A cerebroside fraction was obtained from the bruit bodies of fomitopsis pinicola using column chromatography and then separated into six compounds by reversed-phase HPLC.The sugar component of all cerebrosides was D-glucose.The major fatty acids were 2-hydroxyfatty acids (C14-C18), the long chain base was identified as 9-methyl-C18-4,8-sphingadienine which is widely distributed in fungi and reported to be essential for the fruit-inducing activity of fungi.Based on degradation studies, fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, and different 1H and 13C NMR investigations, the structure of the main cerebroside (1) was determined to be (4E,8E,2S,3R,2'R)-N-2'-hydroxypalmityl-1-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-9-methyl-4,8-sphingadienine. - Keywords: Cerebroside; Glycolipid; Fomitopsis pinicola; 1H and 13C NMR

A new sterol, (23R)-methoxycholest-5,24-dien-3β-ol (1), two new ceramides, (2S,3R,4E,8E)- 2-(tetradecanoylamino)-4,8-octadecadien-l,3-diol (6) and (2S,3R,2′R,4E,8E)-2-(tetradecanoylamino)- 4,8-octadecadien-l,3,2′-triol (7), together with three known sterols (2-4), a lactone (5) and two ceramides (8,9), were isolated from the marine bryozoan Cryptosula pallasiana, collected at Huang Island of China. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, chemical methods and quantum electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Among the isolated compounds, sterol 1 possessed a rare side chain with a methoxy group at C-23, and a double bond between C-24 and C-25. Ceramides 6 and 7 possessed 14 carbons in their long-chain fatty acid base (FAB), which were different from the normal ceramides with 16 carbons in the FAB. Moreover, compounds 5 and 8 were isolated for the first time from marine bryozoans. Compounds 1-9 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines HL-60, Hep-G2 and SGC-7901. The results showed that lactone 5 appears to have strong cytotoxicity against the test tumor cell lines, with IC50 values from 4.12 μM to 7.32 μM, and sterol 1 displayed moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values between 12.34 μM and 18.37 μM, while ceramides 6-9 showed weak cytotoxicity with IC50 ranging from 21.13 μM to 58.15 μM.

A series of amphiphilic ligands were designed and synthesized. The rhodium complexes with the ligands were applied to the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of broad range of long-chained aliphatic ketoesters in neat water. Quantitative conversion and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) was observed for α-, β-, γ-, δ- and ε-ketoesters as well as for α- and β-acyloxyketone using chiral surfactant-type catalyst 2. The CH/π interaction and the strong hydrophobic interaction of long aliphatic chains between the catalyst and the substrate in the metallomicelle core played a key role in the catalytic transition state. Synergistic effects between the metal-catalyzed site and the hydrophobic microenvironment of the core in the micelle contributed to high stereoselectivity. (Chemical Equation Presented).
