Phytochemical investigation of the Australian lichen, Ramalina glaucescens resulted in the isolation of a new halogenated depside, 5-chlorosekikaic acid 5, together with (+)-usnic acid 1, sekikaic acid 2, atranorin 6 and parietin 7, the latter of which was isolated from the associated (co-occurring) lichen, X. parietina. Compound 5 is suspected to be an artifact of the isolation procedure. All structures were assigned using spectroscopic methods and mass spectrometry. In addition to the full characterization of 5, this report represents the first application of 2D NMR spectroscopy to complete the unequivocal chemical shift assignment for compounds 2 and 7. Compounds 1-2 and 5-7 all displayed varying degrees of antitumor activity (ranging from an IC50 of 15 μM to >44 μM) with compounds 1, 2 and 5 also displaying antibacterial properties. Of these, (+)-usnic acid 1 displayed the most significant antitumor and antibacterial activities.

A series of cresol-based benzoxazines were synthesized for potential application as a polymer matrix in abrasive composites. The chemical structures of the obtained benzoxazine resins were investigated in detail using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and hydrogen-1 as well as carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR, 13C NMR) with an additional analysis using two-dimensional NMR techniques (2D NMR 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C gHSQC and gHMBC). Structural analysis confirmed the presence of vibrations of -O-C-N- at ~950 cm−1 wavenumber, characteristic for an oxazine ring. The thermal properties of benzoxazine monomers were examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. The polymerization enthalpy varied from 143.2 J/g to 287.8 J/g. Thermal stability of cresol-based benzoxazines was determined using thermogravimetry (TGA) analysis with additional analysis of the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC) emitted from the synthesized benzoxazines during their crosslinking by static headspace coupled with gas chromatography technique (HS-GC). The amount of residual mass significantly differed between all synthesized polybenzoxazines in the range from 8.4% to 21.2%. The total VOC emission for benzoxazines decreased by 46–77% in reference to a conventional phenolic binder. The efficiency of abrasive composites with the benzoxazine matrix was evaluated based on abrasion tests. Performed analyses confirmed successful synthesis and proper chemical structure of cresol-based benzoxazines. All the experiments indicated that benzoxazines based on different cresol isomers significantly differ from each other. Good thermal performance and stability of the abrasive composites with the polybenzoxazine matrix and significantly lower VOC emission allow us to state that benzoxazines can be a promising and valuable alternative to the phenolics and a new path for the development of modern, eco-friendly abrasives.

The separation and isolation of the four atropisomers of ortho-halogenated tetraarylporphyrins by semi-preparative HPLC is described. Full characterization and assignment of all 1 H and 13 C resonances of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2-fluoro or 2-chlorophenyl)porphyrins and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2-fluoro or chloro-5-N-ethylsulfamoylphenyl)porphyrins by 1D and 2D NMR techniques is reported. The outcome is an unequivocal evidence of the chlorosulfonation of meso-tetra(2-haloaryl)porphyrins on the 5′-position.

Two new compounds [1-2] were purified from ethyl acetate fraction of Quercus incana. The structure of these compounds is mainly established by using advanced spectroscopic technique such as UV, IR, one-dimensional (ID) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR techniques, and EI mass. The structural formula was deduced to be 4-hydroxydecanoic acid [1] and 4-hydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl) pentanoic acid [2]. Both isolated compounds were tested for their antimicrobial potential and showed promising antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus.

Abstract The amount of non-cellulosic glucans in Eucalyptus globulus wood (approx. 4.5%) was assessed by extraction of sawdust with a 0.5 M NaOH solution at 90–120°C and the structural features were elucidated in a glucan-enriched polysaccharide fraction isolated by hot water extraction (120°C, 2 h). Isolated soluble glucans were characterized by wet chemistry methods and a set of 1D and 2D NMR techniques. The major proportion of glucans consisted of amylose (20%) and amylopectin (80%), although a small proportion of β-(1→3)-glucan (<0.2% on wood weight) was also detected. Although glucans are easily removed in the initial phase of kraft pulping, notable amounts were found in unbleached pulp and it was supposed that in the final stage of kraft pulping a fraction of α-glucan is precipitated onto the fiber surface and contributes to the pulp yield.

Phytochemical analysis of the ethyl acetate extract of stem wood of Salvertia convallariodora A. St.-Hil. (Vochysiaceae), a Brazilian Cerrado species, led to the isolation and full characterization of three new non-aromatic B-ring flavanones (1-3) as well as the terpene mixture of sericic acid (4), 24-hydroxytormentic acid (5), 24-hydroxytormentic acid glucosyl ester (6), and sericoside (7), all identified for the first time from S. convallariodora. The structures of the new flavanones (1-3) were established from IR, LC-PDA-qTOF-MS, and NMR spectral data, including 2D NMR experiments.

The synthesis and full characterization of a series of (triphenylphosphine)gold complexes with thiol-containing amino acids and peptides is reported. Boc-Cys-Au(PPh3) was prepared in solution by reaction of Boc-Cys-OH with (Ph3P)AuCl. The related Ac-Cys-Au(PPh3) and an Au derivative of the cysteine-modified neuropeptide enkephalin (Enk), [Cys]5-Au(PPh3)-Enk, were prepared on the resin, using the orthogonal trityl-protecting group on Cys. For comparison, the metal-free [Cys]5-Enk and an S-tert-butyl-protected [Cys]5-Enk were also prepared. Most noteworthy, gold complexation works best when carried out on the resin, and the gold thiolate survives cleavage from the resin under optimized conditions. The new conjugates were comprehensively characterized, including 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Along with characteristic changes in the 1H and 13C NMR spectra, 31P NMR spectra reveal a characteristic downfield shift of ca. 5 ppm upon complexation of the Au(PPh3)-fragment to Cys, which is also pertinent in the Au-labelled [Cys]5-Enk.
