Isolation and Structure Elucidation of Pyridine Alkaloids from the Aerial www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Isolation and structure elucidation of pyridine alkaloids from the aerial parts of the Mongolian medicinal plant Caryopteris mongolica Bunge Dumaa Mishig1,2,3, Margit Gruner1, Tilo Lübken1, Chunsriimyatav Ganbaatar1,2, Duger Regdel2 & Hans‑Joachim Knölker1* The seven pyridine alkaloids 1–7, the favonoid acacetin (8), and L‑proline anhydride (9) have been isolated from the aerial parts of the Mongolian medicinal plant Caryopteris mongolica Bunge. The structures of the natural products 1–9 have been assigned by MS, as well as IR, 1D NMR (1H, 13C, DEPT), and 2D NMR (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY) spectroscopic methods. The compounds 2 and 4–7 represent new chemical structures. Acacetin (8) and L‑proline anhydride (9) have been obtained from C. mongolica for the frst time. Caryopteris mongolica Bunge is a deciduous shrub and belongs to the Verbenaceae family. C. mongolica which is widely distributed in the mountainous and Gobi regions of Mongolia (Khentei, Khangai, Mongol-Daurian, Mid- dle Khalkha, Mongolian Altai, East Mongolia Valley of Lakes, Govi-Altai, East Govi, Trans-Altai Gobi, Gobi and Alashan Gobi)1. In fact only this species of Caryopteris is growing in Mongolia, whereas about 16 species of this genus occur all over the world. In traditional Mongolian medicine, the aerial parts of this plant have been prepared as decoction and used for haemorrhage, increasing muscle strength, urinary excretion, pulmonary windy oedema and chronic bronchitis2. In Chinese folk medicine, Caryopteris ternifora has been used as anti- pyretic, detoxifying, expectorant, and anti-infammatory agent and for the treatment of cold, tuberculosis and rheumatism3. Previous chemical investigations of Caryopteris mongolica showed the presence of mono- and sesquiterpenoids4, hypolaetin-7-glucoside5, iridoid glucosides and steroids6. From the roots of this plant, the abietane ortho-quinone caryopteron A and derivatives were isolated 7. In our previous phytochemical investiga- tion of the aerial parts of C. mongolica, we have identifed some phenolic compounds such as acacetin, apigenin, luteolin, and cafeic acid 8. From other species of Caryopteris steroidal and iridoid glucosides, phenylethanoids, diterpenoids, α-caryopterone, a new pyranojuglone, clandonoside and its acetylated derivatives, favonoids and sterols have been isolated 9–13. In the present paper, we describe the isolation of pyridine monoterpene alkaloids, isoquinoline alkaloids, a dipyrrolopyrazine, and a favonoid (acacetin) from the aerial parts of C. mongolica and their structure elucidation using MS, as well as IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods. Experimental section General experimental procedures. Flash column chromatography (FCC) was performed using silica gel 200–300 mesh from Acros Organics occasionally on a Büchi Sepacore system equipped with a UV moni- tor. For thin layer chromatography (TLC), silica gel plates Merck 60 F 254 were used. Spots detected on the TLC plates under the UV lamp at 254 or 365 nm were visualized by spraying Dragendorf’s reagent. Te EI-MS were recorded on a Finnigan MAT-95 mass spectrometer (70 eV) and the ESI-MS on an Bruker Esquire LC with an ion trap detector. Positive and negative ions were detected. ESI-HRMS were recorded on a Waters Xevo G2-XS QTOF mass spectrometer. Te 1D and 2D NMR spectra (600 MHz 1H NMR and 150 MHz 13C NMR) were measured on a Bruker AVANCE III 600 MHz spectrometer using CDCl3 or CD3OD as solvents. Te chemi- cal shifs δ are reported in ppm using either CHCl 3/CDCl3 (δH = 7.25, δC = 77.0) or CH3OH/CD3OD (δH = 3.31, δC = 49.0 ppm) as internal standard relative to TMS.

M. B. K. Kourra and N. Cramer* Disulfide bridges play a crucial role in defining and rigidifying the three-dimensional structure of peptides. However, disulfides are inherently unstable in reducing environments. Consequently, the development of strategies aiming to circumvent these deficiencies – ideally with little structural disturbance – are highly sought after. Herein, we report a simple protocol converting the disulfide bond of peptides into highly stable methylene thioacetal. The transformation occurs under mild, biocompatible conditions, enabling the conversion of unprotected native peptides into analogues with enhanced stability.

Thomas, Ph.D. Dean, School of Graduate Studies ii Abstract Fisher, Jennifer A., M.S., Department of Chemistry, Wright State University, 2005. Bismuth Triflate Catalyzed Friedel-Crafts Acylations of Sydnones. In the present work, suitably functionalized arylsydnones were used to synthesize a variety of 4-acyl-sydnones and diacyl sydnones, both as potential precursors to novel sydnoquinolines. The approach to the diacyl species is based on the discovery that activated sydnones brominate in both the 4 position of the sydnone ring and on the phenyl ring. Thus, it seemed likely that Friedel-Crafts reactions on an activated sydnone would give diacylated species for McMurray coupling to sydnoquinolines. Friedel-Crafts acylations on the 4 position of the sydnone ring have been achieved in high yields using 4 equivalents of various alkyl anhydrides, 25 mol % of bismuth triflate and lithium perchlorate in anhydrous acetonitrile at 95 oC.

Tung oil was modified with three different acrylate molecules: 3- methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (MAS), 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFM) and triallyl ether acrylate (TAEA) at atmospheric pressure. The modified tung oils were characterized using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and FT-IR. The molecular weight and distribution were characterized using GPC, and MALDI-TOF. The effects of new acrylate modified tung oils on the properties of alkyd-based coatings film were investigated including hardness, solvent resistance, flexibility, gloss, impact resistance, contact angle, tensile, and thermo-mechanical properties. The viscosity can be reduced to the application viscosity of the alkyd by the reactive diluents. Drying time study showed that drying time can be altered by types and level of diluent added. All the results revealed that modified tung oils can be used as volatile organic compound (VOC) compliant in alkyd systems.

ETUK, JOSEPH G. ATAI AND AYI A. AYI (Received 15 January 2014; Revision Accepted 14 March 2014) ABSTRACT The condensation of a para-phenylenediamine and two equivalent of para-hydroxybenzaldehyde in the presence of 2+ o Zn ions yielded a metallo-ligand of composition [ZnL2Ph(NH 3)2(H 2O) 2] I. Compound I melts at 126 C and is soluble in common organic solvents such as ethanol (C 2H5OH), dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO). The scanning electron micrograph of compound I reveals a rectangular block crystals. The metalloligand synthesized was reacted with ortho-phosphoric acid under hydrothermal conditions at 105 oC to obtain colourless crystals of compound II with composition [Zn 4L2(HPO 4)6(H 2O) 3]. Compound II is insoluble in common organic solvents and melts above 300 oC. The structure of compounds I and II have been studied with the help of Infrared and UV- visible spectroscopy. The complexes show broad band absorption in the region 3760 – 3765.71 cm -1 due to the symmetric stretching vibration of the co-ordinated water molecule. KEYWORDS: Hydrothermal reaction, metalloligand, parahydroxybenzaldehyde, para-phenylenediamine, zinc phosphate. INTRODUCTION hydroxybenzaldehyde will condense with the amine groups of the paraphenylene diamine to give a new Metal organic framework (MOFs), also known functional group, the azo-methine group (-C=N), while as co-ordination polymers, are formed by the self the hydroxyl groups of the 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde left assembly of metallic centres and binding organic linkers are coordinated to the zinc metal ion.

    ARTICLE Received 20 Jul 2015 | Accepted 16 Sep 2015 | Published 29 Oct 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms9697 OPEN Efficient purification of ethene by an ethane-trapping metal-organic framework Pei-Qin Liao1, Wei-Xiong Zhang1, Jie-Peng Zhang1 & Xiao-Ming Chen1 Separating ethene (C2H4) from ethane (C2H6) is of paramount importance and difficulty. Here we show that C2H4 can be efficiently purified by trapping the inert C2H6 in a judiciously designed metal-organic framework. Under ambient conditions, passing a typical cracked gas mixture (15:1 C2H4/C2H6) through 1 litre of this C2H6 selective adsorbent directly produces 56 litres of C2H4 with 99.95% þ purity (required by the C2H4 polymerization reactor) at the outlet, with a single breakthrough operation, while other C2H6 selective materials can only produce ca. p1 litre, and conventional C2H4 selective adsorbents require at least four adsorption–desorption cycles to achieve the same C2H4 purity. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction and computational simulation studies showed that the exceptional C2H6 selectivity arises from the proper positioning of multiple electronegative and electropositive functional groups on the ultramicroporous pore surface, which form multiple C–H ÁÁÁN hydrogen bonds with C2H6 instead of the more polar competitor C2H4. 1 MOE Key Laboratory of Bioinorganic and Synthetic Chemistry, School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou 510275, P.R.
