Four new compounds including two new sesquiterpenoid dimers, commiphoroids E (1) and F (2), a new triterpenoid (3), and a new sesquiterpenoid (4), along with three known terpenoids (5−7) were isolated from Resina Commiphora, whose structures were identified by NMR spectra, HRESIMS, and X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 both bear an O-bridge ring and feature a plausible [4 + 2] Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction. Antimycobacterial activities show that all the tested compounds (200 μM) could inhibit the growth of both sensitive and clinically multi-drug resistant (MDR) isolated strains. In addition, cellular toxicity of the isolates against human cancer cells and THP-1 monocyte cells was examined.

AbstractTwo new arborinane-type triterpenes, myrotheols A (1) and B (2), two new arborinane-type glycosides, myrothesides C (3) and D (4), together with four known diterpenes (5 – 8) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the endolichenic fungus Myrothecium inundatum. The structures of new compounds 1 – 4 were elucidated by NMR and MS analyses. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment. Compounds 3 and 4 represent the first two natural 4-O-methyl-α-D-mannosides. Compounds 1 – 8 exhibited cytotoxicity against K562 and RKO human cancer cell lines.

The 1-amino-2-neopentylsilenes 5-8 are formed in the reaction of LitBu with the aminovinylsilanes 1-4 in n-pentane (addition of LitBu to the vinylic double bond with subsequent 1,2-elimination of LiCl). The α-Li adducts initially formed are trapped by Me3SiOSO2CF3 to yield α-SiMe3-silanes. The silenes undergo insertion reactions into the Si—O bond of Me3SiOMe. In the absence of any trapping reagent dimerization occurs. One of the 1,3-disilacyclobutanes thus formed (15) could be examined by X-ray diffraction. Reacting with 1,3-butadienes the chlorosubstituted silenes 5 and 8 yield [2 + 2]-cycloaddition products. With 1,3-cyclohexadiene Diels-Alder adducts are also obtained, but with cyclopentadiene the [4+2] adducts are formed exclusively. Products of an ene-reaction are observed upon treatment of 2,5-norbornadiene with the silenes 5 and 8.The methylsubstituted silene 6 does not undergo any cycloaddition reaction at all, while from silene 7 only traces of the cycloadducts are produced. Both species mainly yield the dimers. The preference for the [2+2] reaction type, exhibited by the silenes 5 and 8, is due to their polarity. The almost complete absence or low yield of any cycloaddition products from 6 or 7 can be correlated with the energy levels of their frontier molecular orbitals. The distribution of the disilacyclobutanes and cycloaddition product isomers is explained by the characteristics of the stereospecifically Ε-configurated silenes. The product distribution can also be rationalized considering the ambiphilic nature of the system ViRR′SiCl/Li1Bu.

The enantiomerically pure and enzymatically derived cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol 2 engages in a diastereofacially selective Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction with commercially available lactone 3 at 19 kbar to afford adduct 4, which is readily elaborated to the diene-ol 13. Treatment of this last compound with KH/18[crown]-6 resulted in successive anionic oxy-Cope and 1,2-Wittig rearrangements to afford acyloin 14 embodying the cis-decalin core associated with the natural product phomopsidin (1). Compound 16 also engages in an anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement reaction to give, depending on the molar equivalents of base used, either the cis-decalin 17 or the hexahydroindene 18. The structure of compound 18 has been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

A green and efficient regioselective protocol was developed for the preparation of novel isoxazolines and isoxazoles of N-saccharin derivatives via the water-promoted cycloaddition reaction of nitrile oxides with alkenes and alkynes. It is noteworthy that KI/Oxone/water-promoted one-pot three-component reactions of aldehyde, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and alkene or alkyne were observed to be very satisfactory. The synthesis of all adducts (4a-j/5a-j) has been carried out by this method with high to excellent yields (70-95%) at 25°C within 30 min, using ultrasonic probe. All the new compounds were thoroughly characterized by spectroscopic techniques and also 5b, 5c and 5f were structurally identified by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. X-ray crystallography structure analysis clearly supported the regioselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction.

A new spirooxindole hybrid engrafted imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole core structure was designed and achieved via [3+2] cycloaddition reaction approach. One multi-component reaction between the ethylene derivative based imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole scaffold with 6-Cl-isatin and the secondary amine under heat conditions afforded the desired compound in a stereoselective manner. The relative absolute configuration was assigned based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Hirshfeld calculations for 4 revealed the importance of the H…H (36.8%), H…C (22.9%), Cl…H (10.4%) and S…H (6.6%), as well as the O…H (4.7%), N…H (5.3%), Cl…C (1.6%), Cl…O (1.0%) and N…O (0.5%) contacts in the crystal stability. DFT calculations showed excellent straight-line correlations (R2 = 0.9776–0.9962) between the calculated and experimental geometric parameters. The compound has polar nature (3.1664 Debye). TD-DFT and GIAO calculations were used to assign and correlate the experimental UV-Vis and NMR spectra, respectively.

2-Phenylcyclododecanone and 2-cyclohexylcyclododecanone derivatives were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HR-ESI-MS and X-ray diffraction. Their preferred conformations were analyzed by the coupling constants in the 1H NMR spectra and X-ray diffraction, which showed the skeleton ring of these derivatives containing [3333]-2-one conformation, and the phenyl groups were located at the side-exo position of [3333]-2-one conformation due to the strong π-π repulsive interaction between the π- electron of benzene ring and π-electron of carbonyl group. The cyclohexyl groups were located at the corner-syn or the side-exo position of [3333]-2-one conformation depending on the hindrance of the other substituted groups. The π-π electron effect played a crucial role in efficiently controlling the preferred conformation of 2-aromatic cyclododecanone and the other 2-aromatic macrocyclic derivatives with the similar preferred square and rectangular conformations.

The 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 carbaborane reacts with sodium in liquid ammonia with the formation of 6-CB9H12- which was used as a starting compound for preparing the 4-CB8H14, 9-L-6-CB9H13 (L = (CH3)2S, CH3CN and P(C6H5)3), 1-(η5-C5H5)-1,2-FeCB9H10-, and 2,3-(η5-C5H5)2-2,31-Co2CB9H10- carboranes. The 4-CB8H14 compound was dehydrogenated at 623 K to give 4-(7)-CB8H12 carborane. Base degradation of 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 in methanol resulted in the formation of 3,4-μ-N(CH3)3CH-B5H10. The structure of all compounds was proposed on the basis of their 11B and 1H NMR spectra and X-ray diffraction was used in the case of the transition metal complexes.

The axially chiral bis(α-amino acid)s cis-2 and trans-2 as possible building blocks for polymeric structures of novel type of helicity were prepared. Their configuration has been determined by NMR spectroscopy and, in the case of the trans-isomer, confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Analogous pair of stereoisomeric diacids cis-3 and trans-3, devoid of the amino groups, was also prepared and their configuration assigned. The observed differences in the NMR spectra of cis- and trans-isomers of 2 and 3 are discussed from the viewpoint of their different symmetry properties.
