Objective: To study the chemical constituents from the aerial part of Euphorbia chrysocoma.
Methods: All compounds were isolated and purified by many methods, including siliga gel and reversed phase RP-18 column chromatographies, preparative thin layer chromatography, Sephadex LH-20, and recrystallization. Their structures were mainly elucidated by ESI-MS and NMR spectra and their physical characters.
Results: Six compounds were isolated from the petroleum ether section from 75% ethanol extraction of the material. Their structures were identified as taraxerol (1), epitaraxerol (2), beta-sistosterol (3), beta-sitostenone (4), jolkinolide E (5), and sesamin (6).
Conclusion: Compounds 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 are isolated from this plant for the first time.

The physical and chemical properties of wild berry fruits change dramatically during development, and the ripe berries host species-specific endophytic communities. However, the development of fungal endophytic communities during berry ripening is unknown. We studied bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus L.

(±)-Melichuniiones A and B (1 and 2), two novel enantiomeric pairs of lignan-phloroglucinol hybrids with an unprecedented beadlike core were isolated from the leaves of , together with new analogues 3-6. Compounds 1 and 2 possess a unique dispiro [furan-2,5'-cyclopenta[]furan-2',3''-furan] 5/5/5/5 tetracyclic skeleton. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations.

Coral reefs are hotspots of marine biodiversity, which results in the synthesis of a wide variety of compounds with unique molecular scaffolds, and bioactivities, rendering reefs an ecosystem of interest. The chemodiversity stems from the intricate relationships between inhabitants of the reef, as the chemistry produced partakes in intra- and interspecies communication, settlement, nutrient acquisition, and defense. However, the coral reefs are declining at an unprecedented rate due to climate change, pollution, and increased incidence of pathogenic diseases.

An unrevealed dihydroflavone-monoterpene conjugate (1), two unrevealed kavalactones (2-3, including one with an uncommon side chain), and thirteen previously identified compounds (4-16) were extracted from Alpinia katsumadai Hayata. seeds. The two-dimension structures of the new compounds were authenticated utilizing HRESIMS as well as NMR spectral analysis, while their absolute chiral configurations were ascertained either by correlating the experimental and simulated values of electronic circular dichroism (ECD) patterns or conducting X-ray diffraction experiments.
