Alkaloids of Tylophora II: Structural Studies

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences

Abstract

Structural studies on the six alkaloids isolated from Tylophora crebriflora (N. O. Asclepiadacease) are described here. Spectral data indicate that five of these alkaloids (A‐E) possess the dibenzo[f, h]‐pyrrolo[1,2b]isoquinoline skeleton known to be present in tylocrebrine. They differ in the number, nature, and distribution of the oxygen‐bearing substiuents and in the presence or absence of a benzylic‐type hydroxyl. An oxygen substitution pattern of 3, 4, 6, and 7 is suggested for Alkaloids A, B, and C and that of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 for Alkaloids D and E. Alkaloid F is shown to be a seco analog of tylocrebrine with a 1,2‐diphenyl cis stilbene skeleton. Copyright © 1970 Wiley‐Liss, Inc., A Wiley Company
