Published: November 2012

A new manzamine-related alkaloid with unprecedented δ-lactone and ε-lactam rings called acantholactone (), was isolated from the Indonesian sponge sp. The relative configuration of the two new ring systems was established through detailed analysis of NOESY correlations combined with molecular modeling studies. The absolute configuration of was determined as 12, 24, 25, 26 by comparing the computed electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra with experimental values.

Alstoschoquinolines A-D (-) representing three unprecedented scaffolds were isolated from the leaves of through direct separation by LC/MS detection. and consisted of a 5/6/5-coupled quinoline architecture containing six consecutive chiral carbons, while and possessed a bridged ring featuring 6/6/6/6 and 6/6/8/6 skeletons, respectively. They might be derived from the corynantheine-type indole alkaloid via sequential oxidation and rearrangement.

The okaramine family of compounds, a class of alkaloids with broad-spectrum insecticidal activity, has been discovered from species of and . These okaramines, characterized by their complex structures and diverse biological activities, have attracted widespread attention from biologists and chemists. To date, only a few okaramines have been synthesized, notably the highly active okaramines A and B, which feature a polycyclic skeleton, including an azocine ring and an unprecedented 2-dimethyl-3-methyl-azetidine ring.

All-carbon quaternary and tertiary stereocenters connected at the C2-position of functionalizable C3-alkylated indole nucleus are commonly occurring frameworks found in many indole alkaloids of medicinal importance. Their direct access is scarcely reported, a long-standing problem, and developing a unique yet simple method can pave the pathway to an entirely different retrosynthetic route for the total synthesis of these alkaloids. Herein, this problem is addressed by developing an unprecedented branch-selective allylation strategy employing a broad range of structurally and electronically different 3-alkenyl-indoles and allylboronic acids.

Metabolic blockade-based genome mining of the marine sediment-derived SCSIO 07745 led to the discovery of 11 novel aminoquinolinone alkaloids, oxazoquinolinones A-J (-), characterized by an oxazolidone[3,2-α]quinoline-5,8-dione scaffold, and oxazoquinolinone K (), featuring an unprecedented fused 6/6/6/5 tetracyclic core ring system. Additionally, 5 new biosynthetic intermediates or shunt products (-) and a known metabolite sannanine () were identified. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses and a comparison of electronic circular dichroism and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
