Phytochemistry of the genus Piper

TL;DR: The secondary metabolites isolated from Piper species for the period 1907 to June 1996 have been reviewed in this paper, where nearly six hundred chemical constituents belonging to different classes of bioactive compounds are listed together with their source(s) and references.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological activities of lignans and stilbenoids associated with plant-insect chemical interactions

TL;DR: The results indicate that such phenylpropanoid-derived compounds can possess ecdysteroid antagonistic activity, which could potentially influence insect development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insecticidal Neolignans from Piper decurrens

TL;DR: Three known neolignans found for the first time in a species of the Piperaceae, were isolated from Piper decurrens via insecticidal bioassay-guided fractionation, along with a small quantity of a new related compound.
Book ChapterDOI

Insect feeding deterrent activity of lignans and related phenylpropanoids with a methylenedioxyphenyl (piperonyl) structure moiety

TL;DR: Natural lignan lactones with methoxy and/or methylenedioxy substituents showed significant activity that is strong enough to affect plant ‐ insect interactions, and the most active compound was synthetic piperonylbutoxide.

Cytotoxic pyridone alkaloids from Piper aborescens

TL;DR: Bioactivity-guided fractionation of a chloroform extract of the stems of Piper aborescens has afforded three cytotoxic pyridone alkaloids, N -(3,4-dimethoxycinnamoyl)-Δ 3 -pyridin-2-one, N-(3methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxycinnamide) Δ-pyridine-1.1.

Burchellin, a neolignan from Aniba burchellii

TL;DR: The wood of Aniba burchellii Kosterm as discussed by the authors contains sitosterol, benzyl benzoate and the neolignan burchellin, for which the structure of (2S, 3S)-4-allyl-6-methoxy-3-methyl-2-piperonyl-2,3,4,7-tetrahydro-7-oxobenzofuran (XIII) is proposed.
