Five new compounds, named ancistronaphtosides A and B (1 and 2), anciscochine (3), anciscochine 6-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), and 4'-methoxy-5-epi-ancistecrorine A1 (5), together with tortoside A (6) and 4-hydroxy-2-methoxyphenyl-6-O-syringoyl-β-d-glucopyranoside (7) were isolated from the methanolic
A striking feature of the metabolite pattern of the Southeast Asian liana Ancistrocladus tectorius (Ancistrocladaceae) is the predominance of 5,1'-coupled naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids. About 20 alkaloids of this coupling type have so far been discovered in this plant species. Here, we report on
Three unusual heterodimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, named ealapasamines A-C (1-3), were isolated from the leaves of the tropical plant Ancistrocladus ealaensis J. Léonard. These 'mixed', constitutionally unsymmetric dimers are the first stereochemically fully assigned cross-coupling products
The Congolese liana Ancistrocladus likoko (Ancistrocladaceae) produces naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids that are, chemotaxonomically remarkable, all based on the same coupling type, with the biaryl axis located between C-5 and C-8'. About 20 alkaloids, belonging to the subclass of 5,8'-linked
From the roots of the West African liana Ancistrocladus abbreviatus (Ancistrocladaceae), ten new naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids (7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, and 9-14), displaying three different coupling types (5,1', 5,8', and 7,8'), were isolated, among them a series of five 5,1'-linked representatives and
The first phytochemical investigation of the recently discovered East African liana Ancistrocladus tanzaniensis is described, resulting in the isolation and structural elucidation of two new naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, ancistrotanzanines A (5) and B (6), and the known compound
Five novel dimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, shuangancistrotectorines A (3 a), B (3 b), C (4), D (5 a), and E (5 b), have been isolated from the twigs of the Chinese plant Ancistrocladus tectorius. Their absolute stereostructures were determined by spectroscopic and chiroptical methods in
Four new dimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, michellamine A5 (2) and mbandakamines C-E (4-6), were isolated from the Congolese plant Ancistrocladus ealaensis, along with the known dimer mbandakamine A (3). They represent constitutionally unsymmetric dimers, each consisting of two 5,8'-coupled
Three new naphthylisoquinoline dimers, jozibrevines A-C (1a-c), were isolated from the West African shrub Ancistrocladus abbreviatus, along with the known dimer jozimine A2 (1d). The two molecular moieties of 1a-d are coupled via the sterically
Two new naphthylisoquinoline dimers, jozilebomines A (1a) and B (1b), were isolated from the roots of the Congolese plant Ancistrocladus ileboensis, along with the known dimer jozimine A2 (2). These compounds are Dioncophyllaceae-type metabolites, i.e., lacking oxygen functions at C-6 and with an
Mbandakamines A (1) and B (2), isolated from the leaves of an as yet unidentified Congolese Ancistrocladus species, are the first dimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids with an unsymmetrically coupled central biaryl axis. Their novel 6',1″-coupling type implies a hitherto unprecedented peri-peri
The National Cancer Institute is pursuing preclinical development of michellamine B (MB), a novel dimeric polyhydroxylated naphthalene-tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from Ancistrocladus abbreviatus, as an anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) agent. MB protects human lymphoid cells from
