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.

Summary The antifungal activity of cadinane skeletal sesquiterpenoids from Taiwania (Taiwania cryptomerioides Hayata) heartwood is demonstrated. Using spectral analyses, the absolute structures of three main cadinanes, T-cadinol, T-muurolol, and α-cadinol, all isolated from Taiwania with HPLC, were identified. The amount of these cadinanes was also quantified using GC. The results showed that the total amount of cadinanes extracted from heartwood with n-C6H14 was 6.49 mg per kg of wood. This was much more than the essential oils collected by water distillation from leaves (0.04 mg/kg), sapwood (0.36 mg/kg), or heartwood (1.77 mg/kg). Moreover, results obtained from the antifungal assays demonstrated that αcadinol exhibited the highest antifungal index for both Coriolus versicolor and Laetiporus sulphureus, followed by T-cadinol and T-muurolol. As a matter of fact, α-cadinol completely inhibited the growth of C. versicolor and L. sulphureus at the level as low as 100 ppm. Further comparison of the molecular configuration of these cadinanes reveals that cadinane skeletal sesquiterpenoids with an equatorial hydroxyl group at C-9 and a trans configuration at the ring junction, such as the case for α-cadinol, exhibited the strongest antifungal activity.

From leaves and bulbs of Ornithogalum nutans L. (2 n = 28), seventeen cardenolides were isolated by column chromatography, DCCC and TLC. The structure elucidation was performed by means of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HH-Cosy, HC-Cosy and FAB-MS studies and identification of the sugar moieties by GLC after acid hydrolysis of the cardenolides. Sugar compounds were identified as digitoxose, 3-acetyl-digitoxose, 2-deoxy-allose, 6-deoxy-allose, rhamnose, xylose and apiose. Glycosides of 7β,15β, 16 α-trihydroxy-uzarigenin, 8β,16 α-dihy-droxy, 15-oxo-uzarigenin, 3 β, 11β-dihydroxy, 12-oxo, 18-nor-5 α-card-13-enolid, 11 α-hydroxygitoxigenin, 12-oxo,8, 14β-epoxy-uzarigenin, 8β-hydroxy, 15-oxo-uzarigenin and 12β-hydroxy-oleandrigenin are described for the first time, the presence of oleandrigenin-glycosides in the genus Ornithogalum was not known until now. Ornithogalum nutans L. shows a different cardenolide pattern from the second European species of the section Myogalum (LINK) PETERM. - Ornithogalum boucheanum (KUNTH) ASCHERS.

Reaction of the title compound I with nitric acid in acetic afforded a mixture of products which on column chromatography afforded 5-cyano-4,4,6-trimethyl-2-nitromethylene-3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine (II), (Z)-5-(1-acetoxy-2-nitrovinyl)-3,5-dicyano-4,4-dimethyl-2-pyrazoline (III) and 3-acetoxy-3-cyano-4,4,6-trimethyl-5-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridazine (IV). Reaction of I with nitrating mixture in chloroform gave only the compound II. The probable mechanism of formation of compounds II, III and IV, together with their 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and mass spectra, is discussed.

A novel and efficient route have been designed for the synthesis of 4-(5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-2-phenyl-5-[2-phenylvinyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one. All the synthesized compound were characterized by elemental analysis, IR,1H NMR,13C NMR and mass spectra. All the synthesized products were evaluated for their antibacterial activity againstB. SubtilisandE.Coliand antifungal activity againstA. nigerandC.Albicanrespectively. The results indicate that the present compounds may serve as better fungicides when compared to bactericides. The synthesized compounds have turned to be wonder by possessing antimicrobial properties.

A series of ten novel (<em>E</em>)-(4-(aryl)phenyl)(3-(2-(1-phenyl-3- (thiophen-2-yl)-1<em>H</em>-pyrazol-4-yl)vinyl)benzofuran-2-yl)methanones (<strong>7a-j</strong>) derivatives were prepared by traditional Claisen-Schmidt and Suzuki cross-coupling reaction under conventional and microwave irradiation conditions. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were established on the basis of FTIR, <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>13</sup>C NMR, mass spectral data and elemental analysis. The products were assayed for their <em>in vitro</em> antibacterial activity against different types of bacterial strains. Further the antifungal activity was examined by inhibitory action against three fungal strains such as <em>Aspergillus niger</em>, <em>Aspergillus flavus</em> and <em>Fusarium oxysporum</em>.

Screening of plants antifungal compounds from Algae has been resulted. Screening was preceded by extraction of its fresh substance with benzene, methanol, and chloroform solvents and followed examination towards fungi Fusarium oxysforum, Sclerotium rolfsii, Aspergillus flavus, and Pythium spp. The antifungal effects were tested by well methode in potato dextrosa agar (PDA) medium. Analysis compound of benzene extract with preparative TLC methode (n-hexene : ethyl acetate : methanol = 7 : 2 : 1) obtained 5 compounds. Antifungal activity test of the fractions was done by the disk diffution methode with PDA medium. Identification of active compounds with spectroscophy method (IR and NMR) indicated the benzene extract analogue with fungicide Metalaxyl with the benzene ring and substituens of ester, alkyl, and amide. Identification of fractions showed that the compounds analogue with fungicides belong to carboxamide with the main substituen of benzene ring and ester/aldehids formed, alkyl, and  amide.
