Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism of 4R-Cembranoid
4R-cembranoid (4R) is a natural cyclic diterpenoid found in tobacco leaves that displays neuroprotective activity. 4R protects against NMDA, paraoxon (POX), and diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) damage in rat hippocampal slices and against DFP in rats in vivo.

Enzymkatalysierte späte Modifizierungen: Besser spät als nie
Späte Modifizierungen sind unerlässlich für die Diversifizierung von Verbindungen in der Synthese. Da Enzyme effiziente Werkzeuge für milde, Katalysator‐kontrollierte Funktionalisierungen bieten, sind neue biokatalytische Methoden für eine große Fülle orthogonaler Reaktionen entstanden.

Bioactive Natural, Biocatalytic, and Semisynthetic Tobacco Cembranoids
The two major Nicotiana tabacum tobacco cembranoids, (1 S,2 E,4 R,6 R,7 E,11 E)-2,7,11-cembratriene-4,6-diol (1) and its C-4 epimer, exhibit a wide range of interesting biological activities. Although the tumorigenesis inhibition activity of tobacco cembranoids have been known since the mid 1980's, only a limited number of investigations have targeted ...

Tobacco Cembranoids Block Behavioral Sensitization To Nicotine And Inhibit Neuronal Acetylcholine Receptor Function [PDF]
Cembranoids are cyclic diterpenoids found in tobacco and in marine invertebrates. The present study established that tobacco cembranoids inhibit behavioral sensitization to nicotine in rats and block several types of nicotine acetylcholine receptors ...

New Terpenes from the Egyptian Soft Coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi
Chemical investigations of the Egyptian soft coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi have led to the isolation of compounds 1–3 as well as the previously reported marine cembranoid diterpene sarcophine (4).

The application of gem‐hydrogenation, which exploits the electrophilic character of the ruthenium carbene intermediates transiently formed, to natural product total synthesis allowed the stereostructure of a pair of diastereomeric seco‐cembranoids that are almost indistinguishable by NMR to be rigorously assigned.

Cytotoxic Effects of Sarcophyton sp. Soft Corals—Is There a Correlation to Their NMR Fingerprints?
Sarcophyton sp. soft corals are rich in cembranoid diterpenes, which represent the main chemical defense of corals against their natural predators in addition to their myriad biological effects in humans. Quantitative NMR (qNMR) was applied for assessing
