Isoprene: A Promising Coupling Partner in C-H Functionalizations
Zhang, Wei-Song,Hu, Yan-Cheng,Chen, Qing-An
, p. 1649 - 1655 (2020/07/24)
Five-carbon dimethylallyl units, such as prenyl and reverse-prenyl, are widely distributed in natural indole alkaloids and terpenoids. In conventional methodologies, these valuable motifs are often derived from substrates bearing leaving groups, but these
A NEW APPROACH TO HEMITERPENOID TRICYCLIC QUINOLONES. SYNTHESIS OF N-METHYLFLINDERSINE, KHAPLOPHOLINE AND OTHER STRUCTURALLY SIMILAR ALKALOIDS

A new and general synthesis of tricyclic quinolone alkaloids is described which, by cyclization of 3-butenyl-4-hydroxyquinolones promoted by mercury(II) ion or by formic acid, affords pyranoquinolones and pyranoquinolones, respectively, with regio- and site-selectivity better than those obtained employing known methodologies. 3-Butenyl-4-hydroxyquinolones have been reacted with mercury(II) acetate to give, after work-up, the corresponding 2-(chloromercurymethyl)pyranoquinolones, which have been reductively demercurated with sodium borohydride and then dehydrogenated by treatment with DDQ.Alternatively, from the same starting compounds the "linear" isomers are obtained by formic acid-promoted cyclization.N-Methylflindersine, khaplofoline and other structurally similar alkaloids have been obtained.
Alkaloids, limonoids and furocoumarins from three Mexican Esenbeckia species
Dreyer, David L.
, p. 941 - 944 (2007/10/11)
The chemical constituents of three Mexican Esenbeckia species have been determined. Rutaevin was the main limonoid present in the seeds of all three species, E. litoralis, E. flava and E. berlandieri. The husks, leaves, wood and bark contained a wide array of known furocoumarins and furoquinoline alkaloids. In addition, 1-hydroxy-3-methoxy-N-methylacridone was obtained from E. litoralis bark and a new natural 2-quinolone alkaloid, formulated as 3,3-diisopropyl-N-methyl-2,4-quinoldione, was obtained from E. flava wood. The structure was assigned from spectroscopic considerations and conversion to N-methylhaplofoline.
