The 5-Endo-trig Cyclization of D-Glucose Derived γ-Alkenylamines with Mercury (II) Salts: Synthesis of 1-Deoxycastanospermine and its 8a-epi-Analogueâ€

open access: yesMolecules, 2005
The intramolecular aminomercuration of γ-alkenylamines 1a, 1b and 4 was shown to afford the 5-endo-trig cyclized product exclusively in good yield. The utility of pyrrolidine derivatives thus obtained from D-glucose derived γ-alkenylamines 1a and ...

Plants to Polyelectrolytes: Theophylline Polymers and their Microsphere Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesMacromol. Rapid Commun. 2017, 38 (8), 1600748, 2017
To extend fossil oil supplies, sustainable feed stocks for the production of useful reagents and polymers should be harnessed. In this regard, chemicals derived from plants are excellent candidates. While the vast majority of plant sources used for polymer science only contain CxHyOz, alkaloids such as caffeine, nicotine, and theophylline possess ...

Structure-Based Virtual Screening of Novel Natural Alkaloid Derivatives as Potential Binders of h-telo and c-myc DNA G-Quadruplex Conformations

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
Several ligands can bind to the non-canonical G-quadruplex DNA structures thereby stabilizing them. These molecules can act as effective anticancer agents by stabilizing the telomeric regions of DNA or by regulating oncogene expression.
