Abstract: A new process for extracting and purifying glucosinolates from plant material, preferably broccoli sprouts or seeds is described. An alcoholic extract is adsorbed onto a basic resin and eluted with ammonia. Optionally, the alcoholic extract is passed through an ion-exchange column containing acidic resin prior to the adsorption/elution step.

Abstract: Novel catalytic processes for the production of carnosol from carnosic acid are presented. The carnosic acid may be in pure form, in an impure form, part of a plant extract, or may be present in rosemary needles. The catalyst may be iron, iron salts, a minor amount of water, rosemary needles, or a mixture thereof.
