Anthracycline glycosides of 2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-L-talopyranose.

The methyl beta-glycoside of the title sugar, obtained from 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-glucopyranose tetraacetate by a sequence with detailed characterization of all intermediates, was converted by acetolysis-bromination into 3,4-di-O-acetyl-2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-L-talopyranosyl bromide, coupling of which with (7S,9S)-4-demethoxydaunomycinone afforded the 3,4-diacetate of 4-demethoxy-9-O-(2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-L-talopyranosyl)daunomycinone (19). The antitumor-active 19 was converted by way of its 14-bromo derivative into the 14-hydroxy analogue, the antitumor-active 4-demethoxyadriamycinone glycoside 21.

Quassinoids from Ailanthus excelsa.

Three quassinoids, 1, 2 and 3, 4-dihydro excelsin 3 were isolated from the stem bark of Ailanthus excelsa, along with five known quassinoids excelsin, glaucarubine, ailanthinone, glaucarubinone and glaucarubolone. The glaucarubolone has been isolated for the first time from this plant. The structural elucidation is based on the analysis of spectroscopic data.

Pregnanes and pregnane glycosides from Marsdenia roylei.

Two pregnanes namely desacylkondurangogenin C (1) and deniagenin (3, new) and two new pregnane glycosides designated as denin (5) and marsin (12) have been isolated from chloroform soluble extract of dried stem of Marsdenia roylei. Chemical and spectroscopic evidences are consistent with the structures of deniagenin, denin and marsin as 3beta, 11alpha, l2beta, 14beta, 17beta, 20-hexahydroxy pregn-5-ene; desacylkondurangogenin C-3-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-O-alpha-L-fucopyranoside and ketocalogenin-3-O-alpha-L-fucopyranoside, respectively.

Antifungal activity of the stem bark of Ailanthus excelsa.

The methanol extract of stem barks of Alianthus excelsa was partitioned with chloroform. The chloroform extract showed fungistatic and fungicidal activity against Aspergillus niger, A. fumigatus, Penicillium frequentence, P. notatum and Botrytis cinerea.
