5629-60-7 Usage
Description
Isolated from Uncaria pteropoda, this alkaloid is probably stereoisomeric withMitraphylline (q.v.). It forms colourless plates when crystallized from MeOH and
has [α]29DJ 9 - 102.5° (c 1.0, CHC13). The ultraviolet spectrum in MeOH has an
absorption maximum at 246 mp. with a shoulder at 280 mp.. A crystalline picrate,
m.p. 143-6°C; [α]D - 9.6° (c 0.5, EtOH) and a methiodide, m.p. 209-211°C
after softening at 204°C; [α]D - 149° (c 0.53, EtOH) have been prepared. A
solution of the alkaloid in pyridine forms an equilibrium mixture with 70 per
cent isopteropodine when heated.
Uses
Uncarine C is a compound extracted from Uncaria tomentosa leaves. The compounds extracted from these leaves have exhibited immunomodulating, antiinflammatory and anti-cancer activity, attributed to the presence of tetra/pentacyclic oxindole alkaloids.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5629-60-7 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,6,2 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5629-60:
(6*5)+(5*6)+(4*2)+(3*9)+(2*6)+(1*0)=107
107 % 10 = 7
So 5629-60-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Analysis of the kinetics of isomerization of spiro oxindole alkaloids

The isomerization of the spiro oxindole alkaloids mitraphylline, isomitraphylline, pteropodine, isopteropodine, speciophylline and uncarine F in water has been studied at several temperatures and the rate coefficients have been determined. The effect of pH on the rate of reaction and the equilibrium composition has been investigated. The rate coefficients in water and in organic solvents correlate satisfactorily with the Dimroth-Reichardt solvent polarity parameter. The present results support the existence of a zwitterionic intermediate stabilized by polar solvents and show that protonation of the alkaloids inhibits the isomerization. The crystal structure of pteropodine has been determined.
