13. Absolute Configuration Reassignment of Natural Products: An Overview of the Last Decade
The assignment of absolute configuration (AC) is a crucial step in the structural characterization of natural products, especially for those subjected to biological assays. Methods such as X-ray crystallography, stereocontrolled organic synthesis, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and chiroptical spectroscopies are commonly used to determine the AC of chiral

14. Through-Bond and Through-Space Interactions in [2,2]Cyclophanes
The interpretation of the distortions of the electron distribution in [2,2]cyclophanes (22-CPs) is controversial. Some studies indicate that there is an accumulation of electron density (ρ) outside the cavity of 22-CPs. The nature of through-space (ts) interaction is still under debate. The relative importance of ts and through-bond (tb) is an open question

18. A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS CUMARINAS PARA A QUÍMICA MEDICINAL E O DESENVOLVIMENTO DE COMPOSTOS BIOATIVOS NOS ÚLTIMOS ANOS
Coumarins are natural products characterized as 2H-chromen-2-one, according to IUPAC nomenclature, largely distributed in plants, as well as, in species of fungi and bacteria. Nowadays, many synthetic procedures allow the discovery of coumarins with expanded chemical space. The ability to exert non-covalent interactions with many enzymes and receptors in liv

19. Identification of Potential Inhibitors of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Related Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Main Protease from Non-Natural and Natural Sources: A Molecular Docking Study
So far, there is neither a vaccine nor a specific antiviral drug to prevent or treat COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) infection. Recent studies have been done to investigate the capacity of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors be used in the treatment of COVID-19 patients. Some of those drugs have shown to be promising. Natural chemi

21. Synthesis and Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Properties of β-Hydroxy Sulfides, Sulfoxides, and Sulfones Derived from Cardanol and Glycerol Derivatives
Natural and synthetic sulfur-bearing organic compounds have many applications in medicinal chemistry. This article reports the preparation of amphiphilic β-hydroxy sulfides, sulfoxides, and sulfones derived from cardanol and glycerol. Thiolysis of cardanol epoxide 3 with various thiols (4a-4j) in ethanol or water yielded the corresponding β-hydroxy sulfide
