What is Tulipalin A?
Description
Tulipalin A is an unsubstituted -methylene-butyrolaetone eontained in the sap of tulips, Alstroemeria spp. (Peruvian lily) and Erythronium (dog tooth violet, fawn-lily). Tulipalin B seems to have a weak capacities to sensitize.
Chemical properties
clear colourless to light yellow or slightly pink
The Uses of Tulipalin A
Very reactive Michael-acceptor; the α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone ring system exists in many natural products of biological interest
The Uses of Tulipalin A
Allergen in the Liliaeeae family of plants to whieh speeies such as Tulip, Alstromeria, Erythronium dens canis and americanum belong.
The Uses of Tulipalin A
α-Methylene-γ-butyrolactone (Tulipane) was used to develop optically active spiro-[butyrolactone-pyrrolidine] via Cu(I)-catalyzed exo-selective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides.
Definition
ChEBI: A butan-4-olide having a methylene group at the 3-position.
Contact allergens
Tulipalin A is the unsubstituted a-methylene-g-butyrolactone contained in the sap of damaged tulips (Liliaceae family) and Alstroemeria (Alstroemeriaceae family). Tulipalin B, due to hydrolysis of tuliposide B, seems to have a weak sensitizing capacity.
