How to form an aldehyde from an alkyne?Aldehyde:An aldehyde is an organic compound containing a carbonyl group (-CHO) bonded to at least one highly reactive and important intermediate in several chemical reactions. They are also used as solvents, perfumes, and flavoring agents....
Oxidative cleavage of a glycosidic bond by an LPMO requires reduction of the catalytic mono-copper site, from the inactive [LPMO–Cu (II)] state to the active [LPMO–Cu (I)] state, by an electron donor, typically a small molecule reductant, such as ascorbate or gallic acid. The reduc...
These specialized metabolites, as its name suggest, are derived from the shikimic acid pathway. This pathway started with the condensation of phosphoenolpyruvate and erythrose 4-phosphate to give shikimic acid, and its final product is chorismate, which is the precursor of the synthesis for the amin...

These compounds, including coumaric, ferulic and sinapic acids are reduced to the corresponding alcohols via aldehyde intermediates, namely coumaryl, coniferyl and sinapyl alcohol, collectively termed monolignols. Scheme 1. Aromatic amino acid biosynthesis from shikimate and phenyl-alanine derivatives of ...
