    Notes: Abstract Three alkaloids—two minor decahydroquinolines (DHQs) and a major quinolizidine—were detected in an extract of a Brazilian myrmicine ant (Solenopsis (Diplorhoptrum) sp. picea group). One DHQ (3) was identical to a known frog-skin alkaloid, cis-195A (cis-5-methyl-2-propyldecahydroquinoline), while the second DHQ, an isomer of 3, designated 195J, was assigned a tentative cis-2-methyl-5-propyldecahydroquinoline structure (2) based on mass and infrared spectra. The third alkaloid proved identical to the frog-skin alkaloid 195C, for which a structure had not been previously proposed. Mass and infrared spectral analysis, including chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry, indicated a 4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine structure (1) for 195C. The four possible diastereomers were synthesized and the (6Z,10E)-4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine diastereomer (1b) was identical to the natural alkaloid. Skin extracts of a population of a Madagascan mantelline frog contained, among other alkaloids, minor amounts of the same alkaloid triad 1–3 with 1 again predominating. The common occurrence of alkaloids 1–3 in both ant and frog supports the hypothesis that ants are a likely dietary source for sequestered frog-skin alkaloids and brings to six, the alkaloid classes common to ant and frog.

    Notes: -Batzellines A and B (1a, b) and isobatzellines A and B (2a, b) are 1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline-containing marine alkaloids characterized by the presence of a methylthio substituent at C-2 of the tricyclic system. We describe here the total synthesis of these natural compounds following the synthetic strategy that we have used previously for the synthesis of damirones A and B, batzelline C, isobatzelline C, discorhabdin C, and makaluvamines A, B, C, and D. The introduction of the methylthio group by electrophilic substitution of a pyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline, appropriately substituted and in a suitable oxidation state, is the key step in the success of these syntheses.

    Notes: The addition of iodine (or related species) to β-acyl-N-alkyl-1,4-dihydropyridines 1, which possess an N-substituent with an appropriate nucleophile moiety, leads to the corresponding 3-iododihydropyridinium ions, which undergo an internal nucleophilic attack to give, regio- and stereoselectively, the iodobi(poly)heterocyclic ring systems 2a-f in good yields. Reactivity studies on the iodoindoloquinolizidines 2e,f lead to the pentacyclic cyclopropane systems 4a,b, azides 5 and 6, norderivative 9 and, by a base-induced elimination, dihydropyridine 10, a precursor of the zwitterionic alkaloids flavopereirine and 6,7-dihydroflavopereirine.

    Notes: -The hydroxymethyl-substituted indolizidines 6 and 7, representative members of a ring-B-expanded alexine-australine subclass, are readily accessible by starting with furan-based silyloxydiene 12 and hydroxymethyl hemiaminal 11, through a synthesis sequence involving a scantily exploited vinylogous version of the Mannich reaction. The key iminium electrophilic acceptor 11 is, in turn, available through a vinylogous intermolecular Mukaiyama aldolization process between pyrrole-based silyloxydiene 8 and (S)-glyceraldehyde 9.

    Notes: The alkaloids of two coccinellid beetles, Calvia14-guttata and C.10-guttata have been studied. The major alkaloid of these two species is the new piperidinic cis-lactone 1a, for which the name calvine has been coined. The corresponding trans-lactone 1b (2-epicalvine) is also present as a minor constituent (±10%) in both species. We report here the structure determination and the total synthesis of these compounds. Kept in methanolic solution, these lactones undergo epimerisation as well as opening of the lactone ring leading to a complex mixture of nine main components.

    Notes: Abstract  Light-microscopic and electron-microscopic studies of the tropical marine sponge Haliclona sp. (Order: Haplosclerida; Family: Haliclonidae) from Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, have revealed that this sponge is characterized by the presence of dinoflagellates and by nematocysts. The dinoflagellates are 7–10 μm in size, intracellular, and contain a pyrenoid with a single stalk, whereas the single chloroplast is branched, curved, and lacks grana. Mitochondria are present, and the nucleus is oval and has distinct chromosomal structure. The dinoflagellates are morphologically similar to Symbiodinium microadriaticum, the common intracellular symbiont of corals, although more detailed biochemical and molecular studies are required to provide a precise taxonomic assignment. The major sponge cell types found in Haliclona sp. are spongocytes, choanocytes, and archaeocytes; groups of dinoflagellates are enclosed within large vacuoles in the archaeocytes. The occurrence of dinoflagellates in marine sponges has previously been thought to be restricted to a small group of sponges including the excavating hadromerid sponges; the dinoflagellates in these sponges are usually referred to as symbionts. The role of the dinoflagellates present in Haliclona sp. as a genuine symbiotic partner requires experimental investigation. The sponge grows on coral substrates, from which it may acquire the nematocysts, and shows features, such as mucus production, which are typical of some excavating sponges. The cytotoxic alkaloids, haliclonacyclamines A and B, associated with Haliclona sp. are shown by Percoll density gradient fractionation to be localized within the sponge cells rather than the dinoflagellates. The ability to synthesize bioactive compounds such as the haliclonacyclamines may help Haliclona sp. to preserve its remarkable ecological niche.

    Notes: Abstract Several alkaloids are toxic to insects and vertebrates and, in addition, can inhibit the growth of bacteria and plant seedlings. In vitro assays were established to elucidate their modes of action and to understand their allelochemical properties. Basic molecular targets studied, present in all cells, included DNA intercalation, protein biosynthesis, and membrane stability. The degree of DNA intercalation was positively correlated with inhibition of DNA polymerase I, reverse transcriptase, and translation at the molecular level and with toxicity against insects and vertebrates at an organismic level. Inhibition of protein biosynthesis was positively correlated with animal toxicity. Molecular targets studied, present only in animals, included neuroreceptors (alpha1, alpha2, serotonin, muscarinic, and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors) and enzymes related to acetylcholine (acetylcholine esterase and choline acetyltransferase). The degree of binding of alkaloids to adrenergic, serotonin, and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors was positively correlated in G-protein-coupled receptors. Receptor binding and toxicity was correlated in insects. The biochemical properties of alkaloids are discussed. It is postulated that their structures were shaped in a process termed “evolutionary molecular modeling” to interact with a single and, more often, with several molecular targets at the same time. Many alkaloids are compounds with a broad activity spectrum that apparently have evolved as “multipurpose” defense compounds. The evolution of allelochemicals affecting more than one target could be a strategy to counteract adaptations by specialists and to help fight off different groups of enemies.

    Notes: A method is described for the synthesis of pumiliotoxin C (1a) and related stereoisomeric compounds 1c-1f. Starting from (+)- or (-)-3-methylcyclohexanone (6a,b), the oxo esters 7a and 7b were prepared. Condensation with (+)- or (-)-3-aminohexanol (8a,b) gave the stereoisomeric 3-aminoacrylates 9a, 9b and 9c. The hydroxy group of the amino-acrylates was transformed into bromide using the tosylate method. Cyclization of the bromides led to unsaturated quinoline ring systems. Finally, decarboxylation and catalytic hydrogenation gave the different cis- and trans-fused stereoisomeric alkaloids of the pumiliotoxin C type. The structures were verified by X-ray analysis.

    Notes: Epibatidine (1) is a recently discovered trace alkaloid found in the skin of a Latin-American poisonous frog. Its remarkably high analgetic activity is accompanied by high toxicity. Therefore, in order to tune its biological activity, a convergent and efficient synthetic pathway was sought to synthesize epibatidine derivatives with different (het)aryl substituents. The hydro(het)arylation of the key intermediate 7-azabicycloheptene (10) represents such an approach. The synthesis of 10 by a Diels-Alder reaction of an N-activated pyrrole (7) with ethynyl p-tolyl sulfone (6) and subsequent steps has been optimized. The crucial last step, the reductive cleavage of the vinyl sulfone 9, has been replaced by a high-yield fluoride-induced degradation of the β-silylated sulfone 12 to give 10. A number of structurally different racemic epibatidine analogs (16b-e) can be prepared by palladium-catalyzed hydro(het)arylation of 10 with iodo(het)arenes 15b-e in good yields.

Chelate enolate Claisen rearrangement of N-protected chiral amino acid esters gives rise to γ,δ-unsaturated amino acids, which can be converted to this type of alkaloids. The potential glycosidase inhibitor 5-epi-isofagomine (5) was synthesized by this approach in a highly stereoselective fashion.

    Notes: Summary Addition of various concentrations (0.5–20 mM) of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) to tumor lines ofCatharanthus roseus cultivatedin vitro and requiring corn starch as carbon source, produced remarkable effects on secondary metabolite production. An increase of 505% total alkaloids per culture (cells plus liquid medium), 1587% total phenolics (liquid medium), 612% total furanocoumarins (liquid medium) and 1476% total anthocyanins (liquid medium) was detected. 1 mM ASA in combination with other elicitors, such as homogenates ofAspergillus fumigatus or trans-cinnamic acid, did not further increase the metabolite content substantially. The results suggest that ASA could act as a new biotic elicitor of metabolite production inC. roseus cell suspension culture.

    Notes: Optically pure dihydrocolchicine-8,12-endoperoxide 2 is used as the starting material for the synthesis of some bioactive allocolchicinoids. Depending on the reaction conditions and reagents employed, different modifications of the C ring of colchicine (1) are achieved. Triphenylphosphane deoxygenation of 2 leads to the well known N-acetylcolchinol O-methyl ether (NCME, 6, 40% yield from 1). Treatment of the endoperoxide 2 with CH3OH/CH2Cl2/silica gel provides the plant alkaloid androbiphenyline (11) in a yield of 60% from 1. Triethylamine-catalysed transformation of 2 yields (-)-colchicine-8,12-dione (12) (17% yield), together with a mixture of interconverting tetracyclic hemiketals 8a and 8b. For the formation of the allo colchicinoids 6 and 11 plausible reaction pathways are suggested. In contrast to what is found in the literature, the assignment of the absolute configuration of natural (-)-colchicine (1), and the allo-congeners 6 and 11, should be (M,7S) or (aR,7S) instead of (aS,7S).

    Notes: Agroclavine (1) was oxidized, by haloperoxidase from Streptomyces aureofaciens, to 2,3-dihydro-6,8-dimethyl-3β-acetoxy-8-ergolen-2-one (2) in the presence of sodium acetate and bromine ions. Acetate was incorporated into the above product during oxidation. In a propionate buffer, incorporation of propionate into the product was observed, yielding 2,3-dihydro-6,8-dimethyl-3β-propionoxy-8-ergolen-2-one (4). The biotransformation proceeded faster in the propionate buffer, affording also the higher oxidation product (4aS),(10bS)-7-amino-3,4,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-2,4-dimethyl-6-oxobenzo[f]quinoline (3).

The lengths of the incipient bonds in the transition structures vary from 2.0 to 2.4 Å, but the average value of the lengths of these two bonds in the same structure is much more constant: 2.18 ± 0.02 Å. The effects of the methoxycarbonyl group and of the 6-methoxy group on the lengths of the incipient bonds are in agreement with the relative magnitudes of the frontier orbital coefficients. Comparison of the energetic data with experimental results shows that the prediction of the stereo- and regioselectivities from the Gibbs energy of activation differences is good as far as it concerns the main products. The absence of minor products and the formation of the remarkably large amount of 8β-ethoxycarbonyl-6β,14β-ethenomorphinan from 5β-methyl-6-demethoxythebaine does not follow from the calculations.

    Notes: The alkylidene hydantoin 8 was synthesized as an analogue of the marine natural product oroidin (1) by employing a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. Treatment of 8 with bromine in acetic acid induced a biomimetic spiro-cyclization forming the ACD ring system of dibromophakellin (2) in one step. rac-Midpacamide (10) was obtained from the same precursor through a chemoselective, ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation leaving the brominated pyrrole moiety intact.

    Notes: The piperidine alkaloid (+)-8-ethylnorlobelo-I is assigned the revised 2S,8,S absolute configuration as depicted in 7. LiAl(O-tBu)3H reduction of the ketone rac-5 proceeded with a high stereoselectivity to give, after hydrolysis of the carbamate function, the syn amino alcohol rac-6. Inversion of the C-8 configuration of ent-6 yielded (-)-8-ethylnorlobelol-I ent-7. A short nitrone-alkene-based synthesis of rac-7 has been developed.

    Notes: Hydrogenation of nepenthone (3a) leads to a mixture of dihydronepenthone (3c) and the secondary alcohol (20S)-4b. The enantiomeric secondary alcohol (20S)-4b is prepared from the 7α-formyl-6,14-ethenomorphinan derivative 3b by reaction with phenylmagnesium bromide to afford a mixture of the diastereoisomeric alcohols 4a. Hydrogenation of 4a leads to (20S)-4b and (20R)-4b, which are separated by fractional crystallization. The conformations of (20S)-4b and (20R)-4b are determined by NOE difference experiments.

    Notes: Abstract Plants represent an unlimited source of natural products. Many of the recently detected phytochemicals exhibit remarkable bioactivities, ranging from anticancer activity, phosphodiesterase inhibition to cytotoxicity against HIV-infected cells. Cultivated plant cells produce at their unorganized, dedifferentiated stage secondary metabolites, but in very different amounts in so far as new compounds are concerned. In fact, more than 140 novel natural products are presently known from plant cell cultures, which also include new metabolites formed by biotransformation. The biotransformation capacity of suspended cells is described and recent high yielding transformations, like the formation of arbutin by hydroquinone-transformation withRauwolfia cells are discussed. As an example of alkaloid production by cell suspensions, the pattern of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids of the Indian medicinal plantRauwolfia serpentina Benth. is described and the so far 30 identified compounds are divided into eight groups which are biosynthetically closely related. Some of the key biosynthetic reactions leading to theRauwolfia alkaloids are discussed and an overview of the enzymes involved in the formation of the alkaloid ajmaline and proteins catalyzing side reactions of the ajmaline pathway are given.

    Notes: The (3R,5S,9R) and (3R,5R,9R) stereoisomers of 3-butyl-5-(1-oxopropyl)indolizidine (9) were identified as major constituents of the poison gland secretion of the African ant, Myrmicaria eumenoides. Racemates of the four diastereomers of 9 were synthesized via the corresponding ethyl 5-(5-butylpyrrolidin-2-yl)pentanoates (6). Enantiomerically pure samples of the (3R)-stereoisomers of 9 were obtained by starting from (2R)-2,3-O-isopropylideneglyceric aldehyde (21) and 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehyde (20). In addition, the enantiomeric separation by chiral gas chromatography and unambiguous structure assignment of the target compounds are described.

    Notes: The reaction of the key compound 14 with methyl 4-formyl-butanoate (9) or with 5-benzoyloxypentanal (13) gave the D-seco-aspidospermane derivatives 17 and 18, respectively. Compound 17 was indirectly and 18 was directly converted to (±)-20-deethylvincadifformine (7) and (±)-20-deethyl-20-epivincadifformine (8). Epimerization occurred in both cases. The thioxo compound 23 was used for the synthesis of (±)-20-deethyltabersonine (28) and (±)-20-deethyl-3-oxotabersonine (27). Oxidative ring transformation of the (±)-20-deethylvincadifformine (7) gave (±)-16-deethylapovincamine (29).

    Notes: The reaction of 2 with 2-methoxyethylamine in the presence of ZnCl2 afforded imine 3, which was reduced with NaBH4 to amine 4 without isolation. After deprotection of the carbonyl function by treatment with benzeneseleninic anhydride, ketone 5 was converted to compound 6 with 2-oxobutyric acid and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The isodasycarpidone derivative 7, formed by aldol reaction of 6, represents a tetracyclic substructure of strychnos-type alkaloids.

    Notes: Provided they contain quaternary nitrogen, simple phenolic bases can undergo oxidative condensation under conditions similar to those of biogenesis to form alkaloids of the isoquinoline series with good yields. By means of such oxidative condensations, more than sixty alkaloids of various structural types have become more easily obtainable. Of the numerous possible condensations of the intermediate mesomeric radicals only those which lead to naturally occurring alkaloids give good yields and few by-products. The results suggest that oxidative condensations of quaternary bases are also involved in the biosynthesis of alkaloids in the plant cell.
