Isolation, characterization and insect growth inhibitory activity of major turmeric constituents and their derivatives againstSchistocerca gregaria (Forsk) andDysdercus koenigii (Walk)
bisdemethoxycurcumin (3), the curcuminoid constituents of the medicinal plant Curcuma longa L., have been structurally modified to 55 analogs and antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been evaluated. Among the highly active curcuminoids, the isoxazole analogs are the most active group, with mono-O-methylcurcumin isoxazole (53) being the most active compound (MIC 0.09 μg/mL). It was
