Facile syntheses of 7,9-dimethoxypyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-6-ones

The activated dimethoxypyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-6-one ring system was synthesized via two approaches, starting from an indole and quinolin-4-one, respectively. Subsequent demethylation led to both monohydroxy- and dihydroxypyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-6-ones.     

From building block to natural products: a short synthesis and complete NMR spectroscopic characterization of (±)-anatabine and (±)-anabasine

A short and straightforward synthesis of the racemic tobacco alkaloids anatabine and anabasine in five and six steps, respectively, from 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde utilizing Barbier-type Zn-mediated allylation and ring-closing olefin metathesis, as the key steps, is reported. Additionally, a complete NMR spectroscopic analysis of the final products is carried out and full assignment of the NMR spectra of anatabine and anabasine with accurate coupling constants is accomplished and reported here for the first time.     

Alkaloids from the Roots of Saccopetalum prolificum

In recent years, an increased interest in the phytochemistry of the Annonaceae has beensparked by the isolation of the antileukemic Annonaceous acetogenin'. Saccopela/umprolificllm (Chun el How) Tsiang (Allnonaceae) is an evergreen tree distributed inHainan Province, P. R. China. The ethanolic extract of the plant exhibited cell growthinhibitory activity (20 ig/ml) against LIZ10 lymphocytic leukemia. A new alkaloid,prolifine (l), was isolated from the roots of S. proldicum, in addition t…     

Asymmetric total synthesis of the indole alkaloid cyclopiazonic acid and first structure-activity data

The indole alkaloid α-cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) is one of the few known inhibitors of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA) besides the terpenoids thapsigargin and artemisinin. We report here the first asymmetric total synthesis of cyclopiazonic acid by a modification of the Knight synthesis, currently the most efficient route to CPA. First structure-activity data of CPA derivatives and stereoisomers are presented and will be discussed in connection with the published crystal structures of CPA-SERCA complexes.     

Novel copper(II) heterochelate: synthesis,structural features and fluorescence studies

Fluorescence properties of four based derivatives [Aⁿ] (where n = 1–4) and their Cu(II) heterochelates of the type [Cu(Aⁿ)(CQ)(OH)]^?xH₂O {where A¹ = 3‐(2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐4H‐furo[3,2‐c]chromen‐4‐one, A² = 8‐methyl‐3‐(2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐4H‐furo[3,2‐c]chromen‐4‐one, A³ = 6‐methyl‐3‐(2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐4H‐furo[3,2‐c]chromen‐4‐one, A⁴ = 8‐chloro‐3‐(2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐4H‐furo[3,2‐c]chromen‐4‐one and x = 3, 2, 4, 1} were studied at room temperature. The fluorescence spectra of heterochelates show red shift, which may be due to the chelation by the ligands to the metal ion. It enhances ligand ability to accept electrons and decreases the electron transition energy. The kinetic parameters such as order of reaction (n), energy of activation (E_a), entropy (ΔS^#), pre‐exponential factor (A), enthalpy (ΔH^#) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG^#) have been reported. The antimicrobial activity of Clioquinol and Cu(II) heterochelates have been determined and described. All the heterochelates showed a more effective antimicrobial activity than the free ligand.

CO_2 Adducts of the Amino and Imino Groups Studied by ~1HNMR and ~(13)CNMR

When isolating 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-D-arabinitol using Dowex 1(2 (OH- form) or CM-Sephadex C-25 (NH4+ form), we found another compound always accompanied with it. It was apparent that the two compounds had similar structures from their 1HNMR and 13CNMR in D2O (Fig. 1). At first, we guessed the two compounds were isomerides. But when acid was added into the solution of the two compounds, the signals for the minor compound disappeared.Figure 1 13CNMR of 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-D-arabin…     

Organocatalyzed enantioselective synthesis of 6-amino-5-cyanodihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles

The first enantioselective synthesis of biologically active 6-amino-5-cyanodihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles has been achieved through a cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed tandem Michael addition and Thorpe-Ziegler type reaction between 2-pyrazolin-5-ones and benzylidenemalononitriles. The reaction may also be carried out in a three-component or a four-component fashion via the in situ formation of these two components from simple and readily available starting materials. The desired products were obtained in excellent yields with mediocre to excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee).
