Isolation, Structural Elucidation, and Total Synthesis of Epiisocitreoviridinol

ISOLATION AND STRUCTURAL ELUCIDATION OF THE FIRST KNOWN C-HOMOPROTOBERBERINE

A novel C-homoprotoberberine alkaloid, Hediamine (2), has been isolated from the roots of Berberis actinucantha (Berberidaceae). Conclusive proof for the structure of hediamine was obtained by its comparison with the isomeric lactam (4), by chemical transformation, and by means of spectroscopic techniques (UV, IR, MS, NMR).

Fermentation, Isolation, Structural Elucidation and Biological Activities

A fermentation broth of an unidentified fungus (N983-46) was found to produce DNAgyrase inhibitors, CJ-12,371 (1) and CJ-12,372 (2). Following isolation by solvent extraction and silica gel and ODS(reverse phase) chromatographies, the structures were determined to be novel spiro-ketal compounds with S-connguration at position C-l. CJ-12,371 and CJ-12,372 inhibit both DNA supercoiling and relaxa...

Isolation, structure elucidation and total synthesis of a cytotoxic dienone from Echinacea pallida.

The isolation and structure characterization of a dienone from the roots of Echinacea pallida, namely (8Z,11Z)-pentadeca-8,11-dien-2-one, are described here. To assess the configuration of this secondary metabolite, the stereoselective total synthesis of the two isomeric forms, (8Z,11Z)- and (8Z,11E)-pentadeca-8,11-dien-2-one, was undertaken and the structure elucidation of the natural compound...
