| Summary: | 2-Aryldihydrobenzofuran neolignans (tomentosanan A, ficusal, tomentosanan B) and 2-
arylbenzofuran neolignans (zanthocapensole, zanthocapensate) have been isolated from
the plants were synthesized and evaluated for their larvicidal activities against
Crocidolimia binotalis. Two Heck coupling methods have been developed are using an
activated C-I bond of iodovanillin or non-activated C-H bond of vanillin and alkene of
cinnamic acid derivatives or methyl cinnamate derivatives. Heck coupling reaction
between iodovanillin or vanillin with a series of cinnamic acid derivatives lead to the
formation of eleven new compounds and four known compounds are 2-
aryldihydrobenzofuran neolignan, 3-arylbenzofuran neolignans, 2-arylbenzofuran
neolignans and stilbenes. The reaction involves a series of methyl cinnamate derivatives
has resulted in the formation of five new compounds and three known compounds are
lignans, neolignans, 2,3-diarylbenzofuran neolignan and coumarins. Both methods have
been developed then have applied to the synthesis of five natural products of 2-
arydihydrobenzofuran neolignans and 2-arylbenzofuran neolignans. All the targeted
dihydrobenzofuran neolignans have synthesized as a single enantiomer form namely (+)-
tomentosanan A, (+)-ficusal and (+)-tomentosanan B. Two routes have utilized to
synthesize zanthocapensole and zanthocapensate and only their derivatives have been
obtained from both routes. The selected compounds have been obtained from the Heck
methods development and syntheses part have tested for larvicidal activity by using
Crocidolomia binotalis larvae and azadirachtin as the commercial standard (LD50 = 2.818).
The results indicate some of the compounds have significant activity such as
dihydrobenzofuran neolignan, benzofuran neolignans, lignans, neolignans, stilbene and
coumarin. Among all active compounds, (2E,3E)-dimethyl 2,3-bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-
dimethoxybenzylidene)succinate (lignan) and methyl-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-
{2-methoxy-4[(E)-3-methoxy-3-oxo-prop-1-enyl]phenoxy}-prop-2-enoate (neolignan)
have showed the strongest activity with LD50=1.678 mg/L and LD50=2.218 mg/L,
respectively. |
