The bioactivity of the flavonoids pinostrobin (1), pinocembrin (2), tectochrysin (3), galangin 3-methyl ether (4), and tiliroside (5) isolated from Lychnophora markgravii aerial parts was investigated in vitro against amastigote stages of Leishmania amazonensis. The compounds were isolated by several chromatographic techniques and their chemical structures were established by ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopic data. The flavonoids 1 and 3 were the most active compounds; they markedly reduced the viability of Leishmania amastigotes.

2,4,6-Trihydroxybenzoic acid was converted by partial methylation, formylation, and then reduction into methyl 2-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl- 4,6-dimethoxybenzoate (5) which proved different from dimethyldegeranylmelicopol. Methyl 6-geranyloxy-2-hydroxy-3- hydroxymethyl-4-methoxybenzoate (4), its neryl analogue (7), and methyl 4-geranyloxy-2-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-6-methoxybenzoate (21) were prepared similarly but all were different from methylmelicopol. From a re-investigation of earlier work, melicopol and methylmelicopol were assigned new structures, 6?-geranyloxy-2,2?,4?-tri-hydroxy-3?- methoxyacetophenone (31) and its 4?-methyl ether derivative (24), respectively. Dimethyldegeranylmelicopol, 2,6?-dihydroxy-2?,3?,4?- trimethoxyacetophenone (25), was prepared from antiarol (28) and acetoxyacetonitrile.

In addition to the already known plicatic acid and plicatin, five new lignans have been separated by thin-layer and column chromatography from the hot-water extractive of western red cedar (Thujaplicata Donn) heartwood, and two chemical structures have been identified. These are 2-(4″-hydroxy-3″,5″-dimethoxybenzyl)-3-(4′-hydroxy-3′-methoxybenzyl)-butyrolactone (thujaplicatin methyl ether) (I) and 2-(3″,4″-dihydroxy-5″-methoxybenzyl)-3-(4′-hydroxy-3′-methoxybenzyl)-butyrolactone (thujaplicatin) (II). The former is the first known example of a lignan containing a guaiacyl and a syringyl nucleus and the first example of a syringyl-group lignan isolated from a conifer. Proof of structure by synthesis, degradation, analysis, and various spectra is presented. The other components which apparently belong to this lignan series are still being investigated.

Camellia chrysantha (the golden camellia, golden tea) is a species of evergreen shrub or small tree belonging to the family Theaceae. The flowers and the leaves of this plant are used as tea and drank for its health benefits. The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical constituents of the flowers of Camellia chrysantha. Five flavonoids were isolated from the flowers of Camellia chrysantha (Theaceae), including (+)-catechin (1), (-)-epicatechin (2), quercetin (3), quercetin-3-O-methyl ether (4) and kaempferol (5). Their chemical structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analysis and by comparison with those reported in the literature. Among five compounds, compounds 4 was isolated for the first time from this species.

Through careful choice of reaction conditions, alkylation of estradiol with chloromethyl methyl ether may yield either the 3,17β-bis(methoxymethy1) ether or the 3-methoxymethyl ether derivative. Treatment of either of these protected estradiols with s- butyllithium, then with trimethylsilyl chloride affords, regioselectively, the 2-trimethylsilyl derivatives which can conveniently be converted into 2-bromo-or 2-iodo-estradiol.

The pharmacological actions of a new alkaloid, capaurine, and its O-methyl ether derivative have been studied. Capaurine was isolated from Corydalis aurea, a member of the plant family Fumariaceae, which is indigenous to Canada.The base produces paralysis in frogs and convulsions in mice and rabbits, both effects being of central origin. The heart is depressed as is the smooth muscle of the intestine and uterus. Capaurine O-methyl ether is a convulsant drug exhibiting actions on the heart and smooth muscle quite similar to those of the alkaloid itself.

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films have attracted much attention due to their useful properties and applications. These properties are quite variable depending on film preparation techniques and conditions, DLC is a metastable state formed from highly non-equilibrium phases during the condensation of ionized particles. The nature of the films is therefore strongly dependent on their particular chemical structures. In this study, electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) was used to investigate how the chemical bonding configurations of DLC films vary as a function of sputtering power densities. The electrical resistivity of the films was determined, and related to their chemical structure.DLC films with a thickness of about 300Å were prepared at 0.1, 1.1, 2.1, and 10.0 watts/cm2, respectively, on NaCl substrates by d.c. magnetron sputtering. EEL spectra were obtained from diamond, graphite, and the films using a JEOL 200 CX electron microscope operating at 200 kV. A Gatan parallel EEL spectrometer and a Kevex data aquisition system were used to analyze the energy distribution of transmitted electrons. The electrical resistivity of the films was measured by the four point probe method.
