(2011-07) CORRÊA, Marivaldo José Costa; NUNES, Fátima Miranda; BITENCOURT, Heriberto Rodrigues; BORGES, Fábio Cardoso; GUILHON, Giselle Maria Skelding Pinheiro; ARRUDA, Mara Silvia Pinheiro; MARINHO, Andrey Moacir do Rosário; SANTOS, Alberdan Silva; ALVES, Claudio Nahum; BRASIL, Davi do Socorro Barros; SANTOS, Lourivaldo da Silva
The fungus Aspergillus flavus isolated as endophytic of the plant Paspalum maritimum Trin. was evaluated for its potential application in biotransformation reactions. The compounds chalcone (1), 3,4,5-trimethoxychalcone (2) and 2,3,4,4'-tetramethoxychalcone (3) were biotransformed, respectively, in dihydrochalcone (4), 3,4,5-trimethoxydihydrochalcone (5) and 2,3,4,4'-tetramethoxydihydrochalcone (6). The structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including 1D and 2D NMR techniques, and MS analysis. The dihydrochalcones 5 and 6 are new compounds.

Dados espectroscópicos de diterpenos labdânicos: uma análise teórica via RMN e DFT
(2015-06) SOUZA, Fabrine Silva de; SILVA, Silvana de Oliveira; FARIA, Lênio José Guerreiro de; ALVES, Claudio Nahum; MÜLLER, Adolfo Henrique; GUILHON, Giselle Maria Skelding Pinheiro; BRASIL, Davi do Socorro Barros
Labdane diterpenes exhibit important bioactivities such as cardiovascular effects in rats as well as effects in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and Alzheimer syndrome. Recently, the labdane diterpenes ent-13-epi-manoil oxide, ribenone and ribenol were isolated from Croton palanostigma. The computational method DFT/B3LYP/cc-pVDZ was used to optimize the structures of these diterpenes and to calculate infrared data. Chemical shifts (δH and δC) of the minimum energy structures (local minimum) were calculated and compared with the experimental data. Comparison of the NMR data by simple linear regression (SLR) showed satisfactory statistical results with a correlation coefficient (R2) and predictive ability (Q2) of over 98%. The predicted NMR data were used to confirm the δH values that have not been published.

(2009) BRASIL, Davi do Socorro Barros; MÜLLER, Adolfo Henrique; GUILHON, Giselle Maria Skelding Pinheiro; ALVES, Claudio Nahum; ANDRADE, Eloisa Helena de Aguiar; SILVA, Joyce Kelly do Rosário da; MAIA, José Guilherme Soares
The essential oils of leaves, twigs, branches, trunk bark and fruits of Croton palanostigma were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The main compounds found in the oil of the leaves were linalool (25.4%), (E)-caryophyllene (21.0%), methyleugenol (17.2%) and β-elemene (6.0%); in the oil of the twigs were α-pinene (41.4%), limonene (29.0%), sabinene (11.5%) and β-pinene (5.7%); in the oil of the branches were methyleugenol (24.1%), (E)-methylisoeugenol (15.3%), α-pinene (11.2%) and (E)-caryophyllene (8.5%); in the oil of the trunk bark were a-pinene (31.6%), methyleugenol (25.6%) and (E)-methylisoeugenol (23.7%); and in the oil of the fruits were linalool (42.7%), methyleugenol (16.3%) and β-elemene (6.4%). Statistical analysis showed that the leaves and fruit, and the branches and trunk bark, have significant similarities between them. In addition, the trunk bark oil has high brine shrimp larvicidal activity (LC50, 3.71 ± 0.01 mg mL-1).

Isolation, X-ray crystal structure and theoretical calculations of the new compound 8-Eepicordatin and identification of others terpenes and steroids from the bark and leaves of Croton palanostigma Klotzsch
(2010) BRASIL, Davi do Socorro Barros; MÜLLER, Adolfo Henrique; GUILHON, Giselle Maria Skelding Pinheiro; ALVES, Claudio Nahum; PERIS, Gabriel; LLUSAR, Rosa; MOLINER, Vicent
Phytochemical studies of the bark and leaves of Croton palanostigma Klotzsch (Euphorbiaceae) led to the isolation of a new clerodane diterpene, 8-epicordatin (2), in addition to 12-oxohardwickiic acid methyl ester (3), aparisthman, cordatin (1), ent-trachyloban-18-oic acid, ent-13-epimanoyl oxide, ent-3-oxo-13-epimanoyl oxide, ent-3β-hydroxy-13-epimanoyl oxide, sitosterol, stigmasterol, stigmastan-3-one, 6β-hydroxystigmast-4-en-3-one, 6β-hydroxystigmasta-4,22-dien-3-one, stigmast-4-en-3-one, stigmasta-4,22-dien-3-one, 3-O-acetylaleuritolic acid, 11α-hydroxyurs-12-en-3-one, α-amyrenone, 24-methylenecycloartenone and lupenone. These compounds were isolated using typical phytochemical procedures and the structures were deduced from spectroscopic studies, including 2D NMR experiments. In addition, the crystalline structure of 8-epicordatin (2) was determined by X-ray diffraction. NMR theoretical calculations at the B3PW91/DGDZVP level were used to confirm the assignment of the chemical shifts of the H-7α and H-7β hydrogens of 8-epicordatin.

Synthesis, X-ray crystal structure and theoretical calculations of antileishmanial neolignan analogues
(2010) NASCIMENTO, Josenaide Pereira do; SANTOS, Lourivaldo da Silva; SANTOS, Regina Helena de Almeida; TOZZO, Érica; FERREIRA, Janaina Gomes; CARMO, Maria Carolina Lima do; BRASIL, Davi do Socorro Barros; ALVES, Claudio Nahum
The synthesis and X-ray crystal diffraction structure of two analogues of neolignans, 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-phenylethanone (20) and 2-[(4-chlorophenyl)thio]-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)propan-1-one (12) is described. The compound 12 presents activity against intracellular Leishmania donovani and Leishmania amazonensis amastigotes that cause cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis. In addition, the density functional theory (DFT) with the B3LYP hybrid functional was employed to calculate a set of molecular descriptors for nineteen synthetic analogues of neolignans with antileishmanial activities. Afterwards, the stepwise discriminant analysis was performed to investigate possible relationship between the molecular descriptors and biological activities. Through this analysis the compounds were classified into two groups active and inactive according to their degree of biological activities, and the more important properties were charges on some key atoms, electronic affinity and ClogP.
