Chemical investigation of the EtOAc extract of an insect-associated fungus Letendraea sp. 5XNZ4-2 cultured in Potato Dextrose Broth (1/2 PDB) medium lead to the isolation of three new polyketides, named letendronol D (1), phomopsiketones H-I (2-3). The structures of new compounds were elucidated by the analysis of HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations were determined by modified Mosher’s method, ECD calculation and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cytotoxicity and antibacterial activities of 1 were assayed and regrettably 1 didn’t display any cytotoxicity and antibacterial activity. 3 was the first phomopsiketone derivative obtaining the lactone.

In our continuous search for antibacterial agents against Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) from kiwi-associated fungi, two pairs of epimeric cytochalasins, zopfiellasins A–D (1–4), were characterized from the fungus Zopfiella sp. The structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic data analysis, while the absolute configurations were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited antibacterial activity against Psa with MIC values of 25 and 50 μg/mL, respectively. This is the first report of anti-Psa activity of cytochalasin derivatives.

The reactivity of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2- ylidene towards dichlorosilane H2SiCl2, bis(trifluoromethanesulfonato)silane H2Si(OTf)2 (OTf = OSO2CF3), and silyl trifluoromethanesulfonate H3SiOTf has been investigated. It turned out that the coordination of the NHC ligand can occur stepwise to form the three neutral compounds (NHC)SiH2Cl2 (1), (NHC)2SiH2Cl2 (2), (NHC)SiH2(OTf)2 (3), as well as the two ion pairs [(NHC)SiH3]+(OTf-) (4) and [(NHC)2SiH3]+(OTf-) (5); the latter represent the first NHC adducts of the parent silylium cation (H3Si+). The multinuclear NMR and IR spectroscopic data of the products reflect the characteristics of four-, five-, and six-coordinate silane complexes. All new compounds were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses

Reactions of pentamethylantimony (CH3)5Sb with carboxylic acids in the molar ratio 1:2 afford one equivalent of methane and essentially quantitative yields of crystalline tetramothylstibonium hydrogendicarboxylates. Six new compounds of this series have been synthesized using benzoic, o-phthalic, salicylic, 4-ethoxy-salicylic, oxalic, and malic acid, and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic data. An ionic structure with strong hydrogen bonds in the anionic components is proposed.The crystal structures of the hydrogen-dibenzoato (1), hydrogen-ortho-plithalato (2) and 4-ethoxy-hydrogen-salicylate (3) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compounds can be described as having ionic lattices with some donor-acceptor inter­actions between the stibonium centers and the carboxylate oxygen atoms. The anions are characterized by strong hydrogen bonds O...H...O. Thus, the (CH3)4Sb-tetrahedron in 1 is distorted by two benzoate oxygon atoms (at 304(2) and 340(2) pin). The cation in 2 is largely undistorted and the anion has a hydrogenphthalate hydrogen bond of d(O...H...O) = 232 pm. The cation-anion contact in 3 is as short as d(Sb-O) = 289 pm rendering the Sb atom pentacoordinate.

The block single-crystals of taurine were obtained, and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The single-crystal X-ray analysis of taurine reveals that the crystal belongs monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c with a = 0.52824(10) nm, b = 1.1647(8) nm, c = 0.79236(13) nm, ß = 94.0850(10). The magnesium complex with taurine has been synthesized in ethanol. The antibacterial assay of the Mg (II) complex was measureed using a modified version of the 2-fold serial dilution method. The results show that the complex shows considerable antibacterial activity against escherichia coli, bacillus subtilis and staphylococcus white.

Quinolin-8-ol (1) on reaction with 2,6-dichloroaniline and m-nitrobenzaldehyde afforded 7-(α-hydroxy- m-nitrobenzyl)quinolin-8-ol (2), which is an unusual Mannich reaction product. The structure of (2) was determined by spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Preliminary antimicrobial screening showed that (1) and (2) have activity against a large number of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Single crystals of Sr2H3I andBa5H2I3.9(2)O2 were obtained by reacting Sr or Ba, respectively, with dried and sublimed NH4I in a 4 : 1 molar ratio in silica-jacketed Nb ampoules for 13 h at 1200 K. The crystal structures of the new compounds have been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Sr2H3I crystallizes in a stuffed anti-CdI2 structure isotypic to Ba2H3Cl in the space group P3m1 (no. 164) with the lattice parameters a = 426.0(1) and c = 774.9(2) pm, while Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2 crystallizes in a new structure type in the space group Cmcm (no. 63) with the lattice parameters a = 1721.0(2), b = 1452.5(2) and c = 639.03(9) pm. The structural results for Sr2H3I are corroborated by EUTAX calculations. For the disordered compound Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2, EUTAX calculations on an approximated, ordered structural model were used to find possible insights into the disorder

The heartwood of Euxylophora paraensis Hub. (Rutaceae) has given N-methylflindersine (2),spectabiline (3), skimmianine (4) and two new alkaloids, identified from spectroscopic data as 4-hydroxy-2,2,6-trimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinolin-5-one (5) and 4-(2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylbutoxy)-1-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one (6). Five new dimeric quinolinone alkaloids, C30H30N2O4, were isolated. The structure of one of these, paraensidimerin D, has now been shown by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods to be (11), viz. (6aα,7α,14aα)-6,6,9,16- tetramethyl-7-(2-methylprop-1-enyl)-6,6a,7,9,14a,16-hexahydro-8H,15H- quino[3'',4'':5',6'] pyrano [2',3':4,5] pyrano-[3,2-c]quinoline-8,15- dione.

In this research, a new depside of the lichen Everniopsis trulla has been isolated. The extraction was carried out to 400 g of dry sample and ground with ethanol for 3 repetitions, then, it was fractionated by applying column chromatography with the CHCl3-MeOH system and purified by recrystallization with MeOH-Acetone (1: 1); Finally, white crystals in the form of needles (solid C) with a melting point of 198 ° C were obtained, whose structure was elucidated based on spectroscopic data (UV-Visible, IR, NMR-H1, NMR-C13, mass spectrometry and single crystal X-ray diffraction). According to the Science Finder databases, it is a new depside, called trullarin, and it is observed that molecular packing is influenced by both intramolecular and intermolecular forces. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds of O - H -O type binds neighboring molecules forming dimers.

Four new metabolites, asperchalasine I (1), dibefurin B (2) and two epicoccine derivatives (3 and 4), together with seven known compounds (5–11) were isolated from a mangrove fungus Mycosphaerella sp. SYSU-DZG01. The structures of compounds 1–4 were established from extensive spectroscopic data and HRESIMS analysis. The absolute configuration of 1 was deduced by comparison of ECD data with that of a known structure. The stereostructures of 2–4 were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1, 8 and 9 exhibited significant α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 17.1, 26.7 and 15.7 μM, respectively. Compounds 1, 4, 6 and 8 showed antioxidant activity by scavenging DPPH· with EC50 values ranging from 16.3 to 85.8 μM.
