- Identification and characterization of the Indian Yellow dyestuff and its degradation products in historical oil paint tube by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry
-
An analytical protocol for identification of dyes using reversed phase liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with atmospheric pressure electrospray ionization (LC-ESI/MS) is presented. The developed method has been successfully applied in identification of euxanthic acid and euxanthone, the main components of the Indian Yellow dye in a historical oil paint tube produced by Richard Ainès, a recognizable French company supplying art materials. The paint tube from which the sample has been taken belonged to a famous Polish painter from the 19th century-Jan Matejko. Various methods of extraction of the Indian Yellow dyestuff from the oil paint were systematically investigated. Efficiencies of the nine extraction procedures (based respectively on use of: HCl, HF, acetylacetone, and formic, tartaric, oxalic, trifluoroacetic and citric acids) were compared on the basis of euxanthic acid to euxanthone chromatographic peak areas ratio. It was found that use of HF, acetylacetone and the organic acids ensures a non-destructive recovery of intact acid-labile components, while the strong HCl mineral acid not only allowed extraction of the colorant from the binding medium, but also decomposes the glycosidic dye into the parent aglycon and causes a formation of methyl euxanthonate and numerous products which may hinder the proper identification of the dye. The Indian Yellow was fully characterized with the use of spectrochromatographic techniques for the first time. The fragmentation pathways of the identified colorant ions and their degradation products were proposed.

- The Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of 1,5,7-Trisubstituted-3-Pyridyl-Xanthones for Use as Insecticides Starting from Pyripyropene A
-
A readily accessible template of 1,5,7-trisubstituted-3-pyridyl-xanthones was designed starting from naturally occurring pyripyropene A for agrichemical development. Our originally developed Ag2CO3-mediated oxidative cyclization enabled ready access to the key scaffold, 1,5,7-trihydroxy-3-chloro-xanthone. The chemo- and regioselective sequential introduction of four substituents to the scaffold rapidly afforded the desired, structurally diverse 1,5,7-trisubstituted-3-pyridyl-xanthones. An evaluation of insecticidal activity revealed that one of the synthesized compounds retained insecticidal activity against vetch aphid and green peach aphid. The observed insecticidal spectrum was similar to that of pyripyropene A. The developed template could be a valuable aid for future agrichemical development.

- A green and regioselsctive synthesis of xanthone and thioxanthone derivatives in the presence of heteropoly acid under microwave irradiation
-
One-pot preparation of a variety of pharmacologically pertinent xanthone heterocycles has efficiently been achieved from their respective phenol compounds and salicylic acid/thiosalicylic acid in the presence of the catalytic amount of heteropoly acid. Most of the reactions showed high regioselectivity and produced xanthones/thioxanthones in good yields under microwave irradiation.
