Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Pseudo-Natural Products Inspired by Aryloctahydroindole Alkaloids. [PDF]
Mesembrine alkaloid pseudo‐natural products were synthesized employing a microwave‐assisted Diels–Alder reaction as a key step. Morphological profiling by cell painting revealed compound‐topology‐dependent mitochondrial fragmentation or inhibition of respiration.
