A thermoregulated phase-separable chiral Pt nanocatalyst for recyclable asymmetric hydrogenation of α-ketoesters

The design and preparation of a chiral Pt nanocatalyst system possessing thermoregulated phase-separation property and its application in recyclable asymmetric hydrogenation of α-ketoesters are presented.

Lipopeptides from the tropical marine cyanobacterium symploca sp.

A collection of the tropical marine cyanobacterium Symploca sp., collected near Kimbe Bay, Papua New Guinea, previously yielded several new metabolites including kimbeamides A-C, kimbelactone A, and tasihalide C. Investigations into a more polar cytotoxic fraction yielded three new lipopeptides, tasiamides C-E (1-3). The planar structures were deduced by 2D NMR spectroscopy and tandem mass spectrometry, and their absolute configurations were determined by a combination of Marfeys and chiral-phase GC-MS analysis. These new metabolites are similar to several previously isolated compounds, including tasiamide (4), grassystatins (5, 6), and symplocin A, all of which were isolated from similar filamentous marine cyanobacteria.

Lyngbyabellins K-N from two Palmyra atoll collections of the marine cyanobacterium Moorea bouillonii

Five lipopeptides of the lyngbyabellin structure class, four cyclic (1-3 and 5) and one linear (4), were isolated from the extracts of two collections of filamentous marine cyanobacteria obtained from the Palmyra Atoll in the Central Pacific Ocean. Their
