Both enantiomers of the isomer of neplanocin where the C-4' hydroxymethyl has been displaced to the 6'-position (that is, 6'-isoneplanocin) have been prepared in 5 steps from known, protected iodocyclopentenones. Both products were evaluated against a number of DNA and RNA viruses and found to be inactive. This observation is suggested to be due to the displacement of the C-4' hydroxymethyl of neplanocin (in the D-like form) away from the lysine of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, which is important for inhibition by neplanocin and, in turn, its antiviral activity.

Thirteen glycoside compounds were isolated and purified from 95% ethanol extract of Chrysanthemum indicum by normal and reversed phase silica gels, glucan gel, and high performance liquid chromatography, and their chemical structures were identified by spectroscopic data and physicochemical properties. These compounds were(2S,3R)-2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxymethyl-7-methoxy-2-benzodioxole-5-benzofuranpropanol-10-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(1), 4,6,8-decatriynyl-β-D-glucopyranoside(2), 5-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-2-hydroxy benzoic acid methyl ester(3), citrusin C(4), cuminyl β-D-glucopyranoside(5), benzyl-6-[(2E)-2-butenoate]-β-D-glucopyranoside(6), benzyl β-D-glucoside(7), viridoside(8), phenylethyl β-D-glucopyranoside(9), syringaresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucoside(10), pinoresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucoside(11), isoeucommin A(12), and eucommin A(13). Among them, compound 1 was a new compound.

The molecular modification of chlorogenic acid (1) through γ-irradiation resulted in the formation of five new products: chlorogenosins A (2), B (3), C (4), D (5), and E (6) along with known compounds rosmarinosin B (7), protocatechuic acid (8), and protocatechuic aldehyde (9). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated using spectroscopic methods, including one-dimensional and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance, high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The potential anti-inflammatory activities of all the isolated compounds were determined by evaluating their inhibitory effects on the nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.

A hitherto unknown class of C-symmetric C-C (C, C, C, C) axially chiral porphyrins has been synthesized and the application of their iridium (Ir) complexes in catalytic asymmetric C(sp)-H functionalization is documented. Cyclotetramerization of enantioenriched axially chiral 2-hydroxymethyl-3-naphthyl pyrroles under mild acidic conditions affords, after oxidation with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ), the C-symmetric α,α,α,α-atropenantiomer as an only isolable diastereomer. Both regioisomeric Ir(Por*)(CO)(Cl) complexes catalyze the carbene C-H insertion reaction affording the same enantiomer, albeit with slight difference in enantioselectivity.

A representative naturally occurring coumarin, 4-methylumbelliferone (), was exposed to 50 kGy of gamma ray, resulting in four newly generated dihydrocoumarin products - induced by the gamma irradiation. The structures of these new products were elucidated by interpretation of spectroscopic data (NMR, MS, [α], and UV). The unusual bisdihydrocoumarin exhibited improved tyrosinase inhibitory capacity toward mushroom tyrosinase with IC values of 19.
