Diepoxyrollin and Diepomuricanin B: Two New Diepoxyacetogenins from Rollinia membranacea Seeds
1997
Diepoxyrollin (1) and diepomuricanin B (2), two new Annonaceous acetogenins were isolated from the cytotoxic MeOH extract of the seeds of Colombian Rollinia membranacea. Five others known acetogenins were also isolated, dieporeticanin 1, dieporeticanin 2, diepomuricanin A, rollinone, and sylvaticin. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral data. Compounds 1 and 2 belong to the rare type of diepoxyacetogenins, which are probably precursors of the mono-tetrahydrofuran acetogenins.
New method for the determination of the absolute stereochemistry in antitumoral annonaceous acetogenins
1998
Abstract The absolute configurations at the carbinol centers in several acetogenins were determined through p-bromophenylurethane derivatives and subsequent Mosher ester methodology. This method has been applied on α,α′-dihydroxylated adjacent bis-THF acetogenins with a threo/cis/threo/cis/erythro relative configuration membrarollin (1), a new acetogenin isolated from Rollinia membranacea seeds, rollimembrin (2), membranacin (3) and rolliniastatin-1 (4), and a threo/trans/threo/translerythro relative configuration motrilin (5), squamocin (6), and desacetyluvaricin (7). 1 was found to be the most potent inhibitor of the mammalian mitochondrial complex I.
Tripoxyrollin, a New Epoxy Acetogenin from the Seeds ofRollinia membranacea1
1993
Abstract A new epoxy acetogenin, tripoxyrollin (1), has been isolated from the seeds of the Colombian Annonaceae, Rollinia membranacea. Its structure was elucidated on the basis of spectral data. Biomimetic synthesis of isodesacetyluvaricin (2) from tripoxyrollin (1) suggests its key role in the biogenesis of the adjacent bis-tetrahydrofuran acetogenins.
