Carvacrol and thymol exhibited comparable or better antifungal activity than potassium metabisulphite, commercially used wine preservative, against the natural yeast flora and spoilage yeasts. The antifungal activity for both the compounds was better at pH 3.5 than pH 6.5. Addition of carvacrol and thymol (64 mu g/mL) in red wine resulted in inhibition of growth of the spoilage yeasts. Carvacrol and thymol exerted their antimicrobial action through membrane damage, leakage of cytoplasmic content and ergosterol depletion. In conclusion, carvacrol and thymol holds promise as a potential natural preservative for the control of wine spoilage. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

The structure of compound 1 was elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR analyses that included HSQC, HMBC, COSY and ROESY experiments along with the literature comparison. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for antifungal activity against different human pathogenic yeasts and filamentous fungi. The antiproliferative activity of the compounds was evaluated against Thp-1 cell lines. Compounds 1 and 2 both exhibited IC50 of 8, 4 and 16 mu g/mL against Cryptococcus neoformans PRL518, C. neoformans ATCC32045 and Aspergillus fumigatus, respectively. Compound 4, at 100 mu g/mL, showed 54% growth inhibition of Thp-1 cell lines.</p>10a4 `-hydroxyrottlerin10aantifungal10adimeric chalcone10akamalachalcone E10aMallotus philippinensis10arottlerin1 aKulkarni, Roshan, R.1 aTupe, Santosh, G.1 aGample, Suvarna, P.1 aChandgude, Macchindra, G.1 aSarkar, Dhiman1 aDeshpande, Mukund, V.1 aJoshi, Swati, P.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/antifungal-dimeric-chalcone-derivative-kamalachalcone-e-mallotus-philippinensis-002896nas a2200313   4500008004100000022001400041245011800055210006900173260010300242300001200345490000700357520176400364653000602128653000602134653002702140653003302167653001502200653001602215653003002231100002602261700002202287700002502309700002102334700002602355700002702381700002402408700002602432856012402458       2015                        eng d  a0376-469900aSynthesis and antifungal potential of 1,2,3-triazole and 1,2,4-triazole thiol substituted strobilurin derivatives0 aSynthesis and antifungal potential of 123triazole and 124triazol  aANUSANDHAN BHAWAN, 2 RAFI MARG, NEW DELHI, 110001, INDIAbCOUNCIL SCIENTIFIC & INDUSTRIAL REScJUL  a908-9170 v543 a<p>beta-Methoxyacrylate group is an important pharmacophore of commercially used strobilurin fungicides. In the present study, a total of seventeen 1,2,4-triazole thiols 8a-h and 1,2,3-triazole substituted 10a-i strobilurin derivatives have been synthesized. 1,2,4-Triazole thiol substituted strobilurin derivatives 8a-h have been found to inhibit the growth of plant pathogens such as Fusarium oxysporum, Magnaporthe grisea, Drechslera oryzae and human pathogens Aspergillus fumigatus and different strains of Cryptococcus neoformans, with MIC in the range of 16-256 mu g/mL. In case of Candida albicans tested strain, the MIC is &gt; 256 mu g/mL. p-Chlorophenyl substituted 1,2,4-triazole thiol strobiulrin derivative 8e is the most potent inhibitor with MIC of 16-64 mu g/mL against most of the tested pathogens. Antifungal action of the compounds is due to inhibition of mitochondrial respiration. In the resazurin reduction assay, EC50 for inhibition of RZ reduction in D. oryzae by azoxystrobin and 8e are 3.42 +/- 0.03 mu g/mL and 3.63 +/- 0.21 mu g/mL, respectively; while in case of C. neoformans, EC50,, of azoxystrobin and 8e are between 0.65-0.85 mu g/mL. In a non-pathogenic model Benjaminiella poitrasii, though the MIC for all the synthesized compounds 8a-h and 10a-i are &gt; 256 mu g/ml, yeast to hypha transition is inhibited in the range of 21-75% at 4 mu g/mL concentration while EC50 for inhibition of RZ reduction by azoxystrobin and 8e are 31.5 +/- 0.4 mu g/mL and 17.95 +/- 0.7 mu g/mL, respectively. The 50% germ tube formation inhibition in case of C. albicans is observed at 108.49 mu g/mL. 1,2,4-Triazole thiol substituted strobilurin derivatives hold promise for the control of pathogenic fungi in agriculture and health care.</p>10a110a210a3-triazole strobilurin10a4-triazole thiol strobilurin10aantifungal10aStrobilurin10aY-H transition inhibition1 aChaudhary, Preeti, M.1 aTupe, Santosh, G.1 aJorwekar, Shweta, U.1 aSant, Duhita, G.1 aDeshpande, Sunita, R.1 aMaybhate, Shailaja, P.1 aLikhite, Anjali, P.1 aDeshpande, Mukund, V.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/synthesis-and-antifungal-potential-123-triazole-and-124-triazole-thiol-substituted-0
