According to the IUPAC definition of a hemiacetal, the R 1 and R 2 groups may or may not be hydrogen. In a hemiketal, both of these R-groups must not be hydrogen. Thus, hemiketals are regarded as a subclass of hemiacetals. [1] The prefix hemi, meaning half, refers to the one alcohol added to the carbonyl group.
Generic structure of acetals. In organic chemistry, an acetal is a functional group with the connectivity R 2 C(OR') 2. Here, the R groups can be organic fragments (a carbon atom, with arbitrary other atoms attached to that) or hydrogen, while the R' groups must be organic fragments not hydrogen. The two R' groups can be equivalent to each ...
Hemithioacetal functional group. In organic chemistry, hemithioacetals (or thiohemiacetals) are organosulfur compounds with the general formula R−CH(−OH)−SR’.They are the sulfur analogues of the acetals, R−CH(−OH)−OR’, with an oxygen atom replaced by sulfur (as implied by the thio-prefix).
The European Parliament registered cinnamyl acetate as both a flavouring substance and a cosmetic compound in 1996. [14] [15] The Joint (FAO/WHO) Expert Committee on Food Additives described in 2000 that “the substance does not present a safety concern at current levels of intake when used as a flavouring agent”.

Cinnamyl alcohol or styron [2] is an organic compound that is found in esterified form in storax, Balsam of Peru, and cinnamon leaves. It forms a white crystalline solid when pure, or a yellow oil when even slightly impure.
In organic chemistry, an acetyl group is a functional group denoted by the chemical formula −COCH 3 and the structure −C(=O)−CH 3.It is sometimes represented by the symbol Ac [5] [6] (not to be confused with the element actinium).

[9] [10] Several forms of glucan synthase from CSLF and CSLH have been identified. [9] [10] All of them are responsible for addition of glucose to the backbone and all are capable of producing both β1-3 and β1-4 linkages, however, it is unknown how much each specific enzyme contributes to the distribution of β1-3 and β1-4 linkages.
