    Additions to the moss flora of Endau Rompin National Park, Johore State, peninsular Malaysia

    No full text
    In a recent survey of the Endau Rompin National Park (ERNP) in Johore State, 81 species and 4 varieties of mosses were documented. This increases the previous count from 62 species and 3 varieties of mosses in ERNP to 111 species and 5 varieties in total. Of these, 30 species are new records for Johore State. Rhaphidostichum bunodicarpum and Trichosteleum stigmosum are two species new to Peninsular Malaysia. Thuidium assimile is a new record for West Malesia. A new combination, Papillidiopsis aquaticum (Dix.) Boon-Chuan Ho & B.C. Tan is proposed. In terms of species composition, the pan-tropical families of Calymperaceae, Fissidentaceae, Leucobryaceae and Sematophyllaceae predominate the moss flora of ERNP

    Photoinduced C—C Bond Cleavage and Oxidation of Cycloketoxime Esters

    No full text
    A novel structural reorganization of cycloketoxime esters beyond the traditional Beckmann rearrangement process has been established to build cyano-containing ketones in the presence of photocatalyst. This novel transformation is remarkable with selective C—C bond cleavage and an oxidation process enabled by DMSO used as the solvent, oxidant, and oxygen source avoiding acid, base and toxic cyanide salts as the cyano source. Further applications in late-stage modification of complex and chiral molecules have also been reported

    Toward the Synthesis of the Fungal Metabolite (-)-TAN-2483B

    In the search of chemical species with potential therapeutic biological activity, synthetic chemists have looked to nature for inspiration. Molecules built by biological machinery often have structures predisposed for biological interaction.  (-)-TAN-2483B and the related compounds (-)-TAN-2483A, and waol A are fungal metabolites that display biological activity in kinase inhibition and parathyroid-induced bone resorption. Though total syntheses of (-)-TAN-2483A and waol A have been achieved, the established methodology does not afford access to (-)-TAN-2483B owing to the unique relative configuration about the ring system.  Derivatives of D-galactal have been synthesised, and functionalised at the C-1 and C-2 positions, laying the groundwork for a route to (-)-TAN-2483B and analogues. Using D-galactal derivatives is advantageous as it circumvents some difficult transformations in the existing method for analogue synthesis.  The functionalities installed were halide and formyl groups at the C-2 position, and acetylenes at the C-1 position. The synthesis of 2-haloglycals from tri-O-acetyl-D-galactal using N-halosuccinimides was achieved in 32% and <37% for the bromo- and iodo- variants respectively. Vilsmeier-Haack formylation was explored using per-benzylated and per-acetylated galactals as substrates. Formylation of the per-benzylated species was achieved in 78% yield in accordance with literature values. Vilsmeier-Haack formylation on the per-acetylated galactal has not been reported and the glycal was found to be a poor substrate for the formylation. Theories regarding the incompatibility of the per-acetylated species with Vilsmeier-Haack conditions were developed.  Ferrier-type alkynylation of the 2-halo/formylglycals was explored, with yields up to 17% and 13% for the bromo- and iodo- species (unoptimised), and 7% for 2-formylglycal (after optimisation studies). The resulting 1-ethynyl-2-formyl/halo-2,3-unsaturated pyrans could be potential intermediates en route to the furanone ring of the target compound.</p

EAST MALAYSIA, Sabah State, Sepilok Calling song (1 &male;, in captivity, 26.4°C) (Fig. 2). The calling song generally consists of a sequence of echemes which can be highly variable in duration (8–26 s). The echeme sequence typically begins with the echemes more erratic in terms of number of syllables, syllable durations and intervals. Each echeme is made up of 4–10 syllables (= pulses), and has an average duration of 140.9±65.3 ms (78.0–249.1 ms). Consecutive echemes have an average interval of 371.6±86.3 ms (285.6–474.3 ms). The average syllable duration is 14.1±1.5 ms (11.9–15.6 ms) and the average interval between consecutive syllables is 7.2±1.6 ms (5.4–9.7 ms). The dominant frequency is 8.34 kHz. Compared to the continuous trill of Cycloptiloides timah Ingrisch, 2006 from Singapore (see Tan et al., under review), the calling song of C. bimaculatus also differs by a distinctly shorter syllable duration (14.1 ms in C. bimaculatus vs. 25.7 ms in C. timah) and by the intervals between consecutive syllables (7.2 ms vs. 104.5 ms). The dominant frequency is also distinctly lower (8.3 kHz vs. 9.1 kHz). It should be noted that the average temperature of the recordings for the two species are different (26.5°C in C. bimaculatus vs. 30.5°C in C. timah), which may have contributed partly to the differences in the call parameters between the two species.Published as part of Tan, Ming Kai, Japir, Razy, Chung, Arthur Y.
