“…The melting point obtained for these crystals was 261-262°C. In another research, Fahim et al [43] determined the melting point of isolated xylopic acid as 265 -266°C. The melting points obtained in these two separate studies for xylopic acid are in much agreement with that obtained by Ekong and Ogan (259-261°C) as compared to the melting point obtained by Soh et al [13] (230-232°C).…”

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Xylopia aethiopica or Ethiopian pepper is a plant that thrives in most of the evergreen rain forests of tropical and subtropical Africa, and it is currently grown most prominently in Ghana as a crop. Almost all parts of Xylopia aethiopica possess great medicinal values in traditional medicine. In most parts of Africa, it is used in the treatment of cough, rheumatism, dysentery, malaria, uterine fibroid, boils, and wounds among others. This review summarizes published data on phytochemistry, toxicological properties, Ethnopharmacological and other uses of Xylopia aethiopica, and aims at providing an up-to-date detail that should constitute baseline information for future research on the plant. Materials and Methods: Google Scholar, Scifinder® and PubMed were the electronic databases used to search for and filter published research on Xylopia aethiopica. Results: The various parts of Xylopia aethiopica possess a wide diversity of phytochemicals. A detailed description of only a few of these phytochemicals i.e. essential oils, alkaloids and

As already extensively discussed in Part I of this series, the ‘climax’ of the studies at the ETH on the synthesis of corrins was reached with the conception and experimental realization of the corrin synthesis via a final ring closure between rings A and D by the photochemical A/D‐secocorrin→corrin cycloisomerization. As it was the case for the ‘old corrin synthesis’, described in Part IV of this series [4], the ‘new synthesis’ was first explored in a model system, before it became the antetype of the photochemical variant of the synthesis of vitamin B12.
