Action of Nitrating Mixtures and Mineral Acids on the Quinoline Alkaloids Haplophyllidine and Anhydroperforine
The effects of various acids on the intramolecular cyclization of haplophyllidine (1) were studied. Compound1 was converted at room temperature by H2SO4, HNO3, HClO4, and a nitrating mixture into anhydroperforine (2) whereas AcOH and HCl (35%) did not affect1. Nitration of1 and2 at 65 –70°C led to elimination of MeOH followed by aromatization of ring A and nitration of the furan ring to form 7-methoxy-3,3-dimethyl-9-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1H-furo[2,3-b]pyrano[2,3-h] quinoline (3) and 7-methoxy-3,3-dimethyl-9-nitro-2,3,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-furo[2,3-b]pyrano[2,3-h]quinolin-8-ol (4). Use of Ac2O and HNO3 gave 4,8-dimethoxy-8-(3-me...

Megastigmanes and Flavonoids from Seeds of Hippophae rhamnoides
Phytochemical investigation of the seeds fromHippophae rhamnoides L. led to the isolation of a new megastigmane, named (6S,9R)-9-hydroxy-4,7-megastigmadien-3-one-9-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1 →6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), together with its spatial heterogeneity which is a known megastigmane (2). Compounds3 –13 are flavonoid glycosides, 9 compounds (2,5 –12) of which were isolated from theH. rhamnoides for the first time. Their structures were proposed through HR-ESI-MS,1H, and13C NMR data interpretation. (Source: Chemistry of Natural Compounds)

Synthesis and Anti-VIBRIO Activity of Gallic Acid Derivatives Containing Thiosemicarbazide
In order to explore new gallic acid derivatives with high antibacterial activity, we synthesize a series of new 1-(3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoyl)-4-(substituted benzoyl)thiosemicarbazide and evaluate their activities againstVibrio harveyi,Vibrio cholerae,Vibrio parahaemolyticus, andVibrio vulnificus in vitro. Through the experiments, we found that compound7d has the best inhibitory activity againstV. harveyi andV. cholerae, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were 0.0078 mg/mL and 0.0156 mg/mL; compound7h has the best inhibitory activity againstV. parahaemolyticus andV. vulnificus, with MIC values of 0.0313 mg/mL a...

Neolignans from Selaginella trichoclada
A new neolignan, ( –)-(7R,8S,7 ′R,8 ′S,8 ′′S)-4 ′-hydroxy-3′,3′′,5′′-trimethoxy-4′′-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-7,9,7 ′,9′-diepoxy-3,4,8′′,9′′-bisoxy-8,8′-sesquineolignan (1), and five known neolignan derivatives were isolated from an ethanolic extract ofSelaginella trichoclada Alston. The chemical structure of these compounds was identified by extensive spectroscopic analyses (UV-vis, 1D/2D NMR, CD, and MS). Furthermore, the molecular docking results indicate that compound1 may act as an anti-inflammatory inhibitor. (Source: Chemistry of Natural Compounds)
