A bioassay-guided purification of the methanolic crude extract obtained from the roots of Chiococcaalba (L.) Hitchc. resulted in the isolation of a new, bioactive, metabolite identified as ent-17-hydroxy-16α-kauran-3-one (1). Elucidation of the new structure was based on analyses of the results obtained from various spectroscopic methods (IR, MS, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR) and chemical transformations. The stereochemistry at C16 was assigned by comparing both the proton and carbon chemical shifts of C17 with those reported in the literature. The new kaurane showed weak antimicrobial activity when tested against Staphylococcusaureus. Keywords: medicinal plants, Chiococcaalba, Rubiaceae, kaurane, diterpene, antimicrobial.

Abstract: The study were conducted at Dilla University, College of Natural Sciences, Biological Sciences laboratories. Background: Ethiopia is a country with many ethnic groups, cultures and beliefs which in turn have contributed to the high diversity of traditional health care knowledge and practices of traditional medicine from local growth plants, animals and minerals for various physical and mental disorders of human and livestock population that passed from generation to generation for centuries. Medicinal plants contributors to pharmaceutical, agricultural and food industries in the world. The use of medicinal plants in the industrialized societies has been traced to extraction and development of several drugs used in order to heel some diseases having inhibiting effect against pathogenic microorganism. Objective: The main objective of this study was Extraction and Phytochemicals determination of traditional medicinal plants for anti microbial susceptibility test. Methodology: The extraction and identification of some phytochemicals crude compound which used for antimicrobial susceptibility test from plant sample such as Ocimum lamiifolium (OL), Croton maerosth (Cm) and Ruta chalepesis (RC) were conducted. Plant samples are collected, powdered using mortal and pistil and extracted using ethanol and some susceptibility tests were performed to identify some phytochemicals compound. Result: The main result of Antimicrobial activity test showed that the crude extract of OL has the highest zone of inhibition. The highest yield of crude extract (38.21%) was obtained from Croton maerosth (CM) which followed by Ruta chalepesis (RC) (32.43%). However, the lowest yield (28.37%) was obtained from Oscpmum lamifolium (OL). Conclusion: Traditional Medicine is used by many people to managing numerous conditions; it’s accessible and effective on antimicrobial activity. Therefore, it plays a significant role by reducing life-threatening ailments of people and other animals.

During a reinvestigation of the 13C NMR spectra of 1-fluoronaphthalene (1) and of 2-fluoronaphthalene (2) at 20 and 25.16 MHz, uncertainties that existed in the literature about signal assignments for 1 could be cleared. In the spectral analyses for 2 given so far, five out of ten signals were incorrectly assigned. The corrected assignment is supported by extensive 13C{1H} double resonance experiments, by recording of proton-coupled 13C and 13C{19F} spectra and by off-resonance 13C{1H} noise-decoupling. The results show a strong + M-effect of the fluorine substituents on 13C chemical shifts similar to the effects of OH and OCH3 groups. 1H NMR spectra of 1 and 2 could be partially assigned by decoupling of the 19F resonances and by iterative analysis.

From the leaf exudate of Aloe lateritia ENGLER the C-glucosyl com pounds homonataloin, aloeresin A and aloesin (synon. aloeresin B) were isolated together with the anthraquinone nataloeem odin-8-methylether and spectroscopically identified. Hom onataloin, widely distributed in Aloe species, was separated into homonataloin A and B by combined TLC and DCCC. In their 1 D and 2D 1H NMR spectra only the shifts of the 2′-hydroxyl protons of both glucosyl residues differ significantly, indicative of 10 S (A) resp. 10 S (B) configurations. In both com pounds the anthrone is in β-position of the D-glucopyranosyl, as determined by the large coupling constants of the anomeric protons. The 13C NMR signals are unambiguously assigned by the use of DEPT, APT and gated-decoupling methods. Only the chemical shifts of C -11 and C -14 show significant differences between both diastereomers due to the adjacent 2′-sugar hydroxyls. The two homonataloins differ mostly in optical rotation and circulardichroism due to different configurations at C - 10 of the anthrone part. The absolute configurations of the diastereomers are determined by correlation of their CD spectra with the CD spectra of the structural analogues 7-hydroxyaloins A and B, which shows that hom onataloin A is the 10 S, 1′S-compound and that homonataloin B has 10 R, 1′S-configuration.

The present work describes the syntheses and antimicrobial activity studies of a series of novel Schiff bases (4a–4i) and their Mannich bases (5a–5h) starting from 4-amino-3-(N-phthalimido-methyl)-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (3). All the synthesized compounds were characterized by IR,1H-NMR,13C-NMR, and MS. All the synthesized compounds were screened for four Gram-negative strains, one Gram-positive strain of bacteria, and one diploid fungal strain. In general the antimicrobial activity increased remarkably on the introduction of azomethine functionality in parent triazole (3). The antimicrobial activity further improved when morpholine group was added to them except forEnterobacter cloacae, where loss of activity was observed. The results are promising and show that the fine tuning of the structures (5a, 5b, 5e, 5f,and5h) can lead to some new antimicrobial compounds.

Five series of a novel class of 4-acyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines have been synthesized and characterized: the 4-acetyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 1]; the 4-cyclohexylcarbonyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 2]; the 4-benzoyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 3]; the benzyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates [series 4]; and the t-butyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates [series 5]. The compounds were synthesized by diazotization of a primary aromatic amine and subsequent coupling to an appropriate secondary amine: 1-acetylpiperazine [series 1]; 1-(cyclohexylcarbonyl)-piperaizine [series 2]; 1-benzoylpiperazine [series 3]; benzyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate [series 4]; and t-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate (1-BOC-piperazine) [series 5]. The compounds of series 1–5 were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, high-resolution MS and IR spectroscopy. The model compounds 1,4-di[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines, and ethyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates were used to facilitate the assignment of the chemical shifts specific to the piperazine ring carbons. HSQC spectra of select compounds established the correlation between proton and carbon resonance signals.

(Ranunculaceae) yielded four additional known flavonoid compounds including: kaempferol 3-O-β-ᴅ- (6ʺ-α-ʟ-rhamnopyranosyl)-glucopyranoside (nicotiflorin), apigenin 8-C-β-ᴅ-glucopyranoside (vitexin), luteolin 8-C-β-ᴅ-glucopyranoside (orientin) and apigenin 8-C-β-ᴅ-(2ʺ-O-β-ᴅ-glucopyranosyl)- glucopyranoside (flavosativaside). The characterisation of these compounds was achieved by various chromatographic and spectroscopic methods (UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS).

The present study is in the interest of some synthesized novel derivatives containing 4-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-N-(morpholinomethyl)-6-arylpyrimidin-2-amines pooled with different bio-active heterocycles such as pyrazole, pyrimidine and morpholine derivatives. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectral data. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against different bacterial and fungal strains using Mueller-Hinton Broth dilution method. On the basis of SAR studies, it was observed that the presence of electron withdrawing groups remarkably enhanced the antimicrobial activity of synthesized compounds.
