Synthesis of novel benzofuran isoxazolines as protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitors.

PTPases are considered to be involved in the etiology of diabetes mellitus and neural diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Therefore, PTPase inhibitors should be useful tools to study the role of PTPases in these diseases and other biological phenomena, and which can be developed into chemotherapeutic agents. In the present study, we have synthesized novel benzofuran isoxazolines 13-21 via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction using karanjin (1) and kanjone (2), isolated from Pongamia pinnata fruits. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated against PTPase enzyme. Compounds 19 and 20 displayed significant inhibitory activity with IC50 values 76 and 81 microM, respectively.

Synthesis of 4-hydroxy-1-methylindole and benzo[b]thiophen-4-ol based unnatural flavonoids as new class of antimicrobial agents.

Synthesis of nitrogen and sulfur heterocyclic mimics of furanoflavonoids have been achieved for the first time. Synthesized flavonoid alkaloids and thiophenyl flavonoids have been screened for antifungal and antibacterial activities. All the test compounds barring 25 exhibited antifungal activity. The compound 19 was the best and showed comparable MICs to the known compound karanjin. Compounds 5, 12, 14 and 22 also showed comparable MIC to karanjin.

Furanoflavonoids from Pongamia pinnata fruits.

Fruits of Pongamia pinnata afforded four new furanoflavonoids, pongapinnol A-D (1-4), and a new coumestan, pongacoumestan (5) along with thirteen known compounds 6-18. Compounds 16 and 17 are isolated for the first time from this plant. The structures of isolated compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation.

Furanoflavonoid glycosides from Pongamia pinnata fruits.

Pongamia pinnata fruits afforded three new furanoflavonoid glucosides, pongamosides A-C (1-3), and a new flavonol glucoside, pongamoside D (4). The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic studies. This is the first time that furanoflavone glucosides have been found as naturally occurring compounds.

Constituents of Pterocarpus marsupium: an ayurvedic crude drug.

Five new flavonoid C-glucosides, 6-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-benzofuran-7-C-beta-d-glucopyranoside (1), 3-(alpha-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzylidene)-6-hydroxybenzo-2(3H)-furanone-7-C-beta-d-glucopyranoside (2), 2-hydroxy-2-p-hydroxybenzyl-3(2H)-6-hydroxybenzofuranone-7-C-beta-d-glucopyranoside (4), 8-(C-beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-7,3',4'-trihydroxyflavone (5) and 1,2-bis(2,4-dihydroxy,3-C-glucopyranosyl)-ethanedione (6) and two known compounds C-beta-d-glucopyranosyl-2,6-dihydroxyl benzene (7) and sesquiterpene (8), were isolated from an aqueous extract of the heartwood of Pterocarpus marsupium. The structure has been established using spectroscopic data.
