Abstract A potent antifungal fusicoccane dehydroxypericonicin A (1) was isolated from Roussoella sp. along with known allantofuranone (2). The relative structure of 1 was fully elucidated by NMR spectroscopic manner. The suggested relative structure was confirmed by DFT (density functional theory)-based 13C NMR chemical shift calculations. The absolute configuration was investigated by a spectral comparison of the experimental ECD (electronic circular dichroism) spectrum with that based on the DFT calculations.

Benzylsulfanyl-triazolyl-indole scaffold was synthesized through coupling of 4-amino-5-(1H-indol-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazol-3(2H)-thione and benzyl bromide in EtOH under basic conditions (K2CO3). The benzylation direction was deduced from the 13C NMR signal found at 35.09 ppm, assigned for the methylene carbon of the benzyl group, this value indicates that the benzyl group attacks sulfur, not nitrogen. 1H NMR, 13C NMR, COSY, HMQC, HRMS and X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis were used for structure assignment. The desired compound accomplished in good yield. Hirshfeld analysis revealed the importance of the short N...H (1.994–2.595 Ǻ), S…H (2.282 Ǻ) and C…H (2.670 Ǻ) contacts as well as the weak π-π stacking interactions in the molecular packing of benzylthio-triazolyl-indole scaffold. Its electronic and structural aspects were predicted using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the reactivity descriptors as well. The Uv-Vis spectral bands were assigned based on the time-dependant density functional theory TD-DFT calculations, while the gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAO) method was used to predict the 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts.

Of particular interest within the +6 uranium complexes is the linear uranyl(vi) cation and it forms numerous coordination complexes in solution and exhibits incongruent redox behavior depending on coordinating ligands. This DFT study predicts VI/V reduction potentials of a range of uranyl(vi) complexes in non-aqueous solutions within ∼0.10−0.20 eV of experiment.
