes to acknowledge in particular the co-operation of EFFA (European Flavour and Fragrance Association) and its scientific experts in establishing the 1st Update of Section II of the Inventory.

  • Condensation of Crotonic and Tiglic Acids with Aldehydes and Ketones
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Paul Robert Johnson for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry presented on November 18, 1982. Title: Condensation of Crotonic and Tiglic Acids with Aldehydes and Ketones Abstract approved:Redacted for Privacy James D. White 3,3-Dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylpropionaldehyde was prepared from isobutyr- aldehyde and formaldehyde in four steps. Heptanal, benzaldehyde, iso- butyraldehyde, 3,3-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylpropionaldehyde, acetone, and cyclopentanone were each condensed with the dianions of crotonic acid and tiglic acid at -78°C, 25°C, and 65°C, and the proportions of the a and y condensation products were determined. The results indicated that the proportions of a and y condensation products are dependent on the steric size of the aldehyde or ketone, on the presence of a methyl substituent at the a carbon of the acid, on the reaction temperature, and on the duration of the reaction.A mechanism, which involves reversible formation of the a product and recombination to the y product is proposed. A required precursor to boromycin, 7,7-dimethoxy- 5-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylheptanoic acid lactone was prepared by con- densing 3,3-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylpropionaldehyde with the dianion of tiglic acid to give 7,7-dimethoxy-5-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethy1-2- heptenoic acid. This acid was hydrogenated and lactonized to give the corresponding S-lactone.
