1. Synthesis and Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity of 1,2,3-Triazole and Ether Derivatives of Paeonol
Multi-drug-resistant bacteria (MDR) are the cause of different infections and diseases that have affected humanity for a long time, and have been an emerging global health problem that has led to increased morbidity and mortality. The growing emergence of MDR bacteria has underlined the need for development and discovery of new antibacterial compounds. In th

2. Natural and Semisynthetic Triterpenes from Combretum leprosum Mart. with Antiplasmodial Activity
Malaria is responsible for thousands of deaths each year. Currently, artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) is used as first-choice medication against the disease. However, the emergence of resistant strains prompts the search for alternative compounds. The present study aimed to investigate the antiplasmodial activities of natural triterpenes (compounds 1 an

3. ARTEMISININA E DERIVADOS: DESCOBERTA, ESTRATÉGIAS SINTÉTICAS E OBTENÇÃO INDUSTRIAL
Artemisinin, a natural sesquiterpene isolated from the Artemisia annua L. plant, represents a remarkable achievement in the treatment against malaria. Since its discovery in the 1970’s, researchers readily started synthesizing this complex natural product containing an unusual endoperoxide fragment. Despite various total syntheses reported, only in the las

4. Anti-Hyperglycemic Activities, Molecular Docking and Structure-Activity Relationships (SARs) Studies of Endiandric Acids and Kingianins from Endiandra kingiana
Diabetes has become a severe chronic disease worldwide with patients significantly increasing daily. Due to the side effects of insulin and oral hypoglycaemic agents employed in diabetes treatment, scientists are working hard to develop alternative approaches from natural plants that inhibit α-amylase and α-glucosidase. Consequently, by performing a phytoc

5. Novel Insecticides from Alkylated and Acylated Derivatives of Thymol and Eugenol for the Control of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)
Plutella xylostella cause considerable harm to the production of broccoli, Chinese cabbage, cabbage and cauliflower. The control of P. xylostella is mainly performed using commercial insecticides, which have even led to the emergence of resistant populations. Two easily available natural products found in different plants essential oil, thymol and eugenol, s

6. DESENVOLVIMENTO DE ACESSÓRIO PORTÁTIL DE CONTROLE DE TEMPERATURA PARA MEDIDAS ESPECTROSCÓPICAS
Temperature is a natural phenomenon that may modify the structure of chemical compounds and hence their properties. We aimed to develop a simple portable system based on the Peltier principle for spectral characterization of compounds with temperature-dependent structure. The device was constructed and adapted to three pieces of equipment: X-ray diffractomet

7. K2O SUPORTADO EM ZEÓLITA NATURAL: SÍNTESE, CARACTERIZAÇÃO E APLICAÇÃO PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A PARTIR DO ÓLEO DE GIRASSOL
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel, a substitute for fossil diesel, which is important for reducing GHG in Brazil. Therefore, this work aims to synthesize and characterize the catalyst using the support of natural zeolite impregnated with K2O and apply it in the production of biodiesel through the transesterification reaction. Through the analysis of characteriza

8. Synthesis of Eugenol-Fluorinated Triazole Derivatives and Evaluation of Their Fungicidal Activity
Eugenol (C10H12O2, 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol) is a phenolic natural product that has several biological activities and possibilities of applications. It is herein described the synthesis of eugenol-fluorinated triazole derivatives and evaluation of their fungicidal activity. The reaction of eugenol with epichlorohydrin resulted in the preparation of (±)-2-((4

9. Quality Control for Lignin and Gelatin Microcapsules Loaded with Orange Essential Oil
Sustainable natural product-based microstructured systems and biopolymers are strong candidates for use in crop protection. Lignin and gelatin microcapsules loaded with orange essential oil were developed with spray-drying in order to enhance its potential. We evaluated the microparticle controlled release mechanisms, biological effects, structural and therm

10. RECENT ADVANCES IN CYANATION REACTIONS
Transformations involving structurally complex molecules, natural products and representative molecules are extremely important to obtain key reaction intermediates, in addition to accessing molecules with bioactive properties. The development of cyanation methodologies in those molecules becomes important, because nitriles are versatile and important buildi

11. Antibacterial Profile in vitro and in vivo of New 1,4-Naphthoquinones Tethered to 1,2,3-1H-Triazoles Against the Planktonic Growth of Streptococcus mutans
The cariogenic processes are mainly caused by the bacterium Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and consist of the demineralization of the tooth that occurs when the acid production overcomes the natural repair or if a problem occurs in the last one. In this work, we performed the synthesis of twenty-one 1,4-naphthoquinones tethered to 1,2,3-1H-triazoles (8a-8k

12. Physicochemical, sensory properties and in-vitro bioaccessibility of phenolics and antioxidant capacity of traditional noodles enriched with carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) flour
Abstract In this study, the use of carob flour (CF) was investigated to improve the nutritional, antioxidative, and sensory properties of the noodles produced by the traditional method. In traditional noodle production, carob flour was used as a substitute to wheat flour at six different ratios (0% -control: Cmilk, Cwater, 10-40%, CF; w/w). In the noodle sam
