A diterpene, distanol, from Sideritis distans

1989

Abstract A new diterpene, distanol, has been isolated from the petrol extract of the aerial part of Sideritis distans Wild. Its structure stereochemistry has been assigned by spectroscopic methods.

Synthesis of Naturally Occurring Pyrazine and Imidazole Alkaloids from Botryllus LeachiRID=?a?ID=?a? Dedicated to Prof. G . Märkl on the occasion of …

2004

The synthesis of the naturally occurring and biologically active alkaloids 1 and 2, first isolated from the red ascidian Botryllus leachi by Duran et al. [1], is described and the structure proposed for Botryllazine B (1) is confirmed. The analytical data for 2-(p-hydroxybenzoyl)-4-(p-hydroxyphenyl)imidazole (2) are discussed and compared with the literature. With special emphasis of 1H NMR data the tautomerism of aroylimidazolemethanones is described.

Jatrophane derivatives and a rearranged jatrophane from Euphorbia terracina

1998

Abstract The aerial parts of Euphorbia terracina yielded 11 new jatrophane derivatives as well as a further diterpene displaying the novel 1(15 → 14) abeo -jatrophane framework.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Five-Membered Spiropyrazolones via N-Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC)-Catalyzed [3+2] Annulations

2016

A new synthetic strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of five-membered spiropyrazolones via N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed [3+2] annulations employing enals and unsaturated pyrazolones as substrates has been developed. The new protocol allows the flexible variation of all four substituents of the pharmaceutically important spiropyrazolones in moderate to very good yields and in most cases with excellent diastereoselectivities and good to excellent enantioselectivities.

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis and Stereochemical Studies of 2-Substituted Thiazolidine-4-carboxamide Derivatives.

2010

A series of new 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives which have potentially useful immunological properties, have been synthesized in a stereoselective manner by coupling 2-subsituted thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids with amines or amino esters. The structure of these compounds was established by combination of NMR methods and by X-ray analysis.

Spectroscopic study of polynucleotides in cationic W/O microemulsions

2007

Water has an active and key role in determining the structure of DNA. Entrapment of DNA and of synthetic model polynucleotides in reverse micelles, where the water activity can easily be modulated, may be a useful way of assessing the influence of water on DNA characteristics; it may also offer useful ideas on the problem of how the giant DNA molecule can be confined in the limited space of cell nuclei. The quaternary microemulsion CTAB n-hexane|n-pentanol| water was used to entrap calf thymus DNA, and the model polynucleotides single-strand polyA, single-strand polyT and duplex polyAT. Ultraviolet spectros-copy, specifically the band at 260 nm, was used to compare the pairing of complement…

Why Do Five-Membered Heterocyclic Compounds Sometimes Not Participate in Polar Diels–Alder Reactions?

2013

The reactions of bicyclic enone (BCE, 1) with cyclopentadiene (Cp, 2) and the five-membered heterocyclic compounds (FHCs) furan 3 and N-methyl pyrrole 4 for the construction of polycyclic heterocyclic compounds have been studied at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. No reaction takes place in the absence of Lewis acid (LA) catalysts as a consequence of the high activation energy associated with these reactions. Electrophilic activation of BCE 1 by formation of a complex with the BF3 LA, 1-BF3, and solvent effects favor the reactions. However, a different reactivity is manifested by Cp 2 and FHCs 3 and 4. Thus, while the reaction of 1-BF3 with Cp 2 yields the expected exo [4 + 2] cycloadduct, the react…

Synthesis and structural characterization of cis- and trans-fused 4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydro-2H,4H-1,3-benzodithiines and their 2-methyl and 2,2-dimethy…

2002

Both cis- and trans-fused 4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydro-2H,4H-1,3-benzodithiine together with their 2-methyl and 2,2-dimethyl derivatives were prepared as racemates from the appropriate dithiols obtained via multistep syntheses. The products were characterized by 1 H and 13 C NMR, mass spectrometry, and for two of the cis-fused compounds by X-ray diffraction. 1 H, 1 H vicinal coupling constants indicated that all compounds attain chair-chair conformations as their predominant conformations. All three trans-fused isomers exist in totally biased chair-chair conformations and are essentially conformationally locked, whereas the cis-fused compounds are conformationally mobile and can potentially atta…
