Abstract
One new eudesmane sesquiterpene 1 and one new chromolaevane sesquiterpene 2, along with 19 known compounds, have been isolated from the invasive plant Solidago canadensis. Their structures were established by spectroscopic means, including 1D/2D-NMR and HR-ESIMS analyses. Compounds 10 and 12, in combination with fluconazole, showed significant activity in an in vitro synergistic antifungal assay against Candida albicans, with FIC values of <0.15625 and <0.28125, respectively. Meanwhile, the allelopathic effects of these sesquiterpenes on Arabidopsis seed germination were also tested. Compounds 5, 7, 17 and 18 retarded the seed germination of Arabidopsis with IC50 values ranging from 9.1 to 41 μg/mL, while other compounds showed no obvious inhibitory effects.
Keywords: Solidago canadensis, sesquiterpene, antifungal activity, allelopathic activity, NMR data, HMBC.

Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
