Chakravarti, R. N.; Dasgupta, B. published an article in 1955, the title of the article was Structure of aegelin.Computed Properties of 456-12-2 And the article contains the following content:
cf. C.A. 47, 10544g. Analysis showed the formula of aegelin (I) to be C18H19ON3; it is neutral with one OMe and one OH but no NMe or CMe. Oxidation (C.A. 43, 1386i) gave aegelone (II), C18H17O3N, m. 159-60° and hydrogenation (PtO2 in HOAc) gave dihydroaegelin (III). Similarly, hydrogenation of II afforded dihydroaegelone (IV), m. 126-7°. Hydrolysis (H2O-EtOH-HCl) of I gave NH3, PhCH:CHCO2H (and its Et ester) and a little p-MeOC6H4CHO. The following structures are proposed: p-MeOC6H4CH(OH)CH2NHCOCH:CHPh for I, p-MeOC6H4COCH2NHCOCH:CHPh for II, p-MeOC6H4CH(OH)CH2NHCO(CH2)2Ph for III, and p-MeOC6H4COCH2NHCO(CH2)2Ph for IV. These structures have been confirmed by the alk. condensation of p-MeOC6H4CH(OH)CH2NH2 or p-MeOC6H4COCH2NH2 with PhCH:CHCOCl or Ph(CH2)2COCl. The products were identified by mixed m.p. The ultraviolet absorption curves of natural and synthetic I are identical. The experimental process involved the reaction of N-(2-Hydroxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl)cinnamamide(cas: 456-12-2).Computed Properties of 456-12-2
N-(2-Hydroxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl)cinnamamide(cas:456-12-2) belongs to amides. Amides are pervasive in nature and technology. Proteins and important plastics like Nylons, Aramid, Twaron, and Kevlar are polymers whose units are connected by amide groups (polyamides); these linkages are easily formed, confer structural rigidity, and resist hydrolysis.
