Aim: To synthesizs of derivatives of (9S)-12-methylene erythromycin possessed potent antibacterial activity.

Methods: Using erythromycin A as a starting material, via two intermediate compounds protected 12,21-dehydroerythromycin A and 6,7: 12,21-didehydro erythromycin A, several 9-O, 11-O-ethylidene compounds were obtained. During this process, benzyl and isopropyl have been selected as the protecting group. The structures of compounds obtained were confirmed with 13C NMR and MS-FAB. Their antibacterial activity in vitro was tested.

Results: Eleven derivatives of erythromycin were synthesized. Five of them were unknown compounds.

Conclusion: The preliminary biological test showed that two target compounds exhibited less potent antibacterial activity in vitro.

The magnetization strategy of isoquinoline alkaloids has been successfully used in the extraction and isolation, but the effect of the magnetization on biological activities of those alkaloids still deserves further investigation. Therefore, the antibacterial, lipid-lowering and antioxidant activities of five isoquinoline alkaloids (berberine, tetrahydroberberine, palmatine, tetrahydropalmatine and tetrahydropapavine) before and after magnetization were compared in this study, and the results showed that the relevant activities were enhanced after magnetization. Additionally, among the five magnetic derivatives studied, berberine magnetic derivative ([Ber·H][FeCl]) had the best antibacterial effect on S.

, known as "Dhumuugaa" in Afan Oromo and "Sensel" or "Smiza" in Amharic, is traditionally used to treat ailments such as scabies, fever, asthma, diarrhea, malaria, and more. This study explored the chemical composition and biological activity of its extracts and isolated compounds. The essential oils were extracted using the hydrodistillation method, and their chemical composition was evaluated using GC-MS.
