Four compounds were isolated from a petroleum ether extract of the pericarp of Lansium domesticum collected in Quang Nam Province. Their structures were determined using NMR (1H NMR, 13C NMR, HSQC, HMBC, and COSY) techniques. The compounds were two sesquiterpenoids, 6α,9β-dihydroxyeudesma-4(15)- ene and aphanamol II, along with two onocerane triterpenoids, 3β-hydroxyonocera-8(26),14-diene- 21-one and ,β-onoceradienedione. This is the first time that 6α,9β-dihydroxyeudesma-4(15)-ene has been found in nature.

Hydrocarbons, aliphatic alcohols, triterpenes and sterols were shown to occur in the herb, <em>Tragopogon orientalis</em> L. The following were obtained in crystalline form: n-triacontan, hexacosanol, (β-amyrin and lupeol. The presence of (β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, cholesterol and four unidentified sterols was demonstrated by gas chromatography.

Abstract An investigation of the petroleum ether extract from Ixeris chinensis Nakai has led to the isolation of a new compound, 3-O-acetyl-22,28-cyclobauer-7-en-3β-ol (1), together with four known compounds which have been isolated from this plant for the first time, namely taraxast-20-en-3β-ol (2), 3-O-acetyl-taraxast-20-en-3β-ol (3), taraxast-20(30)-en-3β-ol (4), and 3-O-acetyl-taraxast-20(30)- en-3β-ol (5). The structures of the isolated compounds have been elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods including UV, IR, ESI-MS, 1D NMR, 2D NMR techniques, and by comparison with data reported in the literature. All compounds have been evaluated for their activity against various bacteria and shown to give good results

Two new compounds were identified as 2-ethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-6-hydroxy-methylene-1-carboxylic acid and 3b-hydroxy-lup-20(29)-en-28-oic acid, respectively, from the petroleum ether extracts of Cleome rutidosperma plant. These two constituents is the first time occurrence in this plant. The structures of the two different type of compounds are elucidated with the help of UV, IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, COSY, DEPT 90, DEPT 135 and mass spectral data.   Keywords: Cleome rutidosperm DC; isolation; spectral analysis

Two known pregnane type of alkaloids, axillaridine A and spiropachysine, and an unidentified pregane alkaloid along with oleanolic acid and stigmasteryl glucoside have been isolated from chloroform extract of the aerial parts of Sarcococca hookeriana. The structures of the alkaloids are established on the basis of spectral analysis of 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, HMQC, COSY and HMBC spectrum. All compounds were isolated for the first time from S. hookeriana. So far, species of Sarcococca was not reported to contain spiropachysine which was initially reported as a novel alkaloid from Pachysandra terminalis SIEB. et ZUCC.(Buxaceae).DOI: 10.3126/jncs.v21i0.215Journal of Nepal Chemical Society Vol.21 2006 pp.8-15

Phytochemical studies on the petroleum ether extract of the roots of Eupatorium odoratum have resulted in the isolation of a novel triterpene, 3β -hydroxy-28-carboxyolean-12-ene (1) along with seven known compounds - poriferasterol (2), octadecane (3), butyrospermol acetate (4), bis(2- ethylhexyl)phthalate (5), chrysophanol (6), physcion (7) and palmitic acid (8). Novel compound 1 is designated as eupatoric acid. Compounds 2 - 7 were reported here for the first time from this plant. Palmitic acid (8) was also isolated for the first time from this root. The structure of the novel compound was established on the basis of spectroscopic studies. The cytotoxicity of the compounds 1 - 7 was studied using a lethality test against Artemia salina (brine shrimp).

Abstract This study revealed a differential cytotoxic activity of the petroleum ether extract (IC50=5 μg/mL) of the resinous exudates of Commiphora molmol against two mouse cell lines KA31T and NIH3T3 (untransformed and transformed mouse fibroblasts, respectively). Four new compounds (1–4) and five known compounds (5–9) were isolated from the petroleum ether extract. The identity of these new compounds was determined as γ-elemane lactone (1), 5-αH,8-βH-eudesma-1,3,7(11)-trien-8,12-olide (2), 2-hydroxy-11,12-dihydrofuranodiene (3), and 2-hydroxyfuranodiene (4). 1 and 2 displayed the highest cytotoxic activity against NIH3T3 cells. 7 and 9 exhibited moderate cytotoxic activity against KA31T cells. Compounds 3–6 showed weak cytotoxic activities against both cell lines. These results may explain the high efficacy of the petroleum ether fraction in several myrrh-derived pharmaceutical preparations.

Background & Objective: A series of novel 3-Substituted-1,3,4,5-Tetrahydro-2H-benzo [b] azepine-2-one Derivatives (4, 5, 7, 10, 12, 5a-j, 8a-e) were synthesized from 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-1- naphthalenone. The structures of these compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MASS spectra and elemental analysis. Their anticonvulsant activity was evaluated by the maximal electroshock (MES) test, subcutaneous pentylenetetrazol (scPTZ) test, and their neurotoxicity was evaluated by the rotarod neurotoxicity test. Compound 4 showed the maximum anticonvulsant activity against the maximal electroshock test (ED50=26.4, PI =3.2) and against the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazol test (ED50=40.2, PI =2.1). Conclusion: Possible structure-activity relationship was discussed.
