A new oxysporidinone analogue (1) and a new 3-hydroxyl-2-piperidinone derivative (2),
along with the known compounds (−)-4, 6′-anhydrooxysporidinone (3),(+)-fusarinolic acid …

We report a one-step phosphine-catalyzed annulation between aldehydes and ethyl
allenoate to form 6-substituted 2-pyrones. The mechanistic rationale for this reaction …

Three new α-pyrones, nocapyrones E–G (1–3), and three new diketopiperazine derivatives,
nocazines A–C (4–6), together with a new oxazoline compound, nocazoline A (7), were …

The reaction of diorganyl disulfides or diselenides with PhICl2 in acetonitrile was found for
the first time to lead to the in situ formation of organosulfenyl chloride or selenenyl chloride …

Marine organisms represent almost half of total biodiversity and are a very important source
of new bioactive substances. Within the varied biological activities found in marine products …

Some plant‐derived bioactive compounds produced by fungal endophytes have been
proven to have antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. In this study, endophytic fungi were …

Covering: 2009 to 2021 Biosynthetically, most of the syntheses of triterpenes follow the
cascade cyclization and rearrangement of the acyclic precursors viz., squalene (S) and 2, 3 …

The α-pyrone moiety is a structural feature found in a huge variety of biologically active
metabolites. In recent times new insights into additional biosynthetic mechanisms, yielding …

Reaction of 5-substituted (Z)-2-en-4-ynoic acids with iodine and NaHCO3 in CH3CN or with
ICl in CH2Cl2 affords mixtures of (E)-5-(1-iodoylidene)-2 (5H)-furanones and 6-substituted 5 …

In this review, we discuss structural diversity, taxonomic distribution, biological activities,
biogenesis, and synthesis of a rare group of terpenoids, the so-called malabaricane and …
