Indium(III)-Catalyzed Stereoselective Synthesis of Tricyclic Frameworks by Cascade Cycloisomerization Reactions of Aryl 1,5-Enynes
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-25)
[Abstract] The indium(III)-catalyzed cascade cycloisomerization reaction of 1,5-enynes with pendant aryl nucleophiles is reported. The reaction proceeds in cascade under mild reaction conditions, using InI₃ (5 mol %) as a ...
Cytotoxic furanoditerpenes from the sponge Spongia tubulifera collected in the Mexican Caribbean
(MDPI, 2019-07-16)
[Abstract] Two new spongian furanoditerpenes, 3β-hydroxyspongia-13(16),14-dien-2-one (1) and 19-dehydroxy-spongian diterpene 17 (2), along with five known terpenes, the spongian furanoditerpenes 9-nor-3-hydroxyspongia-3, ...
Absolute Configuration by Vibrational Circular Dichroism of Anti-inflammatory Macrolide Briarane Diterpenoids From the Gorgonian Briareum Asbestinum
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-12)
[Abstract] The four new briarane diterpenoids 2-butyryloxybriarane B-3 (2), 9-acetylbriarenolide S (3), briarenolide W (4), and 12-isobriarenolide P (5), along with briarane B-3 (1) and the five known diterpenes 6–10 were ...
Relative Configuration of Micrograms of Natural Compounds Using Proton Residual Chemical Shift Anisotropy
(Nature, 2020-09-01)
[Abstract] 3D molecular structure determination is a challenge for organic compounds or natural products available in minute amounts. Proton/proton and proton/carbon correlations yield the constitution. J couplings and ...
In-Depth Analysis of the Role of the Acinetobactin Cluster in the Virulence of Acinetobacter baumannii
(Frontiers, 2021-10-05)
[Abstract] Acinetobacter baumannii is a multidrug-resistant pathogen that represents a serious threat to global health. A. baumannii possesses a wide range of virulence factors that contribute to the bacterial pathogenicity. ...
Natural Products from Antarctic Colonial Ascidians of the Genera Aplidium and Synoicum: Variability and Defensive Role
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2012)
Ascidians have developed multiple defensive strategies mostly related to physical, nutritional or chemical properties of the tunic. One of such is chemical defense based on secondary metabolites. We analyzed a series of ...
Development of Antibacterial Steel Surfaces Through Laser Texturing
(AIP Publishing, 2020-09-22)
[Abstract] The aim of the present study was to develop novel antibacterial touch surfaces through the laser texturing optimization of stainless steel. A wide range of laser fluence (2.11 J/cm2–5.64 J/cm2) and scanning ...
In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of the Efficacy of Bromoageliferin, an Alkaloid Isolated from the Sponge Agelas dilatata, against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(MDPI, 2020-06-23)
[Abstract] The pyrrole-imidazoles, a group of alkaloids commonly found in marine sponges belonging to the genus Agelas, display a wide range of biological activities. Herein, we report the first chemical study of the ...
Synthesis of Acetylhomoagmatine
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2006)
The first total synthesis of acetylhomoagmatine, a natural product isolated form the methanolic extracts from the sponge Cliona celata, is performed in four steps in a very high yield.
Enigmazole C: A Cytotoxic Macrocyclic Lactone and Its Ring-Opened Derivatives from a New Species of Homophymia Sponge
(American Chemical Society, 2022-03-02)
[Abstract] A new macrolide, enigmazole C (1), and two additional analogues, enigmazoles E (2) and D (3), were obtained from a new species of the Homophymia genus as part of an ongoing discovery program at PharmaMar to study ...
