Abstract:Polyhalogenated N-methylpyrroles (PMPs) are halogenated natural products (HNPs) recently detected in seagrass, blue mussels, and other marine organisms. In this study, we synthesized 2,3,4,5-tetrachloro-N-methylpyrrole (Cl-MP), 2,3,4,5-tetrabrominated-N-methylpyrrole (Br-MP, aka TBMP), and mixed tetrahalogenated (Cl and Br) N-methylpyrrole congeners. Use of one- and two-dimensional H andC NMR verified the structures of isolated/enriched 3,4-dibromo-2,5-dichloro-N-methylpyrrole (3,4-Br-2,5-Cl-MP), 2,3,4-tribrom… Show more
“…637,638 A series of halogenated N-methylpyrroles were synthesised and used as standards to quantify their presence in European Atlantic, North Sea and Baltic Sea specimens of Mytilus sp. 639 Exposure to okadaic acid has been found to reduce the antioxidant and non-specic immune responses of bay scallops Argopecten irradians. 640 Feeding of a dinophysitoxin-producing microalga (Prorocentrum foraminosum) to Gray's mussel (Crenomytilus grayanus) led to accumulation of dinophysitoxin-1 in the digestive gland and gills while dinophysitoxin-3 levels were highest in the digestive gland.…”

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.
