Components of the ether-insoluble resin glycoside fraction from the seed of Cuscuta australis

Abstract:
An ether-insoluble resin glycoside fraction was obtained from the seeds of Cuscuta australis. Identification and characterization of alkaline hydrolysis products by means of GC, FABMS, and 1H, 13C, and 2D NMR revealed the material to be composed of three new glycosidic acids, cuscutic acids A1-A3 (1-3); triglycosides with (11S)-jalapinolic or (11S)-convolvulinolic acid as the aglycon; and acetic, isobutyric, (2S)-2-methylbutyric, tiglic, and (2R,3R)-nilic acids. The resin glycoside is considered to be a complex mixture of glycosidic ester-type oligomers (up to heptamers) with a core consisting of a number of the above cuscutic acids each acylated with one or two carboxylic acid moieties.

Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.
