In this note we construct an anti-symplectic involution on the non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold which is constructed by Thurston and show that the quotient of the Thurston's 4-manifold is not symplectic. Also we construct a non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold using the Gomph's symplectic sum method and an anti-symplectic involution on the non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold.

In this note we show that there is an anti-symplectic involution $\sigma\;:\;X\;\to\;X$ on a simply-connected, closed, non-Kahler and symplectic 4-manifold X with a disjoint union of Riemann surfaces ${\amalg}^n_{i=1}{\Sigma}_i,\;n\;{\ge}\;2$ as a fixed point set. Also we show that its quotient X/$\sigma$ is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2{\sharp}r\mathbb{CP}^2$ but not diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2{\sharp}r\mathbb{CP}^2,\;r\;=\;b_2^-(X/{\sigma})$.
