Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic methods have been used to characterize the chemical composition of floral nectar of Anigozanthos species with a minimum of sample preparation and without derivatization. The nectar of this passerine-pollinated plant is largely dominated by glucose and fructose, while sucrose occurs only at a minor level. Tyrosine, several additional amino acids, and a variety of carboxylic acids were identified and their concentrations estimated. A linear diarylheptanoid was detected as a trace component, marking the first time this type of secondary product in Hemodoraceae has been found.

One of the most oft-employed methods for C-C bond formation involving the coupling of vinyl-halides with aldehydes catalyzed by Ni and Cr (Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi, NHK) has been rendered more practical using an electroreductive manifold. Although early studies pointed to the feasibility of such a process, those precedents were never applied by others due to cumbersome setups and limited scope. Here we show that a carefully optimized electroreductive procedure can enable a more sustainable approach to NHK, even in an asymmetric fashion on highly complex medicinally relevant systems. The e-NHK can even enable non-canonical substrate classes, such as redox-active esters, to participate with low loadings of Cr when conventional chemical techniques fail. A combination of detailed kinetics, cyclic voltammetry, and in situ UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry of these processes illuminates the subtle features of this mechanistically intricate process.

Four linear nonphenolic diarylheptanoids were synthesized and their antibacterial activities were studied. (S)-2-Me-CBS-catalysed reduction of alnustone with BH3.SMe2gave (R) (-)(4E,6E)-1,7-diphenylhepta-4,6-dien-3-ol, a natural product. Reduction of alnustone with Na in t-BuOH at-15 °C under NH3atm gave (E)-1,7-diphenylhept-5-en-3-one as a Birch-type reduction product. t-BuOK catalysed condensation of benzalacetone with propionyl chloride gave (4Z ,6E)-5-hydroxy-1,7-diphenylhepta-4,6-dien-3-one, a natural product. (1E,4Z ,6E)-5-Hydroxy-4-phenethyl-1,7-diphenylhepta-1,4,6-trien-3-one, a curcuminoid, was synthesized starting from pentan-2,4-dione in 3 steps. The synthesized chemical compounds were applied against 2 gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus cereus and Arthrobacter agilis), 4 gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Xanthomonas campestris, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Helicobacter pylori), and 1 yeast (Candida albicans) by the disc diffusion method. All of the synthesized compound exhibited different degrees of antimicrobial activity at concentrations between 20-100 μg/disc against the test organisms.
