Extraction and Identification of Clavine and Lysergic Acid Alkaloids from Morning Glories

چکیده
WITTERS, WELDON L. Extraction and identification of clavine and lysergic acid alkaloids from morning glories. Ohio J. Sci. 75(4): 198, 1975. Seeds from three varieties of Ipomoea grown in Ohio were examined for clavine and lysergic acid alkaloids. Three systems of extraction of ergoline alkaloids were compared with the ammonium hydroxide-methanol-chloroform method proving superior to the others. Four chromatographic systems were compared for ability to resolve and identify ergoline alkaloids. Of the four systems, a thinlayer system with ethyl acetate-ethanoldimethyl-formamide gave the best resolution of ergoline alkaloids. Ipomoea violacea L. var. Pearly Gates had significantly more total alkaloids and more individual ergoline alkaloids.

The clavine alkaloids produced by the fungi of the Aspergillaceae and Arthrodermatacea families differ from the ergot alkaloids produced by Claviceps and Neotyphodium. The clavine alkaloids lack the extensive peptide chain modifications that occur in lysergic acid derived ergot alkaloids. Both clavine and ergot alkaloids arise from the condensation of tryptophan and dimethylallylpyrophosphate b...

Research on livestock toxicoses caused by Acremonium (endophyte)-infected grasses strongly implicate the ergopeptine alkaloids with A. coenophialum-infected fescue and paxilline and the lolitrem alkaloids with A. lolii-infected perennial ryegrass as the causative agents. Isolation, identification, and detection of these toxins involves extraction with appropriate solvents, clean-up procedures, ...

Tall fescue toxicosis and other maladies in livestock result from the ingestion of vasoconstrictive ergot alkaloids produced by fungal endophytes associated symbiotically with the grass. In order to facilitate future analyses of grass extracts considered responsible for outbreak of related livestock diseases, we examined the electrospray ionization mass spectra of specific ergot alkaloids under...
متن کاملProgress and Prospects of Ergot Alkaloid Research
Ergot alkaloids, produced by the plant parasitic fungi Claviceps purpurea are important pharmaceuticals. The chemistry, biosynthesis, bioconversions, physiological controls, and biochemistry have been extensively reviewed by earlier authors. We present here the research done on the organic synthesis of the ergot alkaloids during the past two decades. Our aim is to apply this knowledge to the sy...
