Photo-ion circular dichroism (PICD) and photo-electron circular dichroism (PECD) have been measured for the first time simultaneously in a coincidence experiment detecting the chirality of R- and S-Methyloxirane.

Chiral carbazole-based porphyrins were synthesized for the first time via the incorporation of hydrobenzoin units at the thiophene moieties. They showed absorption and circular dichroism in the near-infrared (NIR) region. The NIR absorption was further red-shifted by solvent-induced aggregation.

The first reported phytochemical studies on two species of flowers in Australia enabled the identification of six secondary metabolites from Illawarra flame tree flower (Brachychiton acerifolius) and seven secondary metabolites from the flowers of the Alstonville (Tibouchina lepidota). Pelargonidin 3-(6-coumarylglucoside)-5-(6-acetylglucoside) was found to be responsible for the red colour of B. acerifolius, whereas malvidin 3-(coumarylglucoside)-5-(acetylxyloside) was responsible for the purple colour of (T. lepidota) flowers. (2S)-4,5-Dihydroxyflavanone 7-O-β-d-glucuronide methyl ester was isolated for the first time from B. acerifolius, and its absolute configuration was determined by circular dichroism spectroscopy. Some of the traditional uses of B. acerifolius could also be correlated with the known activity of the isolated metabolites.

Absorption and magnetic circular dichroism spectra of metal-free phthalocyanine (H2Pc) have been recorded over the range 270–800 nm. The use of solvents transparent in the 270–400 nm region allows the observation for the first time of the B band spectral envelope of H2Pc in solution. The mcd spectrum clearly indicates that the complex (NH4)2Pc is formed when ammonia is bubbled through a solution of H2Pc in dimethyl sulphoxide. The multi-transition nature of the B band region is identified as a property of the phthalocyanine π electron system rather than arising from charge transfer between the ring and a central metal cation.

Two new sesquiterpenes, named aristoyunnolin I (1) and J (2), together with eight known compounds (3 - 10) were isolated from the roots of Aristolochia yunnanensis. Compounds 1 and 2 feature a rare hydroazulene-type sesquiterpene skeleton and represent the third and fourth examples of this kind found in nature. The structures were determined from spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations of 1 - 3 were assigned by comparing experimental with simulated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Compounds 1, 2, 6 - 10 were isolated from this plant for the first time. The cytotoxic activities of 1 - 10 were evaluated against P-388 and A-549 cell lines. Only compounds 4 and 5 showed moderate activity with IC50 values ranging from 12.0 to 18.2 μM.

Chemical investigation of MeOH extract of a South China Sea sponge Cacospongia sp. yielded 15 terpenoids belonging to three different skeleton-types, including the unusual C17 γ-lactone norditerpenoids (1–3), the rare C21 pyridine meroterpenoid (7), and the notable C25 manoalide-type sesterterpenoids (4–6, 8–10). Compounds 1–5 were initially obtained as enantiomers, and were further separated to be optically pure compounds (1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a-r, 3b-r, 4a, 4b, 5a and 5b) by chiral HPLC, with a LiAlH4 reduction aid for 3. Compounds 3a/3b (a pair of inseparable enantiomers), 4a, 5a, 6, and 7 were identified as new compounds, while 1a/1b and 2a/2b were obtained from a natural source and were determined for their absolute configurations for the first time. This is also the first time to encounter enantiomers of the well-known manoalide-type sesterterpenoids from nature. The structures with absolute configurations of the new compounds were unambiguously determined by comprehensive methods including HR-ESI-MS and NMR data analysis, optical rotation comparison, experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD), and Mo2(OAc)4 induced circular dichroism (ICD) methods. The cytotoxicity of the isolates against selected human tumor cell lines was evaluated, however, the tested compounds showed no activity against selected cell lines.

The structure of naturally-occurring cinerin C [systematic name: (7S,8R,3′R,4′S,5′R)-Δ8′-4′-hydroxy-5,5′,3′-trimethoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-2′,3′,4′,5′-tetrahydro-2′-oxo-7.3′,8.5′-neolignan], isolated from the ethanol extract of leaves ofPleurothyrium cinereum(Lauraceae), has previously been established by NMR and HRMS spectroscopy, and its absolute configuration established by circular dichroism measurements. For the first time, its crystal strucure has now been established by single-crystal X-ray analysis, as the monohydrate, C22H26O7·H2O. The bicyclooctane moiety comprises fused cyclopentane and cyclohexenone rings which are almost coplanar. An intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond links the 4′-OH and 5′-OCH3groups along thecaxis.
