Crude extracts of Ancistrocladus korupensis contain a complex mixture of naphthyltetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids, including the human immunodeficiency virus-inhibitory dimeric alkaloids michellamines A and B and the antimalarial monomeric korupensamines A-D. The efficient separation of
New monomeric (korupensamine E, 6) and dimeric (michellamines D-F, 7-9) naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids have been isolated from exracts of the tropical liana Ancistrocladus korupensis. Structures were determined by spectroanalytical methods, and stereochemistry was defined through NOE correlations,
Three new naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, ancistrolikokines A-C (1-3), have been isolated and structurally assigned from Ancistrocladus likoko, as well as the known compound korupensamine A (4). Their 5,8'-coupling hints at a close biogenetic relationship of A. likoko to other Central African
Four new naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, ancistrocongolines A-D (4-7) were isolated from Ancistrocladus congolensis, along with the known compound korupensamine A (8). Structural elucidation was achieved by chemical, spectroscopic, and chiroptical methods. Their biological activities against the
Peroxidase active preparations from three Ancistrocladus species and from Triphyophyllum peltatum have been partially purified. They catalyze the oxidative dimerization of korupensamines A and B to michellamines A and C, respectively, as well as the mixed coupling to michellamines A, B, and C. All
