1987
Abstract Partial syntheses of the sesquiterpene lactones artapshin ( 1 ) and 8α-hydroxy-11β, 13-dihydrobalchanin ( 2 ) from artemisin ( 3 ) are described.
NonclassicalPschorr andSandmeyer Reactions in Pyrazole Series
2005
The diazonium salt derived from 4-amino-N,1,3-trimethyl-N-(3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamide (14) was reacted with a mixture of CuSO4 and NaCl, with ascorbic acid as an initiator to afford the planar derivative 4,6-dihydro-1,4,6,8-tetramethyl-3-phenyldipyrazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-d]pyridin-5(3H)-one (16) and its unexpected isomer 4,6-dihydro-3,4,6,8-tetramethyl-1-phenyldipyrazolo[4,3-b:4′,3′-d]pyridin-5(1H)-one (17), as well as the epimers (3S,4S)- (or (3S,4R)-) and (3S,4R)- (or (3S,4S)-) 4-chloro-2,4-dihydro-1′,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-2-phenylspiro[pyrazole-3,4′(1′H)-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrazol]-6′(5′H)-one (18a and b, respectively). Epimers 18a and b were converted under basic c…
Synthesis and evaluation of tritium labelled 10-methylgalanthamine iodide: a novel compound to examine the mechanism of interaction of galanthamine d…
2003
Summary A new promising galanthamine derivative, 10-[ 3 H]methylgalanthamine iodide, was synthesized for binding studies to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors expressed in Torpedo electric ray electroplaques. Galanthamine was reacted with [ 3 H]methyl iodide to yield 10-[ 3 H]methylgalanthamine iodide with a radiochemical yield of >70% and a specific activity of 32 Ci/mmol after purification via solid phase extraction. To test the ligand properties of the radioligand, calcium imaging and electrophysiology of the non-radioactive analogue were performed to obtain an EC50 of 270 nM, a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and the induced cell current.

Asymmetrically substituted calix[4]arenes; A two-dimensional 1H NMR study of a tetraester derivative in the cone-conformation
1991
Abstract Several new chiral calix[4]arenes with three or four different substituents in the p-position have been prepared by fragment condensation. Standard derivatization procedures always led to the formation of mixtures of various conformational isomers from which the derivative in the cone-conformation could be isolated only by preparative HPLC. For a tetraester derivative it was shown by two-dimensional 1H NMR spectroscopy, that due to the different substituents the cone-conformation is strongly distorted. The sodium complex of this tetraester, however, assumes a regular cone-conformation again.
Regioselective synthesis of calixcrowns derived from p-tert-butylcalix[5]arene
1993
Abstract Alkylation of p-tert-butylcalix[5]arene with oligoethylene glycol-ditosylates in the presence of CsF affords the 1,3-bridged calix[5]crowns 1a–c in 51 to 72% yield. In the case of hexaethylene glycol the isomeric 1,2-bridged calix[5]crown-7 2c was obtained additionally. The calixcrowns were further modified by alkylation of the remaining hydroxyl groups.
Synthesis of (+)-Isoalantolactone and (+)-Isoalloalantolactone from (−)-Santonin
1992
Abstract This paper reports on the chemical conversion of (−)-santonin into (+)-isoalantolactone and (+)-isoalloalantolactone involving functionality transfer from C 6 to C 8 , refunctionalization of the ring A and the formation of the α-methylene-8 β,12-olide moiety.
Studies on the biosynthesis of paraherquamide. Construction of the amino acid framework
2001
Abstract It has been previously established in this laboratory that the β-methyl-β-hydroxyproline moiety of the potent anthelmintic agent paraherquamide A, is biosynthetically derived from l -isoleucine. The downstream events from l -Ile to paraherquamide A have now been investigated. The synthesis of [1- 13 C]-labeled l -β-methylproline is described by means of a Hoffman–Loeffler–Freytag reaction sequence from [1- 13 C]- l -Ile. This amino acid is shown to be a direct biosynthetic precursor to paraherquamide A by feeding and incorporation experiments in growing cultures of Penicillium fellutanum . Three tryptophan-containing dipeptides of l -β-methylproline have been constructed: [ 13 C 2 …
Stereoselective Synthesis of β-1-O-Acyl Derivatives of Carbohydrates: An Application of the Cesium Effect.
1992
Abstract The stereoselective formation of anomerically pure 1-O-acyl derivatives of protected carbohydrates is achieved by reaction of the α-glycosyl halogenoses with cesium caboxylates.
Presenegenin Glycosides from Securidaca welwitschii
2010
) Centre de Recherche Phytochimique, Universite´ de Lie`ge, Institut de Chimie-B6, Sart Tilman,B-4000-Lie`ge IThe five new presenegenin glycosides 1–5 were isolated from Securidaca welwitschii, together withone known sucrose diester. Compounds 1–4 were obtained as pairs of inseparable (E)/(Z)-isomers of a3,4-dimethoxycinnamoyl derivative, i.e., 1/2 and 3/4. Their structures were elucidated mainly by 2D-NMR techniques and mass spectrometry as 3-O-(b-d-glucopyranosyl)presenegenin 28-{O-b-d-xylopyr-anosyl-(1!4)-O-a-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1!2)-O-[b-d-glucopyranosyl-(1!3)]-4-O-[(E)-3,4-dimeth-oxycinnamoyl]-b-d-fucopyranosyl} ester (1) and its (Z)-isomer 2, 3-O-(b-d-glucopyranosyl)presenege-nin 28-{O…
On the use of multi-parameter free energy relationships: the rearrangement of (Z)-arylhydrazones of 5-amino-3-benzoyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole into (2-aryl-5…
2010
Abstract By using a multi-parameter approach (a combination of Hammett/Ingold-Yukawa-Tsuno/Fujita-Nishioka free energy relationships) the mononuclear rearrangements of heterocycles (MRH) rates for five new ortho-substituted and ten new di-, tri-, or tetra-substituted (Z)-arylhydrazones of 5-amino-3-benzoyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole into the relevant (2-aryl-5-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ureas (in dioxane/water and in a large range of pS+ values) have been related to the electronic and proximity effects exerted by the present substituents, also considering previous results on some mono meta- and para-substituted (Z)-arylhydrazones. In every case, excellent correlation coefficients have been calculat…
