The energies and geometries of the lowest lying singlet and triplet states of the four diradicals formed by removing two H atoms from thiophene have been characterized. We utilized the highly correlated, multireference methods configuration interaction with single and double excitations with and without the Pople correction for size-extensivity (MR-CISD+Q and MR-CISD) and averaged quadratic coupled cluster theory (MR-AQCC). CAS (8,7) and CAS (10,8) active spaces involving σ, σ*, π, and π* orbitals were employed along with the cc-pVDZ and cc-pVTZ basis sets.

Uncommon diterpenoids with diverse frameworks, including one unexpected iodinated oxa-6/6/6/6-tetracyclic diterpene () and its monobrominated 6/6/6-tricyclic analogue () and one novel isodolastane-type diterpene featuring an unusual aromatic 5/7/6-tricyclic ring system () as well as a related known dolastane-type diterpenoid (), were isolated from the South China Sea sponge . Their structures, including absolute configurations, were established by extensive spectroscopic data analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, and quantum mechanical-nuclear magnetic resonance and time-dependent density functional theory/electronic circular dichroism calculations. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of new compounds - was proposed.

New technology has opened opportunities for research and exploration of deep-water ecosystems, highlighting deep-sea coral reefs as a rich source of novel bioactive natural products. During our ongoing investigation of the chemodiversity of the Irish deep sea and the soft coral we report 12 unreported cadinene-like functionalized sesquiterpenes, anthoteibinenes F-Q. The metabolites were isolated using both bioassay- and H NMR-guided approaches.

Matteson homologation, a successive extension of chiral boronic esters, is perfectly suited for the synthesis of complex molecular structures containing several stereogenic centers. The "classical version" allows the introduction of various functional groups in a 1,2--configuration. The absolute configuration is determined by the choice of the chiral auxiliary, which can be used to introduce several stereogenic centers.

One new gliotoxin derivative fumianthrogliotoxin (), one new indoquizoline alkaloid 3-(methyl propionate) indoquizoline (), and three novel indole alkaloids, anthroxyindole (), (±)-asperfumiindole A (), and (±)-asperfumiindole B (), together with 16 known compounds (-), were isolated from the culture of deep-sea derived fungus AF1. Their chemical structures and absolute configurations were determined through the analysis of NMR data in combination with electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations and other spectroscopic analyses. Compounds - and - were evaluated for anti-pulmonary fibrosis activity.
