NMR- and MS-guided metabolomic mining for new phytoconstituents from a widely used dietary supplement, <i>Rhodiola rosea</i>, yielded two new (+)-myrtenol glycosides, <b>1</b> and <b>2</b>, and two new cuminol glycosides (<b>3</b> and <b>4</b>), along with three known analogues (<b>5</b>–<b>7</b>). The structures of the new compounds were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Quantum Mechanics-driven <sup>1</sup>H iterative Full Spin Analysis (QM-HiFSA) decoded the spatial arrangement of the methyl groups in <b>1</b> and <b>2</b>, as well as other features not recognizable by conventional methods, including higher order spin-coupling effects. The application of QM-HiFSA will provide a definitive reference point for future phytochemical and biological studies of <i>R. rosea</i> as a resilience botanical. Application of a new NMR data analysis software package, CT, for QM-based iteration of NMR spectra is also discussed.

Five new triterpene saponins (1–5) were isolated from the stems of Akebia quinata. On the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 2D NMR data, and chemical evidence, the structures of the new compounds were determined to be 3β-[( O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl)oxy]-29-hydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (1), 3β-[( O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)- O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]-α-L-arabinopyranosyl)oxy]-29-hydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (2), 3β-[( O-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-(1→3)- O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]-α-L-arabinopyranosyl)oxy]-29-hydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (3), 3β-[( O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl)oxy]-23,29-dihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (4), and 3β-[( O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)- O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]-α-L-arabinopyranosyl)oxy]-23,29-dihydroxy-olean-12-en-28-oic acid O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (5), respectively.

Five new acylated aminooligosaccharides (1–5), together with one known related analogue (6), were isolated from Streptomyces sp. HO1518. Their structure was identified by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR data and high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS), and by comparison with those reported in the literature. All of the new compounds showed more promising porcine pancreatic α-amylase (PPA) inhibitory activities than the clinical drug acarbose, indicating them as potential pharmaceutical drug leads toward type II diabetes.

Phytochemical screening of the rhizomes of Ruscus hypophyllum (Liliaceae) has resulted in the isolation of five spirostanol saponins (1-5) including a new saponin (4) and nine furostanol saponins (6–14) including three new saponins (9–11), together with a known cholestane glycoside (15) and a new cholestane glycoside (16). The structures of the new compounds were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 2D NMR data, and chemical evidence. The spirostanol saponins 1, 2, and 5 showed moderate cytotoxic activity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells.

Seven new compounds, including one dimer novel skeleton, chamaecyformosanin A (1); three diterpenes, chamaecyformosanins B–D (2-4); one sesquiterpene, chamaecyformosanin E (5); and two monoterpenes, chamaecyformosanins F and G (6 and 7) were isolated from the methanol extract of the bark of Chamaecyparis obtusa var. formosana. Their structures were established by the mean of spectroscopic analysis and the comparison of NMR data with those of known analogues. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical evidence, in-depth NMR spectroscopic analysis, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the isolated compounds were subjected to an evaluation of their antimicrobial activity. Metabolites 1, 3, and 4 present antibacterial activities. It is worth mentioning that the chemical composition of the bark of C. obtusa var. formosana has never been studied in the past. This is the first time the barks from C. obtusa var. formosana were studied and two new skeleton compounds, 1 and 7, were obtained.

The paper presents the synthesis of cyclo (bis-paraquat p-phenylene p-phenylene-carbonyl) tetrakis (hexafluorophosphate), named �CETOBOX�, and the closely related structural determinations. This compound exists in three tautomeric forms. These forms were evidentiated by NMR-data (1H-NMR, TOCSY, COSY, NOESY), UV-Vis spectra coupled with pH measurements and by synthesis. As the �CETOBOX� gives �in situ� only the corresponding monoylide, the synthesis of a new fluorescent indolizine cyclophane has been performed by a 3+2 cycloaddition. All structures of the new compounds presented herein have been established by NMR spectroscopy. Also, theoretical methods (MM3, AM1, AM1-COSMO and B88LYPDFT) have been used to determine the most stable conformer structures.

In this study, a synthetic procedure for unsymmetrical metallophthalocyanines of the form M[Pc(AB3)], where A and B refer to two different types of peripheral functionality, has been developed and the new compounds have been converted to monomeric and dimeric palladium complexes. Asymmetrically substituted phthalocyanines were synthesized with the well-known statistical condensation method, by using two differently substituted precursors, namely 4-(2-ethoxyethoxy)-1-2-dicyanobenzene (1) and 4-{4-[Z/E]-phenylazo]-1-naphthyl}oxy-1,2-dicyanobenzene (2). Consequently, electron-donating 2-ethoxyethoxy groups and electron-withdrawing palladium complex are present in the same structure. Cyclopalladation was performed with [Pd(PhCN)2Cl2] to yield the bis-μ-chloro-bridged dimers and subsequently, the corresponding monomers were obtained by refluxing with three equivalents of potassium acetylacetonate. The resulting products were purified by column chromatography and characterized by several chemical and spectroscopic analysis methods. All compounds have very high solubility in organic solvents due to the presence of 2-ethoxyethoxy moiety.

The study was carried out to identify the compound responsible for hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects of Cajanus cajan (redgram). The methanol extract of redgram seeds was found to decrease fasting blood glucose and lipid profile (p<0.001) on streptozotocin-induced mice compared to control. This activity- guided fraction led to the isolation of a compound, substituted benzene containing polyhydroxy functions fused with lactone (CCA3) by analysis of 1H and 13C-NMR data. Biological studies of the isolated compound possessed prominent hypolipidemic activity. Although a number of hypoglycemic compounds are reported, yet not any hypolipidemic compound from redgram. The compound CCA3 seems to be the first report on hypolipidemic activity from methanol extract of redgram. TAJ 2011; 24(1): 6-10

In this work we describe the synthesis of some novel fused imidazo [2, 1-b] [1, 3] thiazole derivatives. The reaction of 1, 2-diaminoethane 1 with carbon disulphide in H2O/ETOH as solvent furnishes 4, 5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-thiol 2 under reflux condition. the reaction of 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-thiol on treatment with ethylchloro acetate and aromatic aldehyde in presence of anhydrous sodium acetate and acetic acid as solvent to give (Z)-2-(arylidene)-5,6-dihydroimidazo [2,1-b] [1,3] thiazol-3(2H)-one 3a-j. Compounds 3a-j was condensed with hydroxylamine to give 3-(aryl)-2, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydroimidazo [2, 1-b] [1,3] thiazolo [5, 4-d] isoxazole 4a-j. The structures of the new compounds were established by elemental analyses, IR,1H NMR and13C NMR data.
