Microbial transformation of (−)-Huperzine A

Tetrahedron Letters, 2010
Five products were yielded from the transformation of (−)-Huperzine A (1) by Streptomyces griseus CACC 200300. Their structures were determined as 16-hydroxyl huperzine A (2), 14α-hydroxyl huperzine A (3), huperzine A 8α,15α-epoxide (4), 13N-formyl huperzine A (5), and 13N-acetyl huperzine A (6) on the basis of their chemical and physical data.

An update on huperzine A as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease

Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2008
Huperzine A is a natural cholinesterase inhibitor derived from the Chinese herb Huperzia serrata. There is evidence that huperzine A may compare favorably in symptomatic efficacy to cholinesterase inhibitors in use. In addition, huperzine A has antioxidant and neuroprotective properties that suggest that it may be useful as a disease-modifying ...

Divergent Total Synthesis of the Lycopodium Alkaloids Huperzine A, Huperzine B, and Huperzine U

The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
Huperzine A, huperzine B, and huperzine U are congeners isolated from the Chinese herb Huperzia serrata (= Lycopodium serratum ) in minuscule amounts. The most efficient total synthesis of huperzine A, the first asymmetric total syntheses of huperzine B, and the first total synthesis of huperzine U have been achieved efficiently in overall yields of 17%

Huperzine A for Alzheimer's disease

Internal Medicine News, 2006
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become a major public health problem around the world due to its increasing prevalence, long duration, caregiver burden, and high financial cost of care. The degeneration of acetylcholine-containing neurons in the basal forebrain has been implicated in the symptoms of AD.

Total Synthesis of (−)-Huperzine A

Organic Letters, 2009
The total synthesis of huperzine Q was accomplished. The synthesis features the construction of the cis-hydrindane skeleton via a Diels-Alder reaction and a ring contraction reaction of an epoxyketone.

Synthesis of a hybrid analog of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors huperzine A and huperzine B

Tetrahedron Letters, 2001
Abstract The synthesis of a new hybrid analog of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors huperzine A and B is reported. An intramolecular reductive dicarbonyl coupling was used as a key reaction for constructing the tetracyclic ring system.
