A new antimicrobial and cytotoxic sesquiterpenoid, lentinellic acid (1), has been isolated from submerged cultures of Lentinellus ursinus and L. omphalodes. The structure of the antibiotic was elucidated by spectroscopic methods and a single crystal X-ray analysis. 1 may be formed biogenetically by condensation of a protoilludane aldehyde 4 with a malonate unit.

AbstractTwo undescribed Tricholoma triterpenoids, namely tricholopardins C (1) and D (2), were isolated from the wild mushroom Tricholoma pardinum. Their structures with absolute configurations were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, as well as the single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2 were further obtained by chemical conversions from the known analogues. Compound 1 showed significant cytotoxicity to MCF-7 and Hela cell lines with IC50 values of 4.7 μM and 9.7 μM, respectively. Its mechanism of inducing MCF-7 cell apoptosis was studied briefly.

From the deep violet, encrusting marine sponge Chelonaplysilla violacea, two rearranged spongian diterpenes, aplyviolene, (1R*,1′S*,3?aR*,5R*,6R*,8R*,8′aS*)-3-oxo-8-(1′,4′,4′-trimethyl-8′-methylenedecahydroazulen-1′-yl)-2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-yl acetate (1), the acetoxy derivative, aplyviolacene (2), (5R*,8S*,9S*,10R*,13S*,14R* ,15S*,16R*)-spongian-15,16-diyl diacetate (3) and (5R*,8S*,9S*,10R*,13S*,14R*)-spongian-16-one (4) were isolated. The structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, and the structure of aplyviolene was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray determination. The crystal structure was refined to a residual of 0.036 for 1125 independent observed reflections. The crystals were orthorhombic, space group P212121 with a 8.098(1), b 11.628(1), c 21.774(3)Ǻ.

The ethanolic and acetone extracts of the whole plant of Elephantopus scaber were found to contain ethyl hexadecanoate, ethyl-9,12-octadecadienoate, ethyl-(Z)-9-octadecenoate, ethyl octadecanoate, lupeol, stigmasterol, stigmasterol glucoside, deoxyelephantopin (1) and two new germacranolide sesquiterpene lactones named 17,19-dihydrodeoxyelephantopin (2) and iso-17,19- dihydrodeoxyelephantopin (3) whose stereostructures were determined by spectroscopic methods, comparison with reported data and single-crystal X-ray analysis.

Two imidazolylidene (Im) complexes of the general formula trans-[PdX2(Im)(pyridine)] (X=Cl (2), Br (3)), in which the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has one of its nitrogen atoms substituted by a bulky 9-propyl-9-fluorenyl group (PrF), have been prepared and fully characterised by spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray structure analyses. In the solid state, the Im ring plane and the coordination plane of each complex are nearly orthogonal, thereby minimising the steric interactions between the N-substituents and the halide atoms. In both structures two methylenic C–H bonds sit near the dz2 axis point to the palladium atom, resulting in CH⋯Pd separations of 2.58/2.95Å in 2 and 2.74/2.74Å in 3. NMR measurements and DFT calculations indicate that these methylene groups are involved in anagostic CH⋯M interactions but not in significant H⋯X bonding.

[α-(Dichloromethylsilyl)ethyl]-dichloroborane-dimethylsulfide has been synthesized by the reaction of dichloromethylvinylsilane with dichloroborane-dimethylsulfide and its molecular structure determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and by spectroscopic methods. Following the Markovnikov rule, a chiral methine group is formed as a bridge between silicon and boron.

AbstractA new eremophilenolide 1β ,10β -epoxy-6β -acetoxy-3β -angeloyloxy-8β -hydrox y-eremophil- 7(11)-en-8,12α-olide (1), together with liguhodgsonal (2), esculetin (3) and β -sitosterol (4), was isolated from the aerial parts of Ligularia sagitta. The structure of the new constituent (1) was elucidated by spectroscopic methods and confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Para-aminosubstituted nitrosoarenes react with Ru ( CO )( OEP ) or [ Co ( TPP )( THF )2] SbF 6 (OEP2- = 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrinato dianion, TPP2- = 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinato dianion) to generate Ru ( OEP )( ONC 6 H 4 NMe 2)2 and [ Co ( TPP )( ONC 6 H 4 NR 2)2] SbF 6 ( R = Me , Et ), respectively, in fair to high yields. These N -bound nitrosoarene complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic methods. The complexes Ru ( OEP )( ONC 6 H 4 NMe 2)2 and [ Co ( TPP )( ONC 6 H 4 NMe 2)2] ClO 4 have also been characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Their structures represent the first reported solid-state structures of Ru and Co porphyrins containing C-nitroso ligands.

Zirconocene complex [ZrCl2(η5-C5Me4Ph)2] (1) prepared by metathesis of the appropriate lithium cyclopentadienide and ZrCl4 was reduced with magnesium in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of excess bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene, yielding the low-valent complex [Zr(η5-C5Me4Ph)2- (η2-Me3SiC≡CSiMe3)] (2). However, in addition to 2, the reduction afforded an unexpected Zr(II) complex [Zr(η5-C5Me4Ph)2(s-trans-η4-buta-1,3-diene)] (3). Compounds 1-3 were characterized by spectroscopic methods and by X-ray single-crystal diffraction.

Jatroidaine A (1), a new tetranortirucallane-type triterpene, and two known analogues (2−3) were isolated from the leaves and branches of Jatropha multifida. Their structures were fully elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and comparison to known compounds. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) inhibitory activities. Unfortunately, no significant activity was observed.

Using X-ray single crystal diffraction, the crystal structures of biologically active benzoxazole derivatives were determined. DFT calculation was performed with standard 6-31G*(d), 6-31G** and 6-31+G* basis set to analyze the molecular geometry and compare with experimentally obtained X-ray crystal data of compounds. The calculated HOMO-LUMO energy gap in compound 2 (2-(2-hydroxynaphtalen-1-yl)-4-methyl-7-isopropyl-1,3-benzoxazol-5-ol) is 3.80 eV and this small gap value indicates that compound 2 is chemically more reactive compared to compounds 1 (4-methyl-2-phenyl-7-isopropyl-1,3-benzoxazol-5-ol) and 3 (2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-methyl-7-isopropyl- 1,3-benzoxazol-5-ol). The crystal structures are stabilized by both intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds in which an intermolecular O–H⋅⋅⋅N hydrogen bond generates N3 and O7 chain motif in compounds 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The calculated bond lengths and bond angles of all three compounds are remarkably close to the experimental values obtained by X-ray single crystal diffraction.
