A number of derivatives of 7-hydroxycoumarins containing aromatic or monoterpene substituents at hydroxy-group were synthesized based on a hit compound from a virtual screen. The ability of these compounds to inhibit tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase I (Tdp 1), important target for anti-cancer therapy, was studied for the first time. It was found that the 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives with monoterpene pinene moiety are effective inhibitors of Tdp 1 with the most active derivative (+)-25c with IC50value of 0.675?μM. This compound has low cytotoxicity (CC50?>100?μM) when tested against human cancer cells which is crucial for presupposed application in combination with clinically established anticancer drugs. The ability of the new compounds to enhance the cytotoxicity of camptothecin, an established topoisomerase 1 poison, was demonstrated.

The surface activity of ten atmospherically relevant α-pinene-derived dimers having varying terminal functional groups and backbone stereochemistry is reported. We find ～10% differences in surface activity between diastereomers of the same dimer, demonstrating that surface activity depends upon backbone stereochemistry. Octanol-water (KOW) and octanol-ammonium sulfate partitioning coefficient (KOAS) measurements of our standards align well with the surface activity measurements, with the more surface-active dimers exhibiting increased hydrophobicity. Our findings establish a link between molecular chirality and cloud activation potential of secondary organic aerosol particles. Given the diurnal variations in enantiomeric excess of biogenic emissions, possible contributions of such a link to biosphere:atmosphere feedbacks as well as aerosol particle viscosity and phase separation are discussed.

We present herein for the first time the use of the [Cu(Xantphos)(neoc)]BF4 as a photocatalyst for the selective C-H allylic oxygenation of cycloalkenes into the corresponding allylic hydroperoxides or alcohols in the presence of molecular oxygen. The proposed methodology affords the products at good yields and has also been applied successfully to several bioactive terpenoids, such as geraniol, linalool, β-citronellol, and phytol. A mechanistic study involving also kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) supports the proposed singlet oxygen-mediated reaction. On the basis of the high chemoselectivity and yields and the fast and clean reaction processes observed, the present catalytic system, [Cu(Xantphos)(neoc)]BF4, has also been applied to the synthesis, at a laboratory scale, of the cis-Rose oxide, a well-known perfumery ingredient used in rose and geranium perfumes.
