The resin components of different collections of the highly variable Eremophila fraseri F. Muell. Have been examined. Five new eremane diterpene acids have been characterized and evidence for their structures is presented. The structure of a new diterpene, also isolated from E. fraseri, has been determined by X-ray crystallographic methods. The carbon skeleton of this new diterpene incorporates a tricyclo[6.2.1.01,5]undecane ring system.

<p></p><p>We have discovered and studied a <i>tele</i>substitution reaction in a biologically important heterocyclic ring system. Conditions that favour the <i>tele</i>-substitution pathway were identified: the use of increased equivalents of the nucleophile or decreased equivalents of base, or the use of softer nucleophiles, less polar solvents and larger halogens on the electrophile. Using results from X-ray crystallography and isotope labelling experiments a mechanism for this unusual transformation is proposed. We focused on this triazolopyrazine as it is the core structure of the <i>in vivo </i>active anti-plasmodium compounds of Series 4 of the Open Source Malaria consortium.</p> <p> </p> <p>Archive of the electronic laboratory notebook with the description of all conducted experiments and raw NMR data could be accessed via following link <a href="https://ses.library.usyd.edu.au/handle/2123/21890">https://ses.library.usyd.edu.au/handle/2123/21890</a> .

AbstractIn this paper, the synthesis of the carbon skeleton of cotylenin A aglycone is described. The key reactions, including an intramolecular aldol reaction, an aldol coupling reaction, and a ring-closing meta­thesis, allow for the effective and stereoselective access to the carbon skeleton of cotylenin A aglycone. The stereochemistry was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses of related compounds.

The reaction of (C6F5)2BCl with 8-lithio-N,N-dimethyl-1-naphthylamine (1) afforded the fivemembered ring system 8-bis(pentafluorophenyl)boryl-N,N-dimethyl-1-naphthylamine (2) with an intramolecular dative B-N bond. The compound was characterised by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Two new cytochalasans with a rare 6/6/5/5/7 pentacyclic ring system, named chaetoconvosins C−D (1−2), together with two known congeners (3−4), were isolated from the fermentation of an endophytic fungus, Chaetomium sp. SG-01, harbored in the fibrous roots of Schisandra glaucescens Diels. Their structures including the absolute configuration were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic (HRESIMS, NMR, and ECD) and X-ray crystallographic analyses. The TRAIL sensitivity of 1–4 in a TRAIL-resistant HT29 colorectal cancer cell line was evaluated, which revealed that co-treatment of 1–4 at 50 µM with TRAIL (150 ng/mL) reduced the HT29 cell viability by 19.0%, 24.1%, 17.9%, and 15.5%, respectively, compared to treatment with 1–4 alone.

An unusual C18 norditerpenoid, aspergiloid I (1), was isolated from the culture broth of Aspergillus sp. YXf3, an endophytic fungus derived from Ginkgo biloba. Its structure was unambiguously established by analysis of HRMS–ESI and spectroscopic data, and the absolute configuration was determined by low-temperature (100 K) single crystal X-ray diffraction with Cu Kα radiation. This compound is structurally characterized by a new carbon skeleton with an unprecedented 6/5/6 tricyclic ring system bearing an α,β-unsaturated spirolactone moiety in ring B, and represents a new subclass of norditerpenoid, the skeleton of which is named aspergilane. The hypothetical biosynthetic pathway for 1 was also proposed. The cytotoxic, antimicrobial, anti-oxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities of 1 were evaluated.

A proton NMR study was performed on the copper(ll)-ciprofloxacin system. The proton relaxation times (T1) were determined from the titration data in acidic and basic media. In acidic medium the H5 signal is dramatically affected and it is assumed that copper is bonded to the quinolone through carbonyl and one of the carboxyl oxygens. Such bonding is in agreement with the X-ray literature data for the complex [Cu(cf)2]Cl2.6H2O isolated from the slightly acidic solution. There are additional significant changes in T1 of H3′ and H5′ atoms which suggest that the terminal nitrogen atom of the piperazine ring system-N4′ also interacts with copper in the basic conditions. Thus it is plausible that more than one species are present in the solution at high pH values.

1The reaction of ClSO2N = PPh2Cl () with NH3 yields H2NSO2N = PPh2NH2 (2).This compound is converted to Me3Si(H)NSO2N = PPh2N(H)SiMe3 (3) by Me3SiNMe2. 3 reacts with WOCl4 under elimination of (Me3Si)2O and ClSO2NH2 to yield the eight-membered ring system (Cl3WNPPh2N)2 (4).The molecular structure of 4 was investigated by an X-ray structure analysis.
