Salvia bucharica belonging to the family Lamiaceae (Labiatae), afforded a novel terpenoid (1) named as salvatrione. The structure of 1 was elucidated through extensive 2-D NMR experiments and the biogenetic pathway of 1 has also been proposed. On biogenetic grounds, 1 may be considered to be a pseudo-triterpenoid as it is derived from the coupling of mono/ diterpenic units and not from squalene.

Novel bis- and tris-crown ethers were synthesized from 1-aza and diaza-crown ethers with 2-acryloyloxy-methyl crown ethers through Michael addition. The synthesized bis- and tris-crown ethers were characterized by their elemental analyses, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, mass spectra, IR spectra, respectively. The complexation behavior of the bis- and tris-crown ethers with $Li^+$, $Na^+$, $Na^+$, $Rb^+$, $Cs^+$ was examined by $^1H$-NMR, FAB mass, and UV spectrometry.

Bioassay-directed fractionation of the dried roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza led to the isolation of abietane tanshinones, cryptotanshinone and dibydrotanshinone I. Their structures were elucidated using $^1H-\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$, UV, IR and mass spectral analyses. These compounds exhibited a moderate antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus epidemidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus pyogene.

The detailed $^1$H and $^{13}$ C NMR assignments of a novel sucrose isovaleryl ester isolated from the seed of Euphorbia Lathyris L., were achieved by one-and two-dimensional techniques. The new sucrose ester was characterized as an $\alpha$-D-glucopyranoside, 3,4,6-tris-O-(3-methyl-1-oxobutyl)-$\beta$-D-fructofuranosyl, 2,6-bis(3-methylbutanoate); sucrose 4,7,8,11,12-pentaisovalerate by MS and NMR experiments.

In this study the cycloaddition of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and $CO_2$ using ionic liquid as catalyst was performed for the technology of $CO_2$ reduction. The structure of synthesized cyclic carbonate, [2-oxo-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]methacrylate (DOMA) was analyzed and confirmed by FT-IR and $^1H$-NMR. The change in conversion with respect to reaction time was investigated using $^1H$-NMR. Interestingly, the ionic polymerization of vinyl groups and crosslinking reaction between cyclic carbonate rings of DOMA were observed following completion of cycloaddition.

In the present study, a series of novel N-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methyl-5-[(hetero)aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]methanamine (4a-4j) were efficiently synthesized. Condensation of hydrazide derivative 3 with various carboxylic acid derivatives yielded N-[(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methy](5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methanamine (4a-4j) and compound 5-{[(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methylamino]methyl}-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (4k) was obtained on treating hydrazide 3 with carbon disulfide. All the newly synthesized analogues were characterized by IR, $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR and mass spectral data.

Metabolomic studies using human urine have shown that human metabolism is altered by a variety of environmental, cultural, and physiological factors. Comprehensive information about normal human metabolite profiles is necessary for accurate clinical diagnosis of disease and for disease prevention and treatment. In this study, metabolite correlation analyses, using $^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy coupled with multivariate statistics, were performed on human urine to compare metabolic differences based on gender and/or obesity in healthy human subjects. First, we applied partial least squares discriminant analysis to the NMR spectral data set to verify the data's ability to discriminate by gender and obesity. Then, the differences in metabolite-metabolite correlation between male and female, and between normal and high body mass index (obese) subjects were investigated through pairwise correlations. Creatine and several metabolites, including isoleucine, trans-aconitate, and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), exhibited different quantitative relationships depending on gender. Dimethylamine had a different correlation with glycine and TMAO, based on gender. The correlation of TMAO with amino acids was considerably lower in obese, compared to normal, subjects. We expect that the results will shed light on the metabolic pathways of healthy humans and will assist in the accurate diagnosis of human disease.

Complexation of cesium ion by p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene ethyl ester was studied by NMR spectroscopy in nonpolar $CDCl_3$ and polar acetone-$d_6$ and the results were compared with each other. Analysis of temperature dependent $^1H$ spectra and titration curves reveals that both solvents result in a 1 : 1 cone-form complex with nonpolar $CDCl_3$yielding a more tightly bound one than acetone-$d_6$. Unexpectedly, at very low temperature, we have found that two phenyl ring proton peaks of equal intensity appear both in $CDCl_3$and in acetone-$d_6$ solution which gradually collapse and eventually coalesce into a single line as temperature is raised. This observation could be interpreted in terms of the chemical exchange through direct and/or indirect interconversion between two equivalent conformations possible the complex in both solvents over the temperature range observed. And broadening of $^{133}Cs$ (I = 7/2) nmr line with increasing temperature has also been observed, indicating the exchange of $^{133}Cs$ ion between the complex and the solvent. From numerical fitting of lineshape changes for one-dimensional $^1H$ and $^{133}Cs$ spectra, the exchange rate constants and other relevant parameters for this conformational interconversion and the complex-solvent exchange were deduced.

We isolated Actinomycetes strain GMT 1155 and purified the active compound, MT 1155, on the morphological reversion of ts/NRK cell from the isolate. MT 1155 was identified as toyocamycin having antifungal and antitumor activities from physico-chemical properties and UV, IR, $^1H$-NMR, $^13C$-NMR and mass spectrum. MT 1155 showed the morphologically reversional activity on ts/NRK cell and the cytotoxicity on CTLL cell at the final concentrations of 1.7 JlM and 0.2 11M, respectively and its $IC_{50}$ value on protein kinase A enzyme was 2.3 $\mu$M. Also it had strong antifungal activity against several pathogenic fungi but not antibacterial activity. And it did not inhibit both protein kinase C activity and the bleb-formation of K562 cell induced by phorbol esters.

Asymmetric membranes for pervaporation were prepared with poly sulfone and sulfonated poly sulfone in order to separate water from 90% by weight butanol solution. Chlorosulfonic acid was reacted with trimethylchlorosilane for using as a sulfonating agent. The prepared polymers were characterized with FT-IR and $^1H$-NMR. The thermal properties of the polymers were examined with DSC and TGA. Back titration method was used for the evaluation of the degree of sulfonation or the ion ex¬change capacity. N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and diethyleneglycol dimethyl ether (DGDE) cosolvent were used for the preparation of asymmetric membranes. The cross section and skin layer of the mem¬branes were examined with scanning electron michroscopy to investigate membrane structure formed with cosolvent composition in the casting solution. In this article, the selectivity of the dense films were not different from each other so much. However, the permeation rates were significantly increased as much as 80 times compared to that of dense film.
