Sporopollenin was isolated and purified from pollen of the gymnospermae Tor
reya californica using an enzymatic treatment followed by extraction with o
rganic solvents. H-1-NMR (1D and 2D) was used for analysis of this biopolym
er and reveals the presence of three phenolic compounds. Comparison with th
e analysis of sporopollenin from the angiospermae Typha angustifolia L. sho
ws high similarity between the aromatic compounds.
