Photochemical Approaches to Complex Chemotypes: Applications in Natural Product Synthesis. [PDF]
The use of photochemical transformations is a powerful strategy that allows for the formation of a high degree of molecular complexity from relatively simple building blocks in a single step. A central feature of all light-promoted transformations is the

Transcription Factors in Alkaloid Engineering [PDF]
Plants produce a large variety of low-molecular-weight and specialized secondary compounds. Among them, nitrogen-containing alkaloids are the most biologically active and are often used in the pharmaceutical industry. Although alkaloid chemistry has been

Chapter 3 Noniridoid Bisindole Alkaloids
This chapter discusses that indole is a reactive nucleus prone to dimerization when it is isolated or a part of tryptamine or tryptophan, which themselves are reactive toward many functionalities. For these reasons, bisindoles, the majority of which are of iridoid origin, are frequently isolated in nature. Besides these “dimers,” there exists a growing

Fishing for Targets of Alien Metabolites: A Novel Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR) Agonist from a Marine Pest [PDF]
Although the chemical warfare between invasive and native species has become a central problem in invasion biology, the molecular mechanisms by which bioactive metabolites from invasive pests influence local communities remain poorly characterized.

The Raputindoles: Novel Cyclopentyl Bisindole Alkaloids from Raputia simulans
A novel class of bisindole alkaloids is established by the isolation and structural determination of raputindoles A-D (1-4) from the Amazonian plant Raputia simulans Kallunki (Rutaceae). Complete spectroscopic characterization was accomplished by means of NMR spectroscopy and APCI (+) HRMS.
