The [Formula: see text]-methylated 25-oxasmaragdyrins were synthesized by reacting 25-oxasmaragdyrins with CH3I in presence of KOH in THF at reflux temperature. Although the reactions were carried out in presence of excess CH3I, we obtained only dimethyl-25-oxasma ragdyrins, where [Formula: see text]-methylations occurred at 24 and 26 “N”s of pyrrole rings of tripyrrane moiety of smaragdyrin core as confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The [Formula: see text]-methylated-25-oxasmaragdyrins were characterized in detail by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, absorption, fluorescence and electrochemical techniques. The effect of distortion induced by methylation, clearly reflected in structural and electronic properties of the macrocycle. All the pyrrole and furan protons experienced upfield shifts in the 1H NMR and maximum upfield shifts were noted for the [Formula: see text]-methylated pyrrole ring protons. The absorption spectra showed broad Soret band and four ill-defined Q-bands with significant reduction in extinction coefficients. The [Formula: see text]-methylated 25-oxasmaragdyrins were comparatively less fluorescent. The redox studies indicated that they are difficult to oxidize and easier to reduce.

5-(8-ethoxycarbonyl-1-naphthyl)-10,15,20-triphenyl porphyrin (ENTPP) has been synthesized in a one-pot reaction, and the corresponding chiral crystalline samples have been obtained by spontaneous resolution. 1 H NMR spectrum suggests it is mononaphthyl substituted species and an ethyl group is over the porphyrin plane. The structure has been further confirmed by X-ray crystallography. ENTPP·C6H14 (C57H50N4O2 ): monoclinic, P21, a = 10.707(2) Å, b = 12.203(2) Å, c = 17.858(4) Å, β = 103.06(3)°, V = 2272.8(8) Å3, Z = 2. The 8-position substituent, ester group, lies above the porphyrin plane and leads to the conformational chirality. The entire structure is built up with homochiral molecules, which leads to a chiral crystal through packing in P21 space group. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra have exhibited remarkable absorptions in the Soret band region, which further confirms the homochirality of the crystalline samples.

The synthesis of three new polysubstituted monoterpenic thiazolidin-4-ones, namely (Z)-3-methyl-2-{(E)-[(1R,4R)-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene]hydrazinylidene}thiazolidin-4-one, C14H21N3OS (2), (2Z,5Z)-5-[(dimethylamino)methylidene]-2-{(E)-[(1R,4R)-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene]hydrazinylidene}thiazolidin-4-one, C16H24N4OS (3), and (2Z,5Z)-5-[(dimethylamino)methylidene]-3-methyl-2-{(E)-[(1R,4R)-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene]hydrazinylidene}thiazolidin-4-one, C17H26N4OS (4), is reported, starting from the corresponding thiosemicarbazones obtained from naturally occurring (R)-camphor. All the newly obtained thiazolidin-4-ones have been fully characterized by HRMS and 1H and 13C (1D and 2D) NMR spectroscopy. Two of them, i.e. 2 and 3, were identified by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, confirming the synthetic pathway and the spectroscopic analyses. In 3, there are two roughly identical molecules within the asymmetric unit with the same absolute configuration. These two molecules are linked through N—H...O hydrogen bonds, building an R 2 2(8) graph-set motif.

In order to develop novel biorational pesticides, twelve new ether derivatives of 1β,4α,6α,9α-tetrahydroxy-2β,12-epoxymethano-β-dihydroagarofuran (3) were synthesized. The structure of the important intermediate 3 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography, and the new derivatives (3.1–3.12) were elucidated by IR, 1H NMR, 13 C NMR and 2D NMR spectroscopic and ESI-MS analysis. Insecticidal activities of these derivatives were tested against the third-instar larvae of Mythimna separata. Though most of the derivatives (3.1–3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 3.9–3.12) revealed no obvious activities at the concentration of 10 mg/mL –1, two compounds 3.5 and 3.7, with KD50 values of 12.9 (μg/g-1 and 7.8 μg/g –1, respectively, showed much higher insecticidal activities than celangulin-V, with a KD50 of 321.4 μg·g–1, the main insecticidal component from the root bark of Chinese bittersweet, Celastrus angulatus Max. The results showed that β-dihydroagarofuran has the potential to be a lead structure for semi-synthetic green insecticides.

In a systematic search for supramolecular complexes involving all combinations of the cyclic polyethers 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C 5), 18-crown-6 (18C 6) and dibenzo- 18-crown-6 (DB -18C6), and the geminal di- or trisulfones H2C(SO 2Me)2, H2C (SO2Et)2 and HC (SO2Me)3-n (SO2Et)n (n = 0 -3 ) , only the following four complexes could be isolated and unequivocally characterized by elemental analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy: [(12C4){H2C (SO2Et)2}2] (3), [(18C6){H2C (S O2Me)2}] (4), [(DB -18C 6){H2C (SO2Et)2}] (5) and [(D B -18C 6)2{HC (SO2Me )(SO2Et)2}3] (6). The structure of 3 (triclinic, space group P1̄) consists of crystallographically centrosymmetric formula units, in which the disulfone molecules are bonded on each side of the ring by two C -H ··· O(crown) interactions originating from the central methylene group (H···O 213 pm) and from the methylene group of one EtSO2 moiety ( H ··· O 237 pm). Formula units related by translation are connected into parallel strands by a third type of reciprocal C -H ···O bond (H ···O 232 pm) between the second H atom of the central methylene group and a sulfonyl oxygen atom of the adjacent unit. The structure of 4 (monoclinic, space group C2/c) showed severe disorder of the crown ether and could not be refined satisfactorily. Compounds 5 and 6 crystallized as long and extremely thin fibres, indicative of linear-polymeric supramolecular structures; single crystals for X-ray crystallography were not available.
