(+)-Syringaresinol
(+)-syringaresinol is a member of the class of compounds known as furanoid lignans. Furanoid lignans are lignans with a structure that contains either a tetrahydrofuran ring, a furan ring, or a furofuan ring system, that arises from the joining of the two phenylpropanoid units (+)-syringaresinol is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (+)-syringaresinol can be found in a number of food items such as radish (variety), grape wine, oat, and ginkgo nuts, which makes (+)-syringaresinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Syringaresinol
(+)-syringaresinol is the (7alpha,7alpha,8alpha,8alpha)-stereoisomer of syringaresinol. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent. It is an enantiomer of a (-)-syringaresinol. (+)-Syringaresinol is a natural product found in Dracaena draco, Diospyros eriantha, and other organisms with data available. See also: Acai fruit pulp (part of). The (7alpha,7alpha,8alpha,8alpha)-stereoisomer of syringaresinol.
