Six new sesquiterpenoid quinones with an amino acid residue, metachromins L-Q (1-6), have been isolated from an Okinawan marine sponge Spongia sp. The structures and stereochemistry of 1-6 were elucidated on the basis of the spectroscopic data and chemical correlations. Metachromins L (1) and M (2) showed modest cytotoxicity.     

A new 3-alkylpyridine alkaloid from the marine sponge Haliclona sp. and its cytotoxic activity

A new alkaloid, 3-dodecyl pyridine containing a terminal cyano group (1), was isolated from the methanol extract of an Indonesia marine sponge Haliclona sp. Its chemical structure was determined by a combination of spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR. Bioassay results indicated that compound 1 had moderate cytotoxity against tumour cell lines A549, MCF-7 and Hela with IC₅₀ values of 41.8, 48.4 and 33.2 μM, respectively.     

Quantification of polyphenols and flavonoid content and evaluation of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities of Stenocereus stellatus extracts

The hexanic, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts from branches of Stenocereus stellatus were tested in both the 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) – induced ear oedema model and antimicrobial activity assay. The % of oedema inhibition, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), as well as the polyphenolic and flavonoid content were determined. Also, extracts were analysed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). In TPA model, the three extracts showed moderate oedema inhibition. In the antimicrobial activity assay, methanolic extract shows better MIC against all strains. The lowest MICs were for Candida albicans (31 μg/mL) and Rhizopus sp. (15 μg/mL). Also, 50.78 mg eq. of gallic acid/g extract of polyphenol and 115.12 mg eq. of catequine/g extract of flavonoids content were founded in ethyl acetate extract. In the chromatographic analysis, β-sitosterol, β-amyrine, betulin and some other molecules were identified. The results show that S. stellatus possess antimicrobial activities against some fungus species.     

Chemical constituents of the mangrove-associated fungus Capnodium sp. SZ-F22. A new eremophilane sesquiterpene

A new eremophilane sesquiterpene, capnodiumone (1), along with five known eremophilane sesquiterpenes (2–6) and eight other compounds (7–14), have been isolated from a mangrove-associated fungus Capnodium sp. SZ-F22. The chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis. The broth extract of the fungus exhibited a good inhibitory effect on the mycelium growth against Fusarium graminearum at 100 μg/mL, however, all the 14 compounds showed no expected antifungal activity. The probable reasons were discussed.     

Penimethavone A,a flavone from a gorgonian-derived fungus Penicillium chrysogenum

A novel flavone, penimethavone A (1), possessing a rare unique methyl group at ring-B, was isolated from the fungus Penicillium chrysogenum cultured from a gorgonian Carijoa sp. collected from the South China Sea. The structure was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and by comparison with related known compound. Compound 1 showed selective and moderate cytotoxicity against cervical cancer (HeLa) and rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines with IC₅₀ values of 8.41 and 8.18 μM, respectively.     

微拟球藻脂肪热解及对全组分制备生物油的影响

以酸水解法从微拟球藻中提取的粗脂肪为原料,在管式裂解炉中考察不同热解温度下脂肪单组分的热解规律及对微拟球藻全组分各相产率及生物油性能的影响。利用热重分析仪分别考察粗脂肪及全组分的热失重特性,并求出相应的动力学参数。结果表明,脂肪热解能够提高全组分热解有机相产率并改善油品性能。随着温度的升高,粗脂肪与全组分热解后的有机相产率及油品性能的变化趋势相同,且生物油性能均在600℃时达到最佳。经热解,粗脂肪中含氧化合物含量降低,脂肪烃含量显著增加。对比全组分热解,粗脂肪热解后的油品脱氧率及氢、碳元素比例更高,因而增加全组分中脂肪的含量能够促进油品性能的进一步提高。对粗脂肪及全组分的热重数据进行计算,发现两者均满足二级化学反应机理,粗脂肪、全组分的活化能与指前因子分别为64.34 k J/mol与2.94×105min-1,48.13 k J/mol与2.96×103min-1。
