Eight undescribed terpenoids, namely, odongrossins A-H, together with two known terpenoids were isolated from Odontoschisma grosseverrucosum Stephani (Cephaloziaceae). Their structures were established based on NMR data, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. Odongrossin A and odongrossin G displayed moderate anti-virulence activities against CDR1-and CDR2-efflux-pump-deficient Candida albicans DSY654. Further investigation of odongrossin A revealed that it inhibited adhesion and biofilm formation on C. albicans DSY654. The results regarding the transcription levels of genes demonstrated that odongrossin A could regulate the expression of genes that are associated with the virulence of C. albicans DSY654.

Sacculatane Diterpenoids from the Liverwort Collected in China.

Seven new terpenoids, including six sacculatane diterpenoids plagiochilarins A-F (-), and one -2,3--aromandrane sesquiterpenoid plagiochilarin H () with a 6/7/3/5 tetracyclic scaffold, alongside three known compounds, were obtained from the Chinese liverwort Inoue. Plagiochilarin B () was unpredictably converted to the more stable artifact under acid catalysis through cyclic ether formation. The reaction mechanism was reasonably deduced and experimentally verified.

In this study, 14 previously undescribed terpenoids were isolated from the Chinese liverwort Heteroscyphus coalitus (Hook.) Schiffner, including a rare harziane type diterpenoid, heteroscyphsic acid A; eight ent-clerodane diterpenoids, heteroscyphsic acids B-I; four labdane diterpenoids, heteroscyphins A-D; and one guaiane sesquiterpene, heteroscyphin E; as well as a known ent-junceic acid. Their structures were determined by a combination of MS, NMR spectroscopy, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.

We report on the spontaneous, reversible intramolecular transesterification of natural labdane lactones. Through extensive spectroscopic analysis, the interconversion between the two tautomers was investigated, which could be retarded when the free hydroxy group was acetylated or the exocyclic double bond of the lactone ring was mutated. Besides, a conversion mechanism was postulated, and the energy barriers were calculated by density functional theory calculations.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating new derivatives of natural products for drug discovery, specifically targeting antifungal compounds.
- Through a one-pot reaction involving flavones and isoflavones, researchers synthesized novel 3,4-diaryl-1H-pyrazoles and 3,5-diaryl-1H-pyrazoles.
- Some of these compounds showed significant antifungal effects against Candida albicans, particularly against strains that are resistant to traditional treatment, suggesting their potential in developing new antifungal therapies.
