(+/-)-Gelliusines A and B, two diastereomeric brominated tris-indole alkaloids from a deep water New Caledonian marine sponge (Gellius or Orina sp.) [PDF]
Two new diastereomeric brominated tris-indole alkaloids occurring as enantiomeric pairs, (±)-gelliusine A (I) and its isomer (±)-gelliusine B, have been isolated from a deep water New Caledonian sponge (Gellius or Orina sp.), whose crude ext.

Analysis of alkaloids (indole alkaloids, isoquinoline alkaloids, tropane alkaloids)
Alkaloids are a large cluster of molecules found in Mother Nature all over the world. They are all secondary compounds and collection of miscellaneous elements and biomolecules, derived from amino acids or from transamination. This diverse chemical group is categorized, based on the amino acids that deliver their nitrogen atom and part of their ...

Indole Synthesis via Allenyl Ester; Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Geissoschizoline
Methyl indole‐2‐acetate is a key structural motif in plant‐derived indole alkaloids. In this study, a mild and efficient protocol is presented for its preparation using readily available aniline derivatives, which are synthesized from malonic esters. The

Indole Alkaloids of Ailanthus altissima
Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, Syn. A. glandulosa Desf. (Simaroubaceae), is a large tree indigenous to China. It is known as the “Tree of Heaven” and has been the subject of several chemical studies. The presence of quassinoid-type bitter principles (1-6), flavonols (7,8), and 2,6-dimethoxy-p-benzoquinone (9,10) has been reported in earlier ...

Plant-symbiotic fungi as chemical engineers: multi-genome analysis of the Clavicipitaceae reveals dynamics of alkaloid Loci [PDF]
The fungal family Clavicipitaceae includes plant symbionts and parasites that produce several psychoactive and bioprotective alkaloids. The family includes grass symbionts in the epichloae clade (Epichloë and Neotyphodium species), which are ...
