(Z)6,(E)8-heneicosadien-11-one: Synergistic sex pheromone component of Douglas-fir tussock moth, Orgyia pseudotsugata (McDunnough) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)

Three candidate sex pheromone components, (Z)6,(Z)9-, (Z)6,(E)8-, and (Z)6,(E)9-heneicosadien-11-one (Z6Z9, Z6E8, and Z6E9) were identified in pheromone gland extracts of female Douglas-fir tussock moths (DFTM), Orgyia pseudotsugata (McDunnough). Their occurrence in subnanogram quantities in extracts and structural conversion during analytical procedures and bioassays complicated chemical identifications. Complete identification required comparative analyses of stereoselectively synthesized and female-produced dienones by coupled gas chromatographic-electroanten-nographic detection (GC-EAD), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and coupled GC-mass spectromerry (MS). Determination of the pheromone component was contingent upon an experimental design that minimized structural rearrangement of dienones before and during the field test. In a 40-min field experiment, acetonitrile solutions of each of the above dienones were carried on Dry Ice to traps and were syringed onto cotton release devices below trap lids. In combination with the previously known sex pheromone component of DFTM, (Z)6-heneicosen-11-one (Z6), Z6E8 was the only synergistic dienone and the mixture was highly attractive. Because Z6 by itself attracts seven species of tussock months (two sympatric with DFTM), a blend of Z6 and Z6E8 may impart specificity to DFTM pheromone communication in commercial lures, this binary blend may facilitate species-specific, sensitive monitoring and efficacious control by mating disruption of this important forest defoliator.

In the present work, 103 novel acyclic nucleosides were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anticancer activities in vitro and in vivo. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that most target compounds inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells in vitro, of which 3-(6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl)dodecan-1-ol (9b) exhibited the most potent effect against the HCT-116 and SW480 cells with IC50 values of 0.89 and 1.15 μM, respectively. Furthermore, all of the (R)-configured acyclic nucleoside derivatives displayed more potent anticancer activity compared to their (S)-counterparts. Mechanistic studies revealed that compound 9b triggered apoptosis in the cancer cell lines via depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane and effectively inhibited colony formation. Importantly, compound 9b inhibited the growth of the SW480 xenograft in a mouse model with low systemic toxicity. These results indicated that acyclic nucleoside compounds are viable as potent and effective anticancer agents, and compound 9b may serve as a promising lead compound that merits further attention in future anticancer drug discovery.

The palladium-catalyzed oxidation of alkyl enol ethers to enals, which employs low loadings of a palladium catalyst, is described. The mild oxidation conditions tolerate a diverse array of functional groups, while allowing the formation of di-, tri-, and tetrasubtituted olefins. The application of this methodology to intramolecular reactions of alkyl enol ethers containing pendant alcohols provides furan and 2,5-dihydrofuran products.
