Stephania hernandifolia belonging to the family Menispermaceae is the biggest storehouse of diphenylbisbenzylisoquinoline (DBBI) alkaloids. Exhaustive chemical processing of the bulb of S. hernandifolia by the application of modern separation techniques yielded a DBBI alkaloid which was identified as cycleanine using spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, $^1HNMR$. $^{13}CNMR$, Mass). Cycleanine showed significant anti-inflammatory activity against carrageenin induced paw oedema, comparable to that produced by diclofenac sodium, used as standard drug. It exhibited potent analgesic effects against chemical and thermal noxious stimuli. It was also found to possess anticonvulsive activity in the strychnine induced convulsion model.

A series of $MoO_3/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ catalysts with different Mo content (8 - 20 wt %) were prepared by simple co-precipitation followed by impregnation method and were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopic (EDS) techniques. The prepared materials were tested for catalytic activity by the synthesis of benzimidazole derivatives using condensation of aromatic aldehydes and o-phenylenediamine by conventional and microwave method. Obtained results reveal that the catalytic activity increases with increase in Mo wt % loading. The best catalytic activity was obtained with 20 wt % $MoO_3/CeO_2-ZrO_2$. The particle size or crystallite size was estimated using Debye-Scherrer equation. After completion of reaction, the catalyst can be recovered efficiently and reused with consistent activity.

A series of pyrimidine annulated dihydropyrano[2, 3-c]pyrazole derivatives were synthesized and screened for their antimicrobial activity. The precursor, dihydropyrano[2, 3-c]pyrazole was synthesised under catalyst free condition using PEG-400 as reaction medium which facilitated improved yield compared to base catalyzed reaction. Wide scope of substrates, simple workup procedure and high yield even in the absence of catalyst are the major highlights of the protocol. Dihydropyrano[2, 3-c]pyrazoles on condensation with formic acid formed pyrimidine annulated dihydropyrano[2, 3-c]pyrazole derivatives. All the products are characterized using FTIR, $^1H-NMR$ and $^{13}C-NMR$ spectroscopic techniques. The molecules have shown good to moderate activity as antimicrobial agents when compared to the standard drug ciprofloxacin.

The ruthenium(II) ferrocenyl heterocyclic thiosemicarbazone complexes of the type $[RuCl(CO)(EPh_3)]_2L$ (where E = P/As; L = binucleating monobasic tridendate thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been investigated. Strutural features were determined by analytical and spectral techniques. Binding of these complexes with CT-DNA by absorption spectral study indicates that the ruthenium(II) complexes form adducts with DNA and has intrinsic binding constant in the range of $3.3{\times}10^4-1.2{\times}10^5M^{-1}$. The complexes exhibit a remarkable DNA cleavage activity with CT-DNA in the presence of hydrogen oxide and the cleavage activity depends on dosage.

In a bioassay-guided search for anti-allergic compounds from higher plants of Korea, poly-methoxyflavones, 3',4',5,6,7,8-hexamethoxyflavone (I), 5-hydroxy-3',4',6,7,8-pentamethoxyflavone (II) and 3',4',5,7,8-pentamethoxyflavone (III) have been isolated from the immature peels of Citrus unshiu. Structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic techniques. Compounds I and II inhibited dose-dependent histamine release from the rat peritoneal mast cells activated by compound 48/80 or anti-DNP IgE.

고추 역병균(疫病菌)(P. capsici)에 우수(優秀)한 항균활성(抗菌活性)을 가진 3가지의 항균물질(抗菌物質)을 Pseudomonas sp. A-183 배양액(培養液)으로 부터 분리(分離) 정제(精製)하였다. 분리(分離)된 3가지의 항균물질(抗菌物質)에 대한 분자구조식(分子構造式)을 구명(究明)하기 위하여 UV, IR, $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR Spectroscopy법(法)으로 해석하였다. A와 B물질(物質)은 Molish 및 Anthrone반응(反應)에 양성(陽性)으로, Fehling반응(反應)에는 음성(陰性)으로 나타났으므로 nonreducing sugar구조(構造)를 함유(含有)하고 있는 것으로 판단되었다. C물질(物質)은 위의 시약(試藥)에서 정색반응(呈色反應)을 나타내지 않고 단지 UV흡수(吸收)만을 나타내었다. Mass, NMR 및 IR 분광분석(分光分析)에 의해 A와 B물질(物質)은 당(糖)으로는 deoxyhexose인 rhamnose를 포함하고 지방산으로는 ${\beta}-hydroxydecanoic$ acid를 포함하였다. 또 이들 사이에는 O-glycoside결합(結合)이 형성(形成)되어 있었으며 A와 B물질(物質) 사이에는 당(糖) 한분자(分子)의 차리(差異)가 나타났다. 종합적(綜合的)으로 A물질(物質)은 glycolipid B인 3-hydroxy-(3-hydroxydecanoyl) -decanoic acid $3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\to}2)rhamnopyranoside$, B물질(物質)은 glycolipid A인 3-hydroxy-(3`-hydroxydecanoyl)decanoic acid $3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranoside$로 동정(同定)되었으며, C물질(物質)은 phenazine으로 확인(確認)되었다.
