A facile and efficient method for the synthesis of novel 2-substituted 4-tosyl-4,5-dihydrooxazolo[5,4-c]isoquinolines from 4-diazoisoquinolin-3-ones and nitriles is reported. The reaction proceeded through a TfOH-promoted formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition and the products could be conveniently converted
Chelidonium majus L. is one of the most important medicinal plants of the family Papaveraceae. Its pharmacological effects have been primarily attributed to the presence of a number of alkaloids. In the present study, a sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method
Many traditional medicinal herbs from Burkina Faso are used to treat arterial hypertension (HTA). Among them, Anogeissus leiocarpus (A. Leiocarpus) which is well known and widely used in Burkina traditional medicine. Herein we assess the effects of dichloromethane fraction from A. leiocarpus stem
A series of platinum(II) complexes bearing tridentate cyclometalated C^N^N (C^N^N=6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridine and π-extended R-C^N^N=3-[6'-(naphthalen-2''-yl)pyridin-2'-yl]isoquinoline) ligands with fluorene units have been synthesised and their photophysical properties have been studied. The fluorene
A novel class of luminescent dialkynylgold(III) complexes containing various phenylpyridine and phenylisoquinoline-type bidentate ligands has been successfully synthesized and characterized. The structures of some of them have also been determined by X-ray crystallography. Electrochemical studies
The complex [Rh(O(2)Cisoq)(H)(SnPh(3))(PPh(3))(2)] (O(2)Cisoq = isoquinoline-1-carboxylate), characterized by x-ray crystallography, was used as a precursor to three-center bonded complexes [Rh(O(2)Cisoq)(eta(2)-HSnPh(3))(PPh(3))(4-Rpy)] (R = carbomethoxy, acyl, bromo, aldehyde, hydrogen, methoxy,
Porphyrins with fused isoquinoline and quinoline units have been prepared by the "3 + 1" methodology. 5-Nitroisoquinoline and 6-nitroquinoline condensed with ethyl isocyanoacetate in the presence of a phosphazene base to give isoquino- and quinopyrroles, respectively. Ester saponification and
There are three types of opiate alkaloids. First, the poppy alkaloids: morphine, codeine, thebaine, noscapine and papaverine; then, the semi-synthetic and synthetic derivatives used in therapy as antitussives and analgesics, such as pholcodine, ethylmorphine and dextromethorphan; at last narcotic
Photoinduced-electron-transfer (PET)-based chemosensing is a very elegant way of reporting the presence of a guest species in solution. This method was successfully applied for the detection of different ionic species, such as cations, anions, and protons. Herein, we report on the application of the
A multicomponent pharmaceutical salt formed by the isoquinoline alkaloid berberine (5,6-dihydro-9,10-dimethoxybenzo[g]-1,3-benzodioxolo[5,6-a]quinolizinium, BBR) and the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac {2-[2-(2,6-dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetic acid, DIC} was discovered. Five solvates
Octahedral transition metal centers such as Fe(II), Co(II), and Co(III) have been used as templates in the construction of [3]pseudorotaxanes and [3]rotaxanes from various acyclic and macrocyclic fragments. The species obtained consist of a ring threaded by two string-like compounds. Such systems
BACKGROUND
The Annonaceae family is known as a promising abundant source of secondary metabolites, especially annonaceous acetogenins, terpenoids and isoquinoline-derived alkaloids. Although widely investigated from the phytochemical viewpoint, this family still presents some largely unexplored
Phytochemical investigation of the dichloromethane extract of the dried aerial parts of Corydalis rupestris (Papaveraceae) resulted in the identification of four new isoquinoline alkaloids rupestrines A-D and one known isoquinoline alkaloid, namely, stylopine. The structures of these compounds were
Glaucium flavum (G. flavum) is a plant from the Papaveraceae family native to Algeria where it is used in local traditional medicine to treat warts. G. flavum root crude alkaloid extract inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation and induced G2/M phase cycle arrest and apoptosis without affecting
G-quadruplex DNA structure is considered to be a very attractive target for antitumor drug design due to its unique role in maintaining telomerase activities. Therefore, discovering ligands with high stability of G-quadruplex structure is of great interest. In this paper, pH-zone refining counter
