The structures and sources of many allelochemicals with anti-microbial activity have been documented (Dixon, 2001 Grayer and Harbome, 1994 Harbome, 1999). In this chapter, evidence for anti-microbial functions of allelochemicals from weed Ageratum conyzoides L. and food crop Oryza sativa L. has been reviewed. Effects of these allelochemicals on related pathogen management in the A. conyzoides intercropped citrus orchard and the paddy ecosystem were discussed. 

There are several reviews referring to manzamine alkaloids [7,31-35]. In this chapter, we will review the structure and source of manzamine alkaloids including the large-scale preparation of manzamine alkaloids for preclinical evaluation. We also discuss the detailed synthesis and bioactivities of manzamine alkaloids.

In this article, we review the chemical structures and sources of the currently known naturally occurring phthalides of plant. Recent advances related to the biological activities of the extensively investigated natural phthalides are also described. As examples, we focus on the phthalide ingredients and medical uses of three commonly used phthalide-containing TCM herbs.

Much controversy has centered around the structure and source of arborine 36, 41). The elucidation of structure (2) (Chart 1) by degradation and synthesis was described in part in a previous chapter in this series 169). Chakravarti et al. 36) proposed the benzylquinazolinone structure (2), whereas Chatterjee and Ghosh Majumdar 42) preferred formula (14) because ozonolysis or periodic acid oxidation of arborine yields benzal-dehyde. The yield of benzaldehyde obtained by these methods, or by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, is extremely low 34) whereas phenyl-acetic acid may be obtained in almost quantitative yield. The controversy was resolved by Chakravarti et al. 37) on the basis of the physical properties of arborine. Ultraviolet absorption studies and a detailed critical study of the infrared absorption spectra of arborine, dihydroarborine and model compounds of unambiguously defined structure including N-methylanthranilamide, 1,2-dimethylquinazolin-4-one, 2,3-dihydro-l,2-di-methylquinazolin-4-one, 2-ethyl-l-methylquinazolin-4-one, 2,3-dihydro-2-ethyl-l-methylquinazolin-4-one strongly supported structure (2) for arborine.
