neolitsea/alkaloid

Application of the HPLC-SPE-NMR technique to identify the alkaloids in an EtOH extract of the leaves of Neolitsea sericea var. aurata led to the characterization of 14 alkaloids while consuming plant material equivalent to 1.1 g. Of these, seven are N-oxides, four of which are new, namely,

Three new eudesmanolide sesquiterpenes, neolitacumone A-C (1-3), and one new benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, neolitacumonine (5), along with 27 known compounds were isolated from the stem bark of Neolitsea acuminatissima. The structures of compounds 1-3 and 5 were established on the basis of spectral

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the roots of Neolitsea daibuensis afforded three new β-carboline alkaloids, daibucarbolines A-C (1-3), three new sesquiterpenoids, daibulactones A and B (4 and 5) and daibuoxide (6), and 20 known compounds. The structures of 1-6 were determined by spectroscopic

Neolitsea species, medicinal plants belonging to Lauraceae, contain rich alkaloids, steroids, sesquiterpenoids, and triterpenoids which possess antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory bioactivities. However, species differences in the immunomodulatory effects and evidence pertaining to the

Two of the four parameters in the 'rule of five', molecular weight and logP, which can be detected and predicted by mass spectrometry and compound retention on reversed-phase HPLC, were used as guidelines in natural product isolation. A new aporphine alkaloid, (6aR)-normecambroline (1), was isolated
