Abstract: The present invention primarily relates to a method for producing a compound of formula (I) and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof from vanillylmandelic acid and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention further relates to the simultaneous use of one or more iodide salt(s) or hydrate(s) thereof, one or more reducing agent(s), one or more inorganic and/or organic acid(s) other than phosphonic acid, and methanol and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof or an alcohol of formula (II) as defined herein and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof for converting vanillylmandelic acid and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof into a compound of formula (I) and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof or into a compound of formula (III) as defined herein and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for increasing neurogenesis and for preventing or treating diseases, disorders or conditions associated with neurodegeneration, are provided herein.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing limonene comprising or consisting of the following steps: (a) providing beta-pinene or a beta-pinene containing starting material: (b) admixing the starting material with a catalytically effective amount of a MWW-type zeolite: (C) heating the reaction mixture to a temperature in the range of between 60 and 100° C.; and optionally (d) separating the limonene or a limonene-enriched fraction from the sump.
