    Neo-Clerodanes From Teucrium Divaricatum Subsp. Divaricatum and Their Biological Activity Assessment
    (Elsevier, 2023) Aydoğan, Fadime; Ali, Zülfiqar; Zülfiqar, Fazila; Karaalp, Canan; Khan, Ikhlas A.; Bedir, Erdal
    Fifteen neo-clerodane diterpenoids (1–15), including two undescribed glycosides, teudivaricosides A (1) and B (2), together with a known iridoid glycoside (16) and a phenylpropanoid glycoside (17) from the whole plant of Teucrium divaricatum subsp. divaricatum were isolated. Their structures were determined by spectral data analysis including 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS. Neo-clerodane diterpenoids were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities. None of them showed significant antimicrobial activity against various bacterial and fungal strains (up to 20 µg/mL). All tested compounds were inactive up to the highest tested concentration of 50 µM on iNOS inhibitory activity.

    Specialized Metabolites From the Aerial Parts of Centaurea Polyclada Dc.
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Demir, Serdar; Karaalp, Canan; Bedir, Erdal
    The genus Centaurea L. (Asteraceae) is represented by 200 taxa in the flora of Turkey and several Centaurea species are used as herbal remedies against different conditions. Previous phytochemical investigations on this genus generally revealed the isolation of sesquiterpene lactones and flavonoid derivatives. In our continuous search on Centaurea genus, a phytochemical study was performed on Centaurea polyclada DC., an endemic of West Anatolia. Previously undescribed two sesquiterpene-amino acid conjugates, an elemane and an eudesmane derivative were isolated from the aerial parts of Centaurea polyclada, together with eight known compounds; two elemane derivatives, three flavonoids, a lignan, a phenolic glucoside and a phenylpropanoid glucoside. Structural elucidation of the compounds was based on spectroscopic evidence, including 1D and 2D NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry, chemical degradation results and reference data comparison. Sesquiterpene-amino acid conjugates are representatives of an unusual group of sesquiterpenes, and elemane-amino acid conjugates are herein reported for the first time in nature.
