Even outside the botanical arena there are challenges, such as identifying whether a single entity ingredient is natural or synthetic, isomerically pure or a racemate, and so forth.
1) Heptene Hydrochloride - An Exceptionally Versatile Synthon for Carbocyclic Nucleosides and Ionophores; Highly Chemoselective Reduction of 1,4:3, 6-Dianhydro-D-Glucitol-2, 5-Di-Nitrate with Titanium (III) Tetrahydroborates - Efficient Synthesis of Isomerically Pure 1,4:3, 6-Dianhydro-D-Glucitol-2-and 5-Nitrates; Synthesis of Higher Sugars.
More importantly (and perhaps of medicolegal significance), the biological fate of a racemic mixture differs (at least in lab rats) from that of isomerically pure L-theanine (Chirality, 2005).
