A new lignan, (+)-nortrachelogenin (I), and a known compound, daphnoretin were isolated from Wikstroemia indica C. A. Meyer (Thymelaeaceae). The structure of (+)-nortrachelogenin was established as 8(R), 8'(R)-4,4',8'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxylignan-olid(9, 9') on the basis of spectroscopic evidence and comparison with its enantiomer, (-)-nortrachelogenin. (+)-Nortrachelogenin (I) showed effects on the central nervous system producing depression in rabbits.

Several hundred flavonoid derivatives, natural and synthetic, which have been tested in the screening program of the National Cancer Institute, have been examined for indications of structure-activity relationships which might exist among these compounds. No such relationships are apparent. In spite of occasional activity these compounds do not warrant further detailed pursuit as anti-tumor agents.

The tropical weed Bidens pilosa L. (Asteraceae) contains a number of polyacetylenes which are phototoxic to bacteria, fungi, and human fibroblast cells in the presence of sunlight, artificial sources of long-wave ultraviolet light, or cool-white fluorescent light. The principle photoactive compound in the leaf, phenylheptatriyne, is present in the cuticle as well as in the underlying cells. Experiments with calf thymus DNA indicate that, unlike photoactive furanocoumarins, phenylheptatriyne does not form interstrand cross linkages with DNA in ultraviolet light.

Latex of Euphorbia tirucalli, collected in Colombia, yielded 12-O-2Z-4E-octadienoyl-4-deoxyphorbol-13-acetate (1), which exhibited an irritant potency equivalent to that of the standard irritant, phorbol-12-tetradecanoate-13-acetate, in a mouse ear test system. The unsaturated 4-deoxyphorbol diesters recently reported in E. tirucalli grown in South Africa were not observed in the present study.
Benzophenanthridine alkaloids, fagaronine 4, O-methylfagaronine 5,nitidine 1, allonitidine 3 and methoxydihydronitidine 2 have been shown to possess inhibitory activity against reverse transcriptase of RNA tumor viruses. The enzyme inhibition (50%) by these alkaloids was found in the range of 6-60 microgram per milliliter of the reaction mixture when polynucleotide-oligodeoxynucleotide complexes were used as template primers. The results suggested that the benzophenanthridine alkaloids interacted with the template primers (particularly of the A:T base pairs) and not with the enzyme proteins. Kinetics reaction of the reverse transciptase inhibition showed that the alkaloids stopped the DNA polymerase synthesis instantly, probably by interacting with the template primer.
