LIMONOIDS
Limonoids are heavily oxygenated, modified triterpenes dominant in
the plant family Meliaceae, and to a lessor extent in Rutaceae. The
latter has received considerable attention due to the bitter taste of
most limonoids; Rutaceae includes the citrus species of commerce. The
major limonoid in this family is limonin, accountable for the bitterness
of poor quality juices. Other members of the Meliaceae are far more
common in tropical flora and bring important examples of structural
diversity and impressive topography in the three dimensional display
of chemical functionality…. an untapped resource. Limonoids are
of moderate polarity, being insoluble in water; soluble in DMSO, ethanol,
toluene; insoluble in hexane.
Access to Meliaceae species in a reliable and sustainable mode is the
province of GAIA; the chemical manipulation of this remarkable group
of compounds is among our skills. Kilogram quantities are available
