Revised NMR data for 9-O-demethylgalanthine: an alkaloid from Zephyranthes robusta (Amaryllidaceae) and its biological activity.
2014
: Ongoing studies of Zephyranthes robusta resulted in the isolation of the lycorine-type alkaloid previously called carinatine and 10-O-demethylgalanthine. The NMR data given previously for this compound were revised and completed by two-dimensional 1H-1H and 1H-13C chemical shift correlation experiments. The name of the isolated compound was corrected to 9-O-demethylgalanthine in accordance with the currently used system of numbering of lycorine-type alkaloids. 9-O-Demethylgalanthine and galanthine, a previously isolated alkaloid from Z robusta, were inactive in acetylcholinesterase/butyrylcholinesterase assays (IC50 > 500 microM), but showed important prolyl oligopeptidase inhibition activity.
