A new pregnane derivative, 2,6β,7β-trihydroxy-4-methyl-19-norpregna-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-one, has been isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of Potentilla evestita along with a pregnane derivative, 11α,17α,21-trihydroxypregna-4,16(22)-diene-3,20-dione, that is reported for the first time as a natural product. Their structures were elucidated with the aid of 1H and 13C NMR spectra and by COSY, HMQC, HMBC and NOESY experiments.

Two new cinnamic acid derivatives, thymofolinoates A (1) and B (2) have been isolated from the chloroform soluble fraction of Euphorbia thymifolia and their structures assigned from 1H and 13C NMR spectra, DEPT and by 2D COSY, HMQC and HMBC experiments. In addition, p-hydroxy cinnamic acid (3), 5-hydroxy-6,7,8,4′-tetramethoxy flavone (4), and 5-hydroxy-3′,4′,6,7,8-pentamethoxy flavone (5) have also been isolated for the first time from this species.

A novel furo-furan lactone 1 has been isolated as fine needles from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of Heliotropium eichwaldi. This is the first report of any furo-furan from the genus Heliotropium. β -Sitosterol 3-O-β -D-glucoside 2 has also been obtained for the first time from this source. The structure of 1 was elucidated by X-ray diffraction studies.

Kinetic studies of the reaction of p-dinitrobenzene with H2O2 and NaOH in 10%, 30%, and 50% aqueous dioxane have been carried out at 30.0 °C. The reaction involves the formation of a reasonably stable intermediate which absorbs strongly in the visible region, with the rate of formation being about 18 times faster than the rate of conversion to final product which is p-nitrophenol. Proton and 13C nmr spectra of the kinetic solution provide strong evidence that the intermediate is p-nitrophenyl hydroperoxide, apparently the first time that a true aryl peroxide species has been identified.

Four compounds were isolated from the stem bark of Antiaris africana. One of them, a γ-lactone named antialactone (1a), is reported for the first time as a natural product. The structures were determined by comprehensive analyses of their 1D and 2D NMR spectra and EI MS data. The absolute configuration of antialactone acetate (1b) was established by TDDFT CD calculations and comparison with measured CD spectra. The remaining three known compounds were identified, by comparing their spectroscopic data with those reported in the literature, as lichenxanthone, β-sitosterol, and betulinic acid.

The vibrational spectra of gem-2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetraphenoxy-1,3,5-cyclo-triaza-λ5-phosphorine were studied using density functional theory. Selected vibrational bands were assigned to normal modes on the basis of DFT calculation with the ADF program package. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra, the higher order 31P, 31P{1Ham.(sel.)} and 31P{1Harom.(sel.)} NMR spectra were measured and the values of 1J(C,H), 2J(C,H) and 2J(PI,PII) were found. Nearly the complete spin system (ABB′M4X4X4′) for the symmetry C2 was simulated with the gNMR simulation program and the values of 2J(PI,Ham.), 4J(PII,Ham.), 4J(PII,Harom.), 6J(PI,Harom.) and 6J(PII,H′arom.) were determined for the first time. The experimental NMR data were also compared with quantum chemical calculation results.

The torsion potential energy surface for cyclodecane has been examined using molecular mechanics and quantum chemical methods. The boat-chair-boat (BCB) conformer is predicted as the most stable structure at all levels of theory employed, in agreement with low temperature experiments. We found 13 low-energy conformers that cover a range of ~10 kcal mol-1. The relative abundance of the main isomers (named BCB, TBC, TBCC and TCCC) as a function of the temperature is discussed. In addition, energy calculations at high correlated levels of theory (MP4(SDTQ) and CCSD(T)) were for the first time performed for these conformations. In general, the predicted Gibbs population is in fairly good agreement with the experimental data. The simulated IR, VCD and 13 C NMR spectra were obtained showing good accordance with the observed data, providing important features for conformational analysis of cyclodecane.

The chloroform soluble fraction of the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Tanacetum santolinoides afforded six sesquiterpene lactones. Tanacetolide A (1) was isolated for the first time from a natural source, in addition to five known sesquiterpene lactones. The structures were established on the basis of extensive studies of their 1D and 2D (1H-1H COSY, HMQC, HMBC, HOHAHA and NOESY) NMR spectra and FAB mass spectral determinations. The compounds showed good cytotoxic activity when tested using the brine shrimp bioassay.

New pimarane type diterpenes named sessilifol A (1) and B (2) have been isolated from the EtOH soluble fraction of Hymenocrater sessilifolius Benth., along with eight known constituents cirsimaritin (3), gardenin C (4), β-sitosterol (5), saringosterol (6), β-sitosterol glucoside (7), ursolic acid (8), sucrose (9) and vanillic acid (10). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra and by 2D-NMR experiments. The structure of 1 was further confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The compound 2 showed potent inhibitory potential against the enzyme urease while 1, 3, 4 and 10 were moderately active.

Dihydroquinol derivative 1, quinol glucopyranoside 2 and quinol derivative 3 have been isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of Ajuga parviflora and their structures have been elucidated through spectroscopic studies as methyl 2-[2,2-dimethyl-6-oxo-7-dihydro-1,3- benzodioxol-3(6H)-yl]aceate (1), 2-hydroxy-4β-methyl-4a-(β-D-glucopyranoside)-2,5-cyclohexadien- 1-one (2) and (4-oxo-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-yl)acetic acid (3). The known quinol 4 has also been isolated for the first time from this species

Summary This study was to isolate and identify the antifungal compounds in the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of the methanol extractives of Taiwania (Taiwania cryptomerioides Hayata) heartwood and to examine their antifungal activity. Five compounds were obtained by open column chromatography and HPLC and based upon the results from Mass, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR analyses. Their structures were identified, namely ferruginol, helioxanthin, savinin, taiwanin C, and hinokiol. According to the results of antifungal test, the order of antifungal index of these compounds for Coriolus versicolor (L. ex Fr.) Quel. was ferruginol > taiwanin C > savinin > hinokiol. For Laetiporus sulphureus (B. ex Fr.) Bond. it was taiwanin C > savinin > ferruginol > hinokiol.
