RESUMEN
From the n-hexane extract of the liverwort Porella perrottetiana collected in Sapa (North Vietnam), a new sacculatane diterpenoid (perrottetianal E (1)) and a new oplopanone sesquiterpenoid ((+)-oplopanone C (2)), along with two known sesquiterpenes (3 and 4), and two known phaeophytins (5 and 6) have been isolated. Their structures were elucidated based on the analysis of NMR spectroscopic data, in combination with HR-ESIMS and the reported data. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against three cancer cell lines: KB (human carcinoma in the mouth), HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma), and A549 (human lung carcinoma).
RESUMEN
A series of sixteen A-ring modified (2,3-indolo-, 2-benzylidene) oleanonic acid derivatives, holding some cyclic amines, linear polyamines and benzylaminocarboxamides at C28, has been synthesized and screened for antiviral activity against influenza A/PuertoRico/8/34 (H1N1) and Dengue virus serotypes of DENV-1, -2, -3, -4. It was found that 28-homopiperazine 2 and 3-N-phthalyl 22 amides of oleanonic acid demonstrated high potency with selectivity index SI 27 (IC50 21 µM) and 42 (IC50 12 µM). Oleanonic acid aminoethylpiperazine amide 6 and C-azepano-erythrodiol 23 appeared to be the most effective compounds against DENV-1 (IC50's 67 and 107 µM) and -2 (IC50's 86 and 68 µM correspondingly) serotypes.

Two new neolignan sesquiterpenoids, chevalierinol A (1) and chevalierinol B (2), were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of Magnolia chevalieri leaves, together with twelve known compounds (3-14). Their structures were elucidated by analysis of spectroscopic data including 1D, 2D and mass spectra and compared with the reported data. Compounds 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10 were evaluated for their inhibitory effect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 macrophage cells.

Two new prenylisoflavones, 3',4',5-trihydroxy-8-prenyl-dihydrofuran[2â³,3â³:7,6]isoflavone (1) and 4',5-dihydroxy-8-prenyl-dihydrofuran[2â³,3â³:7,6]isoflavone (2), along with five known prenylisoflavones (3-7), benzylalcohol-4-O-ß-d-glucoside (8) and two cinnamic acid esters (9, 10) were isolated from the leaves of Maclura cochinchinensis (Cudrania cochinchinensis). Their structures were elucidated by analysis of NMR (1H-, 13C-NMR, HSQC, HMBC), MS spectra and comparison with the published data. Compounds 4-10 were the first time isolated from this species. Prenylisoflavones 1-4 and 6-7 were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity on KB and HepG2 cancer cell lines. Compound 4 showed cytotoxic activity against both cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 26.99 and 19.95 µM, respectively. The other compounds were considered as inactive.
