dc.description.abstractThe study of the genus populus is thought to have begun with Braconnot's isolation of the glycosides salicin (1) and populin (11) from the bark of Populus alba (1). Later workers showed these glycosides to be present in nine other species of poplar, along with a number of other com-mon plant constituents such as chrysin (III)I techtochrysin(IV), and ericin CV) (2). In spite of the fact that interest in the genus Populus has lasted nearly one hundred and thirty years, investigations into the extractives from Populus tremuloi-des Michx. and Populs tremula L. (the North American and European aspens respectively) have not been extensive. All attention in these hardwoods has been directed mainly towards the lignin content and structure. Two recent papers by Pearl and co-workers (3, 4) deal with the hydrolysis of the lignin or lignans present in the wood, but not with the chemistry of the extraneous compounds. The work carried out on the extractives from the two species of aspen is summarized below.en_US
