Matiresinoliin

Matiresinoliin is a fictional organic compound created for educational and illustrative purposes to exemplify resin-derived natural products. It does not appear in major public chemical databases and is not described in real-world peer-reviewed literature.

In the fictional depictions, matiresinoliin is a polyphenolic oligomer believed to originate from resin-rich plants. The imagined structure features multiple phenolic rings linked by carbon–carbon bonds, with several hydroxyl groups, giving a high degree of polarity and a tendency to form hydrogen-bond networks. Because it is fictional, there is no canonical structural formula, and different visualizations may present varying connectivity or stereochemistry.

Occurrence and isolation in the imagined scenario place matiresinoliin in the resin of a fictitious tree species, Xylor resinosa. Isolation would follow standard natural-product procedures, including solvent extraction, chromatographic separation (such as column chromatography), and spectroscopic characterization (nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry) to establish a provisional structure and purity.

Properties commonly described for matiresinoliin include a resin-like, viscous solid with solubility in a range of organic solvents and stability under ordinary conditions, albeit with a susceptibility to oxidation. In teaching contexts, the compound serves to illustrate challenges in isolating high-molecular-weight polyphenolics from plant resins, and to demonstrate interpretation of spectroscopic data for complex oligomers. It is not associated with established pharmacological or industrial applications in real-world practice.
