The exploration into the scope of a silver-catalyzed cyclization (AgCC) of propargyl benzoates for accessing pyran ring systems has been reported. The impact of the degree of substitution, nature of the substitution on the carbon backbone/benzoate moiety, and stereochemistry has been evaluated. The application of this methodology to the synthesis of the C1-C12 southern fragment of madeirolide A is disclosed.

Flavonoids have been documented to have good antioxidant activities in vitro. In recent years, reports on the antioxidant activities of flavone glycosides, a subclass of flavonoids, have attracted great attention. Despite the wealth of information on this subject, the correlation between structure and function is not well understood.

The antioxidant properties of some 3-dithiocarbamic flavanones were investigated. Based on a previous study, we selected three frameworks that proved to be the most active ones. By varying the nature of the substituent at the para-position of flavanone ring , a structure-activity relationship study on radical scavenging activities was performed.

The current study aimed to detect the mutagenic impacts of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), which is produced by Aspergillus group fungi, via a high-plant genotoxicity test. Different durations of treatment (3 h, 6 h, and 12 h) were used to treat the Vicia faba root tips with varying concentrations of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) following the approved protocol for plant assays published by the International Program on Chemical Safety (IPCS) and the World Health Organization (WHO). The data obtained indicated that AFB1 not only has the ability to induce various alterations in the process of mitosis, ranging from increasing to decreasing mitotic and phase indices but also leads to many mitotic aberrations.

As a both edible and medicinal plant, Hypericum patulum (Hypericaceae) is used as a natural herbal tea, scented tea, and folk medicine. In this study, eight undescribed bicyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol-related meroterpenoids named hyperpatins A-H, along with eight known ones, were isolated from this plant. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic techniques, chemical method, X-ray crystallographic experiments, and electronic circular dichroism analyses.

(-)-Exiguolide is a marine macrolide natural product with potent anticancer activity. In this study, the total synthesis of exiguolide stereoisomers, (9)-exiguolide, (9,13)-exiguolide, and (9,13,19)-exiguolide, was achieved by capitalizing on our macrocyclization/transannular pyran cyclization strategy. The impact of the stereochemical permutation on the reactivity of advanced intermediates, the conformation of the macrocyclic skeleton, and the antiproliferative activity against human cancer cells were investigated in detail.
