From the aerial parts of Consolida oliveriana (DC) Schröd. a new norditerpenoid alkaloid consolidine (2) has been isolated, in addition to the known alkaloids pubescenine (1), gigactonine, and delsoline and the diterpenoid alkaloid ajaconine (4). The structure of alkaloid 2 was established on the basis of its physical and spectroscopic data including detailed NMR studies. A detailed NMR study on ajaconine (4) resulted in the revision of 11 13C chemical shift assignments.
Eight new N-oxides [1-8] of the norditerpenoid alkaloids aconitine, ajacine, delphinine, delphisine, deltaline, heteratisine, lappaconitine, and N-deacetyllappaconitine have been prepared with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of their spectroscopic data (1H, 13C, DEPT, COSY, HETCOR, and selective INEPT nmr experiments). The complete nmr chemical shift assignments for all eight N-oxides are reported. Table 2 shows the differences between the 13C-nmr shifts of the N-oxides compared with those of the parent alkaloids.
Three new hetisane-type diterpenoid alkaloids, davisinol (6), 18-benzoyldavisinol (7), and Davisin (9) have been isolated from Delphinium davisii Munz. and their structures established by detailed spectroscopic studies. Accurate 1H- and 13C-NMR assignments have been made for kobusine (8), a related hetisane-type alkaloid, and karakoline (5), a norditerpenoid alkaloid. The known norditerpenoid alkaloids 14-acetylperegrine (4), 6-deacetylperegrine (3), and karakoline (5) and the diterpenoid alkaloids hetisine and hetisinone were also isolated.
From the aerial parts of Consolida orientalis collected in Turkey, a new diterpenoid alkaloid designated as consorientaline has been isolated along with the known norditerpenoid alkaloids delsoline, delcosine, gigactonine, and takaosamine. The structure of consorientaline (1) was established by spectroscopic studies and chemical correlation with dihydroajaconine (2).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
