Five pairs of undescribed enantiomeric α-pyrone derivatives (±)-adprepyrones A-E (±1-±5), together with an unreported congener adprepyrone F (6), and 6-[(E)-3-Hydroxyprop-1-enyl]-4-methoxy-5-methyl-2-pyrone (7), recently reported as synthetic compound, were isolated from the fungus Talaromyces adpressus. Their structures with absolute configurations were elucidated by HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, electronic circular dichroism calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. (±)-Adprepyrone A (±1) possesses an unreported carbon skeleton formed by the fusion of an α-pyrone derivative with nicotinamide. Compounds (+)-2, (±)-4, (±)-5, and 7 showed moderate inhibitory activity against concanavalin A (ConA)-induced T lymphocyte proliferation with IC values ranging from 8.9 to 19.8 μM.

Developing a new type of circularly polarized luminescent active small organic molecule that combines high fluorescence quantum yield and luminescence dissymmetric factor in both solution and solid state is highly challenging but promising. In this context, we designed and synthesized a unique triarylborane-based [2.2]paracyclophane derivative, , in which an electron-accepting [(2-dimesitylboryl)phenyl]ethynyl group and an electron-donating -diphenylamino group are introduced into two different benzene rings of [2.

Members of the genus are well known for their medicinal properties, which can be attributed to their essential oils. In this work, we have examined the leaf essential oils of five understudied species collected from various locations in western North America. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatographic methods, including enantioselective gas chromatography.

Orthopalladated derivatives from substituted phenylglycines [Pd(μ-Cl)(CHRC(R)(R)N(R)] () react with halogenating reagents (PhICl, Br, I) () to give the corresponding o-halogenated amino acids CH(X)RC(R)(R)N(R) (). The reaction is general and tolerates a variety of functional groups (R to R) at the aryl ring, the Cα, and the N atom. On the other hand, the reaction of [Pd(μ-Cl)(CHRC(R)(R)N(R)] () with PhI(OAc) in the presence of a variety of alcohols ROH () gives the o-alkoxylated phenylglycines CH(OR)RC(R)(R)N(R) (), also as a general process.

Tea tree oil (TTO), acquired from (Maiden & Betche) Cheel, Myrtaceae, is a widely utilized essential oil (EO) due to its bioactive properties. The identification and quantification of TTO ingredients is generally performed by GC-MS, which provides the most accurate results. However, in some instances, the cost and time of analysis may pose a challenge.
