Several oximes of triterpenes with a 17-β hydroxyl and abietane derivatives are inhibitors of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) activity. The oxime 12 and dehydroabietyl amine 2 exhibit a blood glucose lowering effect in the diabetic ob/ob mouse after a single oral dose of 100 μmol/kg. However, the mechanism of the blood glucose lowering effect is likely unrelated to PDK inhibition.

In this paper, a series of novel abietyl and dehydroabietyl ureas, thioureas, amides, and thioamides bearing adamantane moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in-hibitory activities against tyrosil-DNA-phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1). The synthesized compounds were able to inhibit TDP1 at micromolar concentrations (0.19–2.3 μM) and demonstrated low cytotox-icity in the T98G glioma cell line. The effect of the terpene fragment, the linker structure, and the adamantane residue on the biological properties of the new compounds was investigated. Based on molecular docking results, we suppose that adamantane derivatives of resin acids bind to the TDP1 covalent intermediate, forming a hydrogen bond with Ser463 and hydrophobic contacts with the Phe259 and Trp590 residues and the oligonucleotide fragment of the substrate.

Enantioselective direct aldol reactions were carried out in aqueous media with a new organocatalyst that was derived from 4-hydroxy-l-proline and abietic acid via a simple and convenient synthetic protocol with a high overall yield (75%). The new organocatalyst was used for aldol reactions between substituted aromatic aldehydes and various ketones in the presence of several acid additives in aqueous media. The corresponding aldol products were obtained in high isolated yields (up to 99%) and with high anti-diastereoselectivities (up to 94%) and enantioselectivities (>99.9%). The catalyst loading can be efficiently reduced to only 1 mol %. The aldol reactions were found to be extremely fast which is very unusual in organocatalyzed reactions in water.

The reaction of abietic acid chloride with sodium salts of 1H,1H-dihydrotrifluoroethanol, 1H,1H,3H-trihydrotetrafluoropropanol, 1H,1H,5H-trihydrooctafluoropentanol, and pentafluorophenol was studied. The main reaction products are the corresponding fluorinated alkyl (aryl) abietates.
Diterpenoid carboxylic acid anhydrides of the abietane, pimarane, and isopimarane series

Methods were developed for preparation of diterpenoid carboxylic acid anhydrides of the abietane, pimarane, and isopimarane series, the corresponding mixed anhydrides, and mixed anhydrides derived from resin acids and organic or inorganic acids. The resulting anhydrides sharply differ from the parent acids in physical properties; their thermal reactions and isomerizations and the rates of formation and hydrolysis were studied. The data obtained were used to develop new procedures for separation of anhydride mixtures into pure components. Reactions of abietic anhydride with some nucleophilic reagents gave the corresponding esters, ketones, amides, etc. Commercial samples of pine wood resins (gum rosin and tallic rosin) were shown to contain a small amount (0.2%) of diterpenoid anhydride mixtures.
Phytoalexin-like Activity of Abietic Acid and Its Derivatives

Abietic acid and some of its derivatives, not known to be naturally occurring phytoalexins, were examined for their ability to promote H+ conductance across membranes and to inhibit growth of two fungal species-Aphanomyces euteiches and Fusarium moniliforme.These results were compared with those of phaseollin, at phytoalexin isolated from kidney beans.Ion leakage and fungal growth inhibition were shown to be a function of structure, results that suggest that pterocarpan phytoalexin activity requires the presence of a polar, protic functional group situated at the end of a large, rigid hydrophobic moiety.Log P values for phaseollin, abietic acid, and some derivatives of abietic acid were also determined. Keywords: Abietic acid; H+ leakage; antifungal activity; log P; phaseollin
THE INVENTION OF NEW RADICAL CHAIN REACTIONS. PART VIII. RADICAL CHEMISTRY OF THIOHYDROXAMIC ESTERS; A NEW METHOD FOR THE GENERATION OF CARBON RADICALS FROM CARBOXYLIC ACIDS.

The aliphatic and alicyclic esters of N-hydroxy-pyridine-2-thione are readily reduced by tributylstannane in a radical chain reaction to furnish nor-alkanes.In the absence of the stannane a smooth decarboxylative rearrangement occurs to give 2-substituted thiopyridines.The radicals present in this reaction provoke with t-butylthiol an efficient radical reaction with formation of nor-alkane and 2-pyridyl-t-butyl disulphide.Similarly these carbon radicals can be captured by halogen atom transfer to give noralkyl chlorides, bromides and iodides.With oxygen in the presence of t-butylthiol the corresponding noralkyl hydroperoxides are formed in another radical chain reaction.
