Various practical methods for the selective C?H functionalization of the ortho and recently also of the meta position of an arene have already been developed. Following our recent development of the directing-group-assisted para C?H functionalization of toluene derivatives, we herein report the first remote para C?H functionalization of phenol derivatives by using a recyclable silicon-containing biphenyl-based template. The effectiveness of this strategy was illustrated with different synthetic elaborations and by the synthesis of various phenol-based natural products.

The effects of Brazilian green propolis ethanol extract on Cry j1-induced cys-leukotrienes and histamine release from peripheral leukocytes of patients with allergic rhinitis were investigated. One of the key mechanisms for the anti-allergic properties of the extract was revealed to be the suppression of cys-LTs release. Furthermore, a series of propolis components and their phenethyl esters were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of cys-LTs release. Artepillin C, baccharin, and kaempferide were the major active components of the ethanol extract. The inhibitory activity of artepillin C phenethyl ester was comparable to that of existing LT synthesis inhibitors. Crown Copyright

We designed and synthesized isoprene analogues of artepillin C, a major component of Brazilian propolis, and investigated the inhibitory activity on lipid peroxidation of rat liver mitochondria (RLM) and RLM toxicity based on isoprenomics. We succeeded in

A systematic structure-activity relationship study of plicatin B (1), an antimutagenic constituent of Psoralea juncea, was undertaken with a view toward elucidating its chemical mode of action and possibly optimizing its antimutagenic activity during the process. Compound 1 and its related analogues were examined for their antimutagenic activity against mutations induced by ethyl methanesulfonate, a direct acting mutagen and alkylating agent, in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, utilizing the modified Ames test protocol. The dihydro analogue 3 resulting from saturation of the conjugated alkene double bond of 1 was found to exhibit reduced cytotoxicity and enhanced efficacy relative to the parent compound. This result serves preliminarily to exclude a Michael acceptor role of the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety in connection with its antimutagenic activity.

Three distinct antimicrobal compounds were isolated from Brazilian propolis.These compounds were identified as 3,5-diprenyl-4-hydroxycinnamic acid(1), 3-prenyl-4-dihydrocinnamoloxycinnamic acid (2), and 2,2-dimethyl-6-carboxyethenyl-2H-1-benzopyran (3).The respective antimicrobal activity, expressed as MIC in μg/ml, 1-3 against Bacillus cereus was 15.6, 31.3, and 125; that against Enterobacter aerogenes was 31.3, 62.5, and 125; and that against Arthroderma benhamiae was 15.6, 250, and 62.5.Compound 1 is likely to be one of the major antimicrobal compounds in Brazilian propolis.
