Photoisomerization of a series of substituted E-cinnamic acids in MeCN in their acid forms and as their corresponding protic ionic liquids (PILs) with light of 300 nm is studied. The nature, strength, number, and position effects of substituents on the photochemical behavior of E-cinnamic derivatives are investigated. The photosensitization of the reaction in the presence of Michler's ketone is also studied at 366 nm and it demonstrates that the triplet-excited state is involved in the reaction. As the presence of n-butylamine needed to form the PILs significantly increases the photoproduct yields in all cases, the role of the PILs is also discussed. Thus, understanding of these fundamental aspects has allowed us to establish an excellent and practical synthetic protocol for successfully synthesizing Z-cinnamic acids. This journal is

Chinese quince fruits (Chaenomeles sinensis) have an abundance of lignins with antioxidant activities. To facilitate the utilization of Chinese quince fruits, lignin was isolated from it by auto-catalyzed ethanol organosolv pretreatment. The effects of three processing conditions (temperature, time, and ethanol concentration) on yield, structural features and antioxidant activities of the auto-catalyzed ethanol organosolv lignin samples were assessed individually. Results showed the pretreatment temperature was the most significant factor; it affected the molecular weight, S/G ratio, number of β-O-4′ linkages, thermal stability, and antioxidant activities of lignin samples. According to the GPC analyses, the molecular weight of lignin samples had a negative correlation with pretreatment temperature. 2D-HSQC NMR and Py-GC/MS results revealed that the S/G ratios of lignin samples increased with temperature, while total phenolic hydroxyl content of lignin samples decreased. The structural characterization clearly indicated that the various pretreatment conditions affected the structures of organosolv lignin, which further resulted in differences in the antioxidant activities of the lignin samples. These results can be helpful for controlling and optimizing delignification during auto-catalyzed ethanol organosolv pretreatment, and they provide theoretical support for the potential applications of Chinese quince fruits lignin as a natural antioxidant in the food industry.

Regioselective reactions represent a significant challenge for organic chemistry. Here the regioselective methylation of a single hydroxy group of 4-substituted catechols was investigated employing the cobalamin-dependent methyltransferase from Desulfitobacterium hafniense. Catechols substituted in position four were methylated either in meta- or para-position to the substituent depending whether the substituent was polar or apolar. While the biocatalytic cobalamin dependent methylation was meta-selective with 4-substituted catechols bearing hydrophilic groups, it was para-selective for hydrophobic substituents. Furthermore, the presence of water miscible co-solvents had a clear improving influence, whereby THF turned out to enable the formation of a single regioisomer in selected cases. Finally, it was found that also the pH led to an enhancement of regioselectivity for the cases investigated.

An isoeugenol 4-O-methyltransferase (IeOMT), isolated from the plant Clarkia breweri, can be engineered to a caffeic acid 3-O-methyltransferase (CaOMT) by replacing three consecutive residues. Here we further investigated functions of these residues by constructing the triple mutant T133M/A134N/T135Q as well as single mutants of each residue. Phenolics with different chain lengths and different functional groups were investigated. The variant T133M improves the enzymatic activities against all tested substrates by providing beneficial interactions to residues which directly interact with the substrate. Mutant A134N significantly enhanced the regioselectivity. It is meta-selective or even specific against most of the tested substrates but para-specific towards 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid. The triple mutant T133M/A134N/T135Q benefits from these two mutations, which not only expand the substrate scope but also enhance the regioselectivity of IeOMT. On the basis of our work, regiospecific methylated phenolics can be produced in high purity by different IeOMT variants.

Various substituted neoflavonoid derivatives were synthesized using sulfated montmorillonite K-10 as a catalyst. This method is environmental friendly, sustainable and economical, convenient in isolation and purification processes, with little byproducts, using earth-abundant catalysts and has relatively high yield. Those neoflavonoid derivatives were screened for antioxidant, a-glucosidase inhibitory, aldose reductase 2 (ALR2) inhibitory and advanced glycation end-product formation inhibitory effects. Most compounds exhibited significant antioxidant and advanced glycation end-product (AGE) formation inhibitory activities. It was interesting to note that out of thirty compounds, 8k and 8l were found to have greater ALR2 inhibitory activity than the standard drug quercetin. The pharmacological studies suggested neoflavonoid with adjacent 7,8-dihydroxy groups were more effective in inhibiting ALR2. Antidiabetic activity studies had shown that compounds 8l and 8m were equipotent to the standard drug glibenclamide in vivo. In summary, the target compound 8l provided a potential drug design concept for the development of therapeutic or prophylactic agents of diabetes and diabetes complications.
