Two new pyridine monoterpene alkaloids by chemical conversion of a commercial extract of harpagophytum procumbens
1999
The treatment of harpagide (1), harpagoside (2), or 8-O-p-coumaroylharpagide (3), the main iridoids of Harpagophytum procumbens and Harpagophytum zeyheri, with NH 3 and HCl led to aucubinine B(4), a pyridine monoterpene alkaloid (PMTA). A similar procedure applied to a commercial extract of H. procumbens yielded 4 and two new PMTAs named beatrine A (5) and beatrine B (6). The structures of these new PMTAs were established using ESIMS and 2D NMR. Their semisynthesis was analyzed in terms of reaction mechanisms.
