The use of copaiba oil has been reported since the 16th century in Amazon traditional medicine, especially as an anti-inflammatory ingredient and for wound healing. The use of copaiba oil continues today, and it is sold in various parts of the world, including the United States. Copaiba oil contains mainly sesquiterpenes, bioactive compounds that are popular for their positive effect on human health. As part of our ongoing research endeavors to identify the chemical constituents of broadly consumed herbal supplements or their adulterants, copaiba oil was investigated. In this regard, copaiba oil was subjected to repeated silica gel column chromatography to purify the compounds. As a result, one new and seven known sesquiterpenes/sesquiterpenoids were isolated and identified from the copaiba oil. The new compound was elucidated as (E)-2,6,10-trimethyldodec-8-en-2-ol. Structure elucidation was achieved by 1D- and 2D NMR and GC/Q-ToF mass spectral data analyses. The isolated chemical constituents in this study could be used as chemical markers to evaluate the safety or quality of copaiba oil.

Two new flavonol glycosides, rhamnocitrin 3- O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]-β-D-glucopyranoside (1) and quercetin 3- O-6- Z- p-coumaroyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (2), along with 3 flavonol glycosides, isoquercitrin (3), rutin (4), and quercetin 3- O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-galactopyranoside (5), and two known sesquiterpenes, alismol (6) and spathulenol (7), were isolated from the leaves of Phoebe poilanei Kosterm. Their chemical structures were elucidated by analyses of their high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectral data and nuclear magnetic resonance spectral data and comparison with those reported in the literature. Two sesquiterpenes 6 and 7 were found to exhibit moderate cytotoxic activity with IC50 values ranging from 21.6 to 29.8 µM.

Three new aaptamine-type alkaloids, 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dioxoaaptamine (1), 6 -( N-morpholinyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-demethyl(oxy)aaptamine (2) and 3-(methylamino)demethyl(oxy)aaptamine (3), along with known aaptamines were isolated from the sponge Aaptos sp. Their structures were determined on the basis of detailed analysis of their 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and mass spectral data. The isolated compounds induced apoptosis in human leukemia THP-1 cells.

Two antifouling compounds, aureobasidin (1), a new ester with an unusual 4,6-dihydroxydecanoic acid residue, and (3 R,5 S)-3,5-dihydroxydecanoic acid (2), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aureobasidium sp., in addition to (5 R,3 Z)-5-hydroxydec-3-enoic acid (3) and ( R)-3-hydroxydecanoic acid (4). The structures were unambiguously established by IR, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and mass spectral data. Compounds 1-3 were found to be active against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and Staphyllococcus aureus. Compound 3 showed fungistatic activity against Candida albicans.

From the leaves of Tithonia diversifolia, four compounds were isolated and identified. Two of them, the anthraquinone tithoniquinone A (1) with an unusual substitution pattern on the anthraquinone skeleton, and the ceramide, named tithoniamide B (2a), are reported for the first time as natural products. Their structures were determined by comprehensive analyses of their 1D and 2D NMR and electron impact (EI) mass spectral data. The remaining two known compounds were identified as psoralen and l-quebrachitol. Preliminary studies showed that tithoniaquinone A (1) is strongly antibacterial and antifungal against Gram-positive Bacillus megaterium and Microbotryum violaceum, respectively, while psoralen has strong algicidal, fungicidal, and antibacterial activities.

Eight new phenylisoxazole isoniazid derivatives, 3-(2′-fluorophenyl)isoxazole-5-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (1), 3-(2′-methoxyphenyl)isoxazole-5-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (2), 3-(2′-chlorophenyl)isoxazole-5-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (3), 3-(3′-clorophenyl)isoxazole-5-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (4), 3-(4′-bromophenyl)isoxazole-5-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (5), 5-(4′-methoxiphenyl)isoxazole-3-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (6), 5-(4′-methylphenyl)isoxazole-3-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (7), and 5-(4′-clorophenyl)isoxazole-3-carbaldehyde isonicotinylhydrazone (8), have been synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectral data. The 2D NMR (1H-1H NOESY) analysis of 1 and 2 confirmed that these compounds in acetone-d6 are in the trans(E) isomeric form. This evidence is supported by computational calculations which were performed for compounds 1–8, using DFT/B3LYP level with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The in vitro antituberculous activity of all the synthesized compounds was determined against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis standard strains: sensitive H37Rv (ATCC-27294) and resistant TB DM97. All the compounds exhibited moderate bioactivity (MIC = 0.34–0.41 μM) with respect to the isoniazid drug (MIC = 0.91 μM) against the H37Rv sensitive strain. Compounds 6 (X = 4′-OCH3) and 7 (X = 4′-CH3) with MIC values of 12.41 and 13.06 μM, respectively, were about two times more cytotoxic, compared with isoniazid, against the resistant strain TB DM97.

As part of our ongoing research into the pharmacologically active compounds of Chilean flora, here we did phytochemical investigation of Adesmia boronioides Hook.f (fabaceae). (Papilonaceae) leaves. This effort has led to isolation and identification of liqueritigenin, isoliquiritigenin, sesamin, isodrimenin and a kaempferol glycoside, kaempferol 3-O-β-D-[galactopyranosyl  (1–2) rhamnoside]-7-O –α-L-rhamnopyranoside.Compound structures were identified by 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments, mass and UV spectrometry and comparison with data from the literature. This is the first time these compounds have been isolated from this plant’s leaves.These active constituents have been studied further pharmacologically. Antioxidant properties in A. boronioides leaves were determined.
