Popis: Three fatty acid esters, (E)-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-yl linoleate (1), (E)-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-yl oleate (2), and (E)-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-yl palmitate (3), originated during storage by the interaction of components in Prasaplai, were synthesized. These three artificial esters were subjected to four biological evaluations. All three compounds were active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Ra for which compounds 1 and 3 had inhibitory concentration at 200 microg mL(-1) while compound 2 inhibited at 100 microg mL(-1). When all these compounds were subjected to anti-HSV-1 test, compound 2 showed positive activity at 42.6 microg mL(-1) without any cytotoxic activity against human vero cell line while compound 3 had the cytotoxicity to vero cell at IC(50) 38 microg mL(-1). Compound 1 was inactive for this test.
