A novel and highly efficient method for activating highly hindered acid anhydrides towards the acylation of alcohols and carbohydrate-derived polyols has been developed. This new method relies on the capacity of the hafnium triflate catalyst Hf(OTf)2 to activate highly hindered acid anhydrides, and to direct the acylation reaction. This new acylation protocol is mild and proceed at room temperature with low catalyst loading. The method is versatile and has been extended to different alcohol substrates with different steric encumbrance as well as carbohydrate-derived polyols to afford the corresponding ester products in good to excellent yields.
Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of thymol and carvacrol derivatives

experimental part, p. 375 - 380 (2011/08/06)
Fourteen esters of thymol and carvacrol were synthesized and characterized on the basis of spectral data. The NMR data for some of these are being given for the first time. The antibacterial activity screening of thymol, carvacrol and their esters were carried out against four Gram-positive (Streptococcus mutans MTCC 890, Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96, Bacillus subtilis MTCC 121, Staphylococcus epidermidis MTCC 435) and one Gram-negative (Escherichia coli MTCC 723) bacteria. The enhancement in activity was noticed in the thymyl ester derivatives 4a-c (against S. mutans, B. subtilis and S. epidermidis) in comparison to thymol, whereas the carvacrol derivatives were found to be much less active than carvacrol.

Thymyl isobutyrate, thymol, thymyl isovalerate, 8α-hydroxy presilphiperfolene and intermedeol have been isolated from steam volatile extract of Inula cuspidata and identified from their spectral data, synthesis and chemical modification of major constituents. Sharp qualitative and quantitative variations among the constituents of leaf, flower and roots of Inula cuspidata are noticed.
