The lipase-catalyzed acetylation of a broad spectrum of racemic 2-hydroxy acids 1 to their 2-acetoxy acids 2 was shown to proceed with high enantioselectivity. Thus, the microbial lipases, in particular from Candidaantarctica and Burkholderiaspecies, are convenient biocatalysts for the synthesis of optically active 2-hydroxy acids in excellent enantioselectivity (ee values up to > 99%). The absolute

The invention relates to a compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof: wherein the substituents R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7 and X are defined herein, its synthesis and methods of controlling and monitoring populations of mealybugs.
A commercialpyrethrumextract was used as a source of chrysanthemol for the synthesis of the citrophilus mealybug (Pseudococcus calceolariae) sex pheromone. The chrysanthemic acid esters (pyrethrinsI) were isolated and subsequently reduced to obtain chrysanthemol, which was used for ester pheromone synthesis. Field tests showed that the pheromone synthesized using plant-derived chrysanthemol was

The present invention relates to a method for determining the effective flow rate of at least one semiochemical for controlling at least one coccoid insect pest using an artificial semiochemical matrix, and use of the effective flow rate for effectively controlling at least one coccoid insect pest through the diffusion of at least one semiochemical.
New diterpene pyrone-type compounds, metarhizins A and B, isolated from entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium flavoviride and their inhibitory effects on cellular proliferation
To date, entomopathogenic fungi have not been extensively examined by natural product chemists. In this study, we isolated novel pyrone diterpene-type compounds, metarhizins A (1) and B (2), from methanol extracts of entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium flavoviride. They showed potent and selective antiproliferative activity against both insect and human cancer cell lines. These results indicate that metarhizins A (1) and B (2) can be used as novel lead compounds for anti-cancer agents and probes for cell cycle regulation. To further investigate the structural requirements for this inhibitory activity, we synthesized many metarhizin derivatives and evaluated their antiproliferative activities. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
