Tethered Biginelli condensation of enantioenriched hexahydropyrrolopyrimidines 8 with beta-ketoesters provides efficient asymmetric access to tricyclic guanidines 9 having a syn relationship of the angular C2a and C8a hydrogens. This reaction was employed to realize the first practical enantioselective access to this fragment of batzelladine alkaloids B (2) and E (5). The efficiency of this str...

Novel tricyclic bridged heterocyclic systems can be readily prepared from sequential 1,4- and 1,2-addition reactions of allyl and 3-substituted allylsilanes to indolizidine and quinolizidine α,β-unsaturated N-acyliminium ions. These reactions involve a novel N-assisted, transannular 1,5-hydride shift. Such a mechanism was supported by examining the reaction of a dideuterated indolizidine, α,β-u...

With the goal of developing a modular approach leading to different indoline alkaloid natural-product-like tricyclic derivatives having an unsaturated lactam (see compounds 13, 14, and 16), an aminoindoline-based bicyclic scaffold 10 was obtained from 9. The selective deprotection of the indoline NTeoc or benzylic NHAlloc in compound 10, followed by N-acryloylation and then subjection to a ring...

Reprint requests to Dr. L.M. Sabet, Health Sciences Centre, Department of Pathology, London, Canada N6A 5CI. The pathophysiological effects and clinical features of overdosage with tricyclic antidepressants have been described in detail (Moraguerra, 1977; Petit, 1977; Bilgi, 1979). However, published accounts of morphological changes in the brain are scarce and lacking in detail. We are not awa...

in this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $im$ is a class of graphs, $gin im$, the cycle $c$ in $g$ is called removable if $g-e(c)in im$. the removable cycles in eulerian graphs have been studied. we characterize eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...

Acrocyanosis is probably the most unusual side effect of tricyclic antidepressant drugs. In this paper, we report a 10-year-old boy with primary enuresis nocturna and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder who developed two episodes of acrocyanosis, the first of which was after imipramine treatment and the second after desipramine usage. We also review the possible pathogenesis of acrocyanosi...

The development of a ring-opening metathesis/ring-closing metathesis/cross metathesis (ROM-RCM-CM) cascade strategy to the synthesis of a diverse collection of bi- and tricyclic sultams is reported. In this study, functionalized sultam scaffolds derived from intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reactions undergo metathesis cascades to yield a collection tricyclic sultams. Additional appendage base...

In the present paper, we report an expedient total synthesis of triciribine, a tricyclic 7-deazapurine nucleoside and protein kinase B (AKT ) inhibitor, in 35% overall yield. Our synthesis route features a highly regioselective substitution of 1-N-Boc-2-methylhydrazine and a trifluoroacetic acid catalyzed one-pot transformation which combined the deprotection of the tert-butylcarbonyl (Boc) gro...

Of 80 consecutive admissions to a general hospital for drug overdose, 10 had taken one or other of the tricyclic antidepressants. All 10 had abnormalities of cardiac conduction as shown by prolonged Q-T(e) intervals, and eight had S-T segment and T-wave changes. Five of the 10 patients had arrhythmias and two of these died. Continuous electrocardiographic monitoring is recommended in patients w...
