RESUMO
Seven piperic acid amides along with their lower homologs (12) were synthesized using HATU-DIPEA coupling reagent. All the synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and vancomycin-resistant P. aeruginosa. They were found to be more active on P. aeruginosa than on S. aureus. However, they did not exhibit potent activity on Vancomycin resistant P. aeruginosa. Among the tested compounds, methylenedioxycinnamic acid amide of anthranilic acid (MDCA-AA, 2a) was found to be most active against S. aureus with MIC of 3.125 µg/ml. The PAS and INH amides of piperic acid were screened against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra strain. They were found to be most active among all the tested compounds but were found to be less active than the standard drug, isoniazid.

Ten malabaricane type triterpenes were isolated from the oleoresin of Ailanthus malabarica, out of which six (1-6) were new. For three of the known compounds (7-9), NMR assignments are being reported for the first time. Compound 10, a known one, is a new report from this source. The structures were established by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The oleoresin and some of the isolates did not possess antimicrobial activity and did not lyse RBCs.
