Treatment of 3-hydroxy-beta-lapachone 4 with ylide 5 gave the coumarin derivative 7a, which was transformed to compounds 10-14. Compound 14 was then transformed to benzo[f]seselin 15 as well as to benzo[l]khellactones 16, 18 from which the title compounds 17, 19(I), 19(II), 20, 21(I) and 21(II) were prepared. All the tested compounds were found to interact with DPPH in a concentration and time dependent manner. All the tested compounds highly inhibited the soybean lipoxygenase, whereas compounds 12, 17 and 19(II) highly compete with DMSO for (*)OH. Compounds 7a, 7b, 12 and 17 induced at 48.7-58.9% protection against carrageenin induced rat paw edema.

NIST Mass Spectral Libraries in the Context of the Circular Economy of Plastics.

J Am Soc Mass Spectrom

January 2025

Mass Spectrometry Data Center, Biomolecular Measurement Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Gaithersburg, Maryland, 20899, United States.

The Mass Spectrometry Data Center (MSDC) has recently started improving existing libraries and creating new ones for identifying and analyzing plastics-related compounds (PRC) and materials (PRM) as part of the NIST circular economy program. PRC are small molecules of dissimilar chemical nature; hence, to increase coverage, we have used three types of ionizations: EI, ESI, and APCI. PRM are solids that include polymers, polymer mixtures, and commercial plastics, so we have used pyrolysis-gas chromatography (py-GC-MS) to create a new searchable library.

An Automated Workflow to Discover the Structure-Stability Relations for Radiation Hard Molecular Semiconductors.

J Am Chem Soc

January 2025

Institute of Materials for Electronics and Energy Technology (i-MEET), Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Martensstraße 7, 91058 Erlangen, Germany.

Emerging photovoltaics for outer space applications are one of the many examples where radiation hard molecular semiconductors are essential. However, due to a lack of general design principles, their resilience against extra-terrestrial high-energy radiation can currently not be predicted. In this work, the discovery of radiation hard materials is accelerated by combining the strengths of high-throughput, lab automation and machine learning.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza A virus are primarily transmitted through droplets or aerosols from patients. The inactivation effects of existing virus control techniques may vary depending on the environmental factors. Therefore, it is important to establish a suitable evaluation system for assessing virus control techniques against airborne viruses for further real-world implementation.

Natural stilbene compounds, such as resveratrol and pterostilbene, have been focused on owing to their diverse biological activities associated with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties. However, their low water solubility limits their advanced applications. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of selected stilbene compounds (resveratrol, oxyresveratrol, gnetol, piceatannol, and pterostilbene) and their water-soluble derivatives (piceid, resveratrol polysaccharide, pterostilbene trisaccharide, and pterostilbene polysaccharide) against UVA-, UVB irradiation, tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH)- and hydrogen peroxide (HO)-induced injury in human epidermal cells.

Exhaled Breath Analysis Using a Novel Electronic Nose for Different Respiratory Disease Entities.

Lung

January 2025

Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, No.7, Chung Shan S. Rd., Zhongzheng District, Taipei City, 100225, Taiwan.

Purpose: Electronic noses (eNose) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are two important breath analysis approaches for differentiating between respiratory diseases. We evaluated the performance of a novel electronic nose for different respiratory diseases, and exhaled breath samples from patients were analyzed by GC-MS.

Materials And Methods: Patients with lung cancer, pneumonia, structural lung diseases, and healthy controls were recruited (May 2019-July 2022).
