An alkaloid of Crotalaria leschenaultii DC., previously reported as crispatine and now named crotaleschenine, has been re-investigated and shown to be (7β,8α-H,12α,13α,14α)-12β-hydroxy-1,2-didehydrocrotalane-11,15-dione.1 Spectroscopic data are presented and the stereochemistry determined by X-ray crystallography. The esterifying acid of crotaleschenine is identical with that of retusine , which is thereby determined as (1a,7β,8α-H,12α,13α,14α)-12β- hydroxycrotalane-11,15-dione.

Quinazoline Derivatives

Three new phenylhydrazones, penoxahydrazones A–C (compounds 1–3), and two new quinazolines, penoxazolones A (compound 4) and B (compound 5), with unique linkages were isolated from the fungus Penicillium oxalicum obtained from the deep sea cold seep. Their structures and relative configurations were assigned by analysis of 1D/2D NMR and mass spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations of 1, 4, and 5 were established on the basis of X-ray crystallography or ECD calculations. Compound 1 represents the first natural phenylhydrazone-bearing steroid, while compounds 2 and 3 are rarely occurring phenylhydrazone tautomers. Compounds 4 and 5 are enantiomers that feature quinazoline and cinnamic acid units. Some isolates exhibited inhibition of several marine phytoplankton species and marine-derived bacteria.

Reaction of bis(cycloocta-1,5-diene)platinum(0) with the (alkynyl)phenylsilanes Ph3SiC2But, Ph2Si(C2But)2 and PhSi(C2But)3 gives, respectively, [Pt (Ph3SiC2But)2] (1b), [Pt {Ph2Si(C2But)}]2 (2b), and [Pt {PhSi(C2But)3}]2 (4b), which contain zerovalent platinum atoms coordinated by two alkyne units. Spectroscopic data indicate that (2b) and (4b) contain two PtC4 and two SiC4 tetrahedra joined at the corners. X-Ray crystallography shows that complex (4b) is isostructural and isomorphous with the known nickel analogue, two of the alkyne units being uncoordinated; the central eight-membered ring comprising two silicon, four alkyne carbon and two platinum atoms has an approximate chair conformation. In contrast, the monomer (1b) is isostructural but not isomorphous with the analogous nickel compound (1a); in the crystal there is evidence for a weak intramolecular phenyl-phenyl interaction.

Inula oculus-christi L. (Compositae) extract was chromatographed and three sesquiterpene lactones ergolide, gaillardin and pulchellin C were isolated. The structures of these compounds were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data, and their crystal structures were defined using X-ray crystallography; the isolation of ergolide and pulchellin C is reported for the first time from this species. These three compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against MDBK, MCF7 and WEHI164 cells; ergolide and gaillardin exhibited lower and significantly different IC50 values compared with pulchellin C ( p<0.001).

The hexacarbonyl compounds of chromium, molybdenum and tungsten react with the highly nucleophilic agent Li NiPr2 and in a subsequent alkylation with (Et3O)BF4 to give the carbene complexes (CO)5M[C(N′Pr2)OEt] (1, 3, 4). In case of W(CO)6 and Mo(CO)6 the novel biscarbene complexes cis(CO)4M[C(NiPr2)OEt]2 (2, 5) are additionally obtained. Reaction conditions, properties and spectroscopic data of the new compounds are reported. The molecular structure of cis(CO)4W[C(NiPr2)OEt]2 (4) was determined by X-ray crystallography

Homology Models

The outer-membrane decahaem cytochrome MtrC is part of the transmembrane MtrCAB complex required for mineral respiration by Shewanella oneidensis. MtrC has significant sequence similarity to the paralogous decahaem cytochrome MtrF, which has been structurally solved through X-ray crystallography. This now allows for homology-based models of MtrC to be generated. The structure of these MtrC homology models contain ten bis-histidine-co-ordinated c-type haems arranged in a staggered cross through a four-domain structure. This model is consistent with current spectroscopic data and shows that the areas around haem 5 and haem 10, at the termini of an octahaem chain, are likely to have functions similar to those of the corresponding haems in MtrF. The electrostatic surfaces around haem 7, close to the β-barrels, are different in MtrF and MtrC, indicating that these haems may have different potentials and interact with substrates differently.

Acyclic Ketones

A facile procedure is developed for the three-component Mannich reactions of several heterocyclic, homocyclic, and acyclic ketones by using catalytic quantities of nano ZrO2. As a result, the starting ketones undergo rapid reactions with a variety of aromatic aldehydes and aniline derivatives at room temperature to produce stereoselectively high yields of the corresponding anti β-amino ketones. Interestingly, the catalyst could be recycled for several runs in a row without significant loss of its activity. The structure of the products was assigned based on their spectroscopic data and the anti stereoselectivity was confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

The reaction of Ga2(SO4)3·18H2O and excess 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (terpy) in MeOH / H2O leads to [Ga(OH)(SO4)(terpy)(H2O)]·H2O (1·H2O] in good yield. The structure of the complex has been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The GaIII atom in 1·H2O is 6-coordinate and ligation is provided by one terdentate terpy molecule, one monodentate sulfate, one terminal hydroxide and one terminal H2O molecule; the coodination polyhedron about the metal is described as a distorted octahedron. There is an extensive hydrogen-bonding network in the crystal structure which generates corrugated layers parallel to bc. The new complex was characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The spectroscopic data are discussed in terms of the nature of bonding

Polymerization of propene with dimethylsilylene-bridged (amidocyclopentadienyl)dichlorotitanium(IV) complexes [TiCl2{η5-1-(t-BuSiMe2N-κN)-2,3,4-Me3-5-R-C5}], where R = Me (1), H (2), Ph (3), 4-fluorophenyl (4), but-2-en-2-yl (5), and butyl (6), combined with excess methylaluminoxane revealed a moderate effect of the substituent R on the catalyst activity and the molecular weight of polypropene. The asymmetric substitution in the position adjacent to the bridging carbon atom resulted in polymer yields decreasing in the order 1 > 6 > 3 ≈ 5 > 4 > 2 while polymers with the molecular weights (Mw) close to 2.5 × 105 for 1, 3, and 4, 1.5 × 105 for 5 and 6, and 7.5 × 104 for 2 were obtained. The 13C NMR analysis of the polymers has shown that atactic polypropene is slightly enriched with syndiotactic triads for all the catalysts. Investigation of the crystal structure of 5 by X-ray crystallography revealed that the double bond in but-3-en-2-yl had shifted to an internal position to give the isomeric, but-2-en-2-yl-substituted complex. Likewise, the spectroscopic data for complex 7 prepared from the ligand containing but-3-en-1-yl substituent, indicate the absence of terminal double bond.

The crystal structure and absolute configuration of koetjapic acid were unambiguously reassigned by X-ray crystallography with strong support from NMR spectroscopic data. The acid contained 9 quaternary carbon atoms existing as an orthorhombic crystal with a space group of P21 21 21 and unit cell parameters of a = 7.6641(2), b = 14.6844(4) and c = 23.9316(6). Ring A adopted a chair conformation, ring B has an envelope conformation, whilst ring C assumed a half-chair and D displayed a chair conformation. The absolute configurations at C1 ( R), C5 ( R), C7 ( S), C10 ( S), C13 ( R), C14 ( R), C17 ( S) and C18 ( S) were assigned for the first time. The X-ray crystal of koetjapic acid was therefore reassigned as 3,4-seco-olean-4(23),12-diene-3,30-dioic acid. A plausible biogenetic synthetic pathway for compound 1 is also proposed.

Cordytropolone (1) and (−)-leptosphaerone A (2) were isolated from the culture broth of the fungus Polycephalomyces nipponicus. The structures of these two compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and from a comparison of the spectroscopic data with those reported previously. The structure of 1 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography for the first time while the leptosphaerone class (compound 2) was first isolated as its (+)-antipode from the fungus Polycephalomyces ( Cordyceps). The fermentation process was monitored weekly by High performance liquid chromatography analysis for 10 weeks. The predominant compound (1) was produced at ~0.65 mg/mg of dry extract at week 9. Compound 1 exhibited modest antipathogenic fungal activity against Collectrichum musae, Colletotrichum capsici, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium spp. TFPK301, F. spp. FOC1708, and Pestalotia spp. with percentage of mycelial growth inhibition values of 3.74 ± 0.70%, 12.86 ± 1.43%, 0.91 ± 0.56%, 5.46 ± 0.56%, 7.93 ± 0.61%, and 18.75 ± 5.24%, respectively, at 25 μg/mL.
