Article Abstract
Covering: up to 2018 Even today, when planar structures of natural products can be determined with microgram samples, the configurational assignment continues to be a challenge. The relative and absolute configurations of natural products can be assigned by devising original approaches, relying on carefully acquired data on a case-by-case basis. In this review, the most widely available methods and techniques for the absolute configuration determination of novel natural products are concisely discussed. Selected illustrative examples (case studies) are presented, where original approaches integrating different chemical, spectroscopic, and/or computational methods have been devised to solve intriguing stereochemistry issues of natural small molecules.

Soy protein remains a key component of plant-based food development, but its application is challenged by inherent allergenicity. Previous work identified that native amyloid-like protein aggregates in soy 7S globulin that resist gastrointestinal digestion and exhibit pronounced antigenicity. Herein, we demonstrate that protein deamidation significantly enhances proteolysis under an infant gastrointestinal digestion model, leading to ∼80 and 50% reductions in IgG- and IgE-binding capacities, respectively.

Hamigerans, a class of diterpenoid natural products isolated from marine sponge , are characterized by distinctive 6-6-5 or 6-7-5 tricyclic skeletons. These compounds have been a focal point for synthetic chemists in recent years due to their remarkable biological activities. In this Review, we summarize the progress made in the isolation, biosynthesis, bioactivity, and total synthesis of hamigerans, with particular emphasis on synthetic studies published since 2013.

The synthesis of -tetrakis(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)porphyrin [HT(3,4,5-OCH)PP] and cobalt(II) -tetrakis(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)porphyrin [Co(T(3,4,5-OCH)PP)] has been successfully accomplished. The oxidation properties of [Co(T(3,4,5-OCH)PP)] have been assessed through UV-vis, NMR, and EPR techniques. It can be seen in the UV-vis spectrum that adding SbCl caused extra peaks to appear at 674 nm, which means that a π-cation radical was formed.
