The chemical investigation of a red alga enabled the identification of three new halogenated monoterpenes (-) along with two previously identified metabolites ( and ). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and also by utilizing single-crystal diffraction analysis and quantum chemical calculation, as well as by comparison with literature data. Further corrections for dichloro and dibromo carbons using the sorted training set (STS) method were established in this study to significantly improve the accuracy in GIAO C NMR calculation of compounds -. To discover the potential bioactive metabolites from , the anti-inflammatory activities of all compounds were examined. Compounds and - showed significant anti-inflammatory activity to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the LPS-stimulated mature dendritic cells.

The application of pesticides increases crop yields but affects the structure and function of the soil microbial community. Halogens are common functional modification groups in chemical compounds, and innovative pesticides have been developed on the basis of these groups. However, the effects of different halogen substituents on soil microorganisms remain unclear.

The development of nontoxic antifouling coatings in static marine environments is urgent. Herein, the successful synthesis of sulfobetaine borneol fluorinated polymers (PEASBF) by a free radical polymerization method is reported. The PEASBF coatings exhibit outstanding antifouling activity, which effectively resists the adhesion of (FITC-BSA adhesion rate: 0.

Introduction: Chlorfenapyr, a N-substituted halogenated pyrrole, is a broad-spectrum insecticide. The insecticidal activity of chlorfenapyr depends on its biotransformation by hepatic cytochrome P450 monooxygenases to tralopyril, which uncouples mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and disrupts adenosine triphosphate production. Neither the metabolism of chlorfenapyr nor the mechanism of tralopyril is completely elucidated.
