2. 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

3. Unveiling the Bacterial Sesquiterpenome of Streptomyces sp. CBMAI 2042 Discloses Cyclases with Versatile Performances
Terpenes are the most abundant class of natural product that exist in nature. They possess a myriad of industrial applications including pharmaceutical, perfumery and flavors, bulk chemicals, and fuel. Intriguingly, until today, the vast majority of characterized terpenoids have been isolated from plants and fungi, and only in recent years bacteria were foun

4. Isolation and characterization of sesquiterpene lactones from Calea uniflora Less. and their leishmanicidal and trypanocidal activities
Calea uniflora Less., commonly known in Brazil as “erva-de-lagarto” and “arnica-da-praia”, is used in folk medicine to treat internal and external bruises and as anti-inflammatory. However, despite the popular use there is a lack of information in terms of isolation and biological evaluation of its secondary metabolites. Thus, the aims of this study

6. Simultaneous determination and difference evaluation of volatile components generated from ginseng fruit by HS-SPME Coupled with GC-MS according to fruit color
Abstract The volatile components of fruits of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer analyzed to interpret whether fruits color affect volatile components. The volatile components in ginseng fruits cultured with 3 different clolors such as red fruits, yellow fruits and orange fruits were isolated by head-space solid-phase microextraction fiber (polydimethylsiloxane 100 μ

7. Mango (Mangifera indica) Aroma Discriminate Cultivars and Ripeness Stages
Mango (Mangifera indica) has many nutritional attributes that stimulate its consumption, such as sweetness, balanced acidity and intense fruity aroma. In this study, it was demonstrated that both the variety and ripening stage have a significant impact on the aroma of mango. The volatile compound profile of “Tommy Atkins”, “palmer”, “espada” and

8. Diversity of the diterpenes in the leaves of Xylopia laevigata (Annonaceae) and their cytotoxicities
The phytochemical investigation of the hexane extract which was obtained from the leaves of Xylopia laevigata (Annonaceae) produced six terpenes. Among these, five diterpenes named abieta-7,13-dien-3-one, ent-7β-acetoxy-16β-hydroxy-kaurane, 4-epi-cupressic acid, powerol, and labdorffianic acid B, and one oxygenated sesquiterpene, spathulenol. This is the f
