    Isolamento e avaliação da atividade nematicida de constituintes químicos de Mucuna cinerea contra Meloidogyne incognita e Heterodera glycine
    (Química Nova, 2003-05) Demuner, Antonio Jacinto; Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Nascimento, Jeferson Chagas do; Vieira, Jessy James; Santos, Maria Amelia dos
    Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts and roots of Mucuna cinerea led to the isolation of a mixture of fatty acids, triacylglicerols, b-sitosterol, stigmasterol, stigmasterol glucoside, daucosterol, asperglaucide (4) and the isoflavonoids prunetin (1), genistein (2), medicarpin (3), daidzein (5), 7-O-a-glycopiranosyl daidzein (6). An in vitro bioassay was carried out with compounds 1-4, at the concentration of 50 and 5 mg mL-1 against the phytonematodes M. incognita and H. glycines. Although the four compounds showed some nematocidal property, the most active was (1), causing 70% mortality of M. incognita at the concentration of 50 mg mL-1.

    Síntese de novos herbicidas derivados do 1, 2a, 4a, 5- tetrametil- 8- oxabiciclo[ 3. 2. 1] oct- 6- en- 3- ona
    (Química Nova, 2004-03) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Maltha, Célia Regina Álvares; Demuner, Antônio Jacinto; Filomeno, Claudinei Andrade; Silva, Antônio Alberto da
    In this paper we report the synthesis of biologically active compounds through a [3+4] cycloaddition reaction to produce the main frame structure, followed by several conventional transformations. The 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (11) obtained from a [3+4] cycloaddition reaction was converted into 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8 -oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-one (13) in 46% yield. This was further converted into the alcohols 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3 a-ol (14), 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8 -oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3b-ol (15), 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-3-butyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3 a-ol (17), 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-3-hexyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3 a-ol (18) and 1,2a,4a,5-tetramethyl-3-decyl-6,7-exo-isopropylidenedioxi-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3 a-ol (19). Dehydration of 17, 18 and 19 with thionyl chloride in pyridine resulted in the alkenes 20, 21 and 22 in ca. 82% - 89% yields from starting alcohols. The herbicidal activity of the compounds synthesized was evaluated at a concentration of 100 µg g-1. The most active compound was 21 causing 42,7% inhibition against Cucumis sativus L.

    Preparation and phytotoxicity of sorgoleone analogues
    (Química Nova, 2001-11) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Ferreira, Maria Lúcia; Demuner, Antonio Jacinto; Silva, Antonio Alberto da; Pereira, Rita de Cássia
    3,5-Dimethoxybenzylic alcohol was converted into the 2-acetoxy-5-methoxy-3-(pent-1-yl)-1,4-benzoquinone (12), in seven steps, with an overall yield of 14.6%. The natural quinone sorgoleone (1) was isolated from Sorghum bicolor and converted into the corresponding quinone (13) having a saturated side chain. The selective effects of these compounds (1, 12 and 13), at the dose of 5.6 mg of a.i./ g of substrate, on the growth of Cucumis sativus, Lactuca sativa, Desmodium tortuosum, Hyptis suaveolens and Euphorbia heterophylla were evaluated. All three compounds caused some inhibition on the root growth of the test plants (0.0-69.19%) with the aerial parts less affected. The results showed that the triene unit of the sorgoleone side chain is not essential for the phytotoxicity and also the synthetic quinone was as active as the natural product.

    (Química Nova, 2003-09) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Demuner, Antônio Jacinto; Maltha, Célia Regina Álvares; Silva, Patrícia Silvana da; Silva, Antônio Alberto da
    Several compounds related to helminthosporic acid (3) were synthesized via the [3+4] cycloaddition. The reaction of 3-hydroxymethyl-2-methylfuran (12) with 1,1,3,3-tetrabromo-4-methylpentan-2-one (13) resulted in 7-hydroxymethyl-4a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (8) (37%) and 7-hydroxymethyl-2a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (14) (12%), which were converted into 7-formyl-4a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (16) (32% from 8) and 7-formyl-2a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (18) (40% from 14), respectively. Reduction of (8) resulted in 7-hydroxymethyl-4a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6 -en-3a-ol (11) (63% from 8) and 7-hydroxymethyl-4a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3 b-ol (15) (30% from 8). The 4a-isopropyl-1a-methyl-3-oxo-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-7-oic acid (19) was obtained by oxidation of (16) (78%). The results of biological tests are described in details. The best result was observed for compound (15) that caused 76% inhibition on the root growth of D. tortuosum.

    Síntese e avaliação da atividade fitotóxica de lactonas derivadas do 2, 4- dimetil- 8- oxabiciclo[ 3. 2. 1]- oct- 6- en- 3- ona
    (Química Nova, 2002-04) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Maltha, Célia Regina Álvares; Borges, Eduardo Euclides Lima
    The alkene 2,4-dimethyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]-oct-6-en-3-one (3) was converted to 1,3,10-trimethyl-8-oxabicyclo[5.3.0]-dec-3-ene-2,9-dione (7) and 1,3-dimethyl-8-oxabicyclo[5.3.0]-dec-3-ene-2,9-dione (8) with a 55% overall yield in both cases. Lactones (7) and (8) were converted in two steps to 1,3,4-trimethyl-13-methylene-6-oxatricyclo[8.3.0.0 3,7]-trideca-2,5,12-trione (12) (63%) and 1,3-dimethyl-13-methylene-6-oxatricycle[8.3.0.0 3,7]-trideca-2,5,12-trione (13) (45% from 8). The effect of lactones (7), (8), (12), (13) and the intermediates (5) and (6), at the concentration of 250 mg mL-1, on the growth of Cucumis sativus L. and Sorghum bicolor L. was evaluated. The best results were observed for lactone (13) that caused 100% inhibition on the root growth of C. sativus and lactone (12) that inhibited 90% of the root growth for S. bicolor.

    A pentacyclic triterpene from Maytenus imbricata: structure elucidation by X-ray crystallography
    (Structural Chemistry, 2006-02) Pimenta Jr., Alécio Antonio; Silva, Sílvia Ribeiro de Souza e; Silva, Grácia Divina de Fátima; Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Ellena, Javier; Doriguetto, Antonio Carlos
    A pentacyclic triterpene, 3β,30-dihydroxy-lup-20(29)-ene, was isolated from the powder extract of Maytenus imbricata. The structure and stereochemistry of the compound were established by spectroscopic techniques and unambiguously determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure shows one molecule in the asymmetric unit. The crystal packing is stabilized by O–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which give rise to infinite helical chains along the c unit cell axis. The intra-molecular geometry was analyzed using MOGUL, a knowledge base of molecular geometry derived from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD).

    Chemical variation in the essential oil of Hyptis suaveolens (L.) Poit., under cultivation condition
    (Química Nova, 2006-07-25) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Martins, Felipe Terra; Santos, Marcelo Henrique dos; Polo, Marcelo
    This study was performed to establish the correlation between the growth conditions and essential oil composition of Hyptis suaveolens from Alfenas (MG), Brazil. The plants were grown in a greenhouse, four treatments were used and they were harvested at two different periods of time (60 and 135-day-old plants). The essential oil composition was determined by GC-MS analysis. The terpenes spathulenol, globulol, dehydroabietol, a-cadinol and b-phellandrene were the major constituents found in the essential oil. Oxygenated sesquiterpenes represented the main group of constituents in most of the treatments. The major changes in the essential oil composition were found in 135-day-old plants grown under NPK deficiency. We also identified three groups of volatile components that have not been previously described in H suaveolens.

    Metodologia de extração e determinaçao do teor de extrativos em madeiras de eucalipto
    (Revista Árvore, 2006-09-03) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Silvério, Flaviano Oliveira; Gomide, José Lívio; Reis, Fernando Pinheiro; Piló-Veloso, Dorila
    Neste trabalho foi avaliado o teor de extrativos em madeiras de eucalipto, por meio de extrações com acetona, mistura de tolueno:etanol (2:1), clorofórmio e diclorometano. As maiores porcentagens de extrativos totais foram obtidas ao utilizar acetona como solvente. Os extratos obtidos em acetona e tolueno:etanol foram ressuspendidos em diclorometano, para avaliação do teor de extrativos lipofílicos. As porcentagens desses extrativos foram semelhantes às obtidas com diclorometano ou clorofórmio, em extrações diretas. Os extratos foram analisados por espectroscopia no infravermelho, para identificação dos principais grupos funcionais dos constituintes extraídos.

    (Chemistry & Biodiversity, 2006-05-23) Barbosa, Luiz Cláudio de Almeida; Alvarenga, Elson Santiago de; Demuner, Antônio Jacinto; Virtuoso, Luciano Sindra; Silva, Antônio Alberto
    Reaction of [(2-alkyloxy)methyl]-1,4-dimethoxybenzene 10 (alkyl=butyl, hexyl, decyl, tridecyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, and octadecyl) with ceric ammonium nitrate in order to produce p-benzoquinones (=cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diones) afforded 5-[(alkyloxy)methyl]-2-(4-formyl-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)benzo-1,4-quinones 12a-12g in yields that varied from 46 to 97%, accompanied by 2-[(alkyloxy)methyl]benzo-1,4-quinones 11a-11g in only small quantities (< or =5%). These quinones resemble the natural phytotoxic compound sorgoleone, found in Sorghum bicolor. This reaction exemplifies a general procedure for the synthesis of novel aryl-substituted p-benzoquinones. The selective effects of compounds 12a-12g, at the concentration of 5.5 ppm, on the growth of Cucumis sativus, Sorghum bicolor, Euphorbia heterophylla, and Ipomoea grandifolia were evaluated. All compounds caused some inhibition upon the aerial parts and root growth of the tested plants. The most active compound, 2-(4-formyl-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-[(tridecyloxy)methyl]-benzo-1,4-quinone (12d), caused between 3 and 18%, and 12 and 29% inhibition on the roots and aerial parts development of Cucumis sativus and Sorghum bicolor, respectively, and between 77 and 85%, and 34 and 52% inhibition on the roots and aerial parts growth of Euphorbia heterophylla and Ipomoea grandifolia, respectively.
