The main mol-ecule of the title compound, C(2)H(8)N(+)·C(25)H(31)O(5) (-)·C(25)H(32)O(5)·0.5C(6)H(14)·H(2)O, exists as two crystallographically independent mol-ecules, the hydr-oxy group of one being deprotonated. The pyran rings of both independent units adopt boat conformations. One of the two cyclo-hexene rings of the xanthene unit adopts an envelope conformation whereas the other is in a ha...

We present the synthesis and characterization of a family regioisomerically pure pH-sensitive rosamine fluorophores consisting xanthene fluorophore cores differently substituted phenol moieties.

The title compound, Artonol B, C(24)H(20)O(7), isolated from the stem bark of Artocarpus kemando, consists of four six-membered rings and one five-membered ring. The tricyclic xanthone ring system is almost planar [maximum deviation 0.115 (5) Å], whereas the pyran-oid ring is in a distorted boat conformation·The furan ring is almost coplanar with the fused aromatic ring, making a dihedral angle...

In order to study the structure-activity relationships of xanthene derivatives, four series of N-substituted 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthene-3,11-dicarboxamide derivatives were synthesized. The structures of all compounds were identified by ¹H-NMR, HR-MS and IR spectra, in which compounds 6a-h were further identified by 13C-NMR spectra. The in vitro antitumor activity of the synthesized compou...

The presentation of two phenols on a xanthene backbone is akin to the tyrosine dyad (Y730 and Y731) of ribonucleotide reductase. X-ray crystallography reveals that the two phenol moieties are cofacially disposed at 4.35 Å. Cyclic voltammetry reveals that phenol oxidation is modulated within the dyad, which exhibits a splitting of one-electron waves with the second oxidation of the phenol dyad o...
