How does the consumption of red wine reduce heart disease? How does a plant battle an invading fungus using physical and chemical defense mechanisms? How are tannins used in leather production synthesized?
These are just a few examples that illustrate the chemical diversity and use of phenolic compounds, the topic of 'Phenolic Compound Biochemistry'.
Topics covered include nomenclature, chemical properties, biosynthesis, including an up-to-date overview of the genetics controlling phenolic metabolism, isolation and characterization of phenolic compounds, phenolics used in plant defense, and the impact of phenolics on human health. The book is written in an accessible style, and assumes only basic knowledge of organic chemistry, biochemistry and cell physiology. More than 300 chemical structures and reaction schemes illustrate the text. TOC:Preface. 1. Families of Phenolic Compounds and Means of Classification. 2. Chemical Properties of Phenolic Compounds. 3. Biosynthesis of Phenolic Compounds. 4. Isolation and Identification of Phenolic Compounds. 5. Analysis of Phenolic Compounds with Mass Spectrometry. 6. The Role of Phenols in Plant Defense. 7. Phenolic Compounds and their Effects on Human Health. Appendix. Index.
