The semisynthesis of the Stemona alkaloids (3'R)-stemofolenol (1), (3'S)-stemofolenol (2), methylstemofoline (3), and (3'S)-hydroxystemofoline (5) and the unnatural analogues (11E)-methylstemofoline (15) and 3'R-hydroxystemofoline (11) has been achieved starting from (11Z)-1',2'-didehydrostemofoline (4). This synthesis allowed, for the first time, access to diastereomerically enriched samples of 1 and 2 and the assignment of their absolute configurations at C-3'. These compounds were obtained in sufficient quantities to allow for their biological testing. In a quantitative assay as AChE inhibitors, (11Z)-1',2'-didehydrostemofoline (4) and (3'S)-hydroxystemofoline (5) were found to be the most active.
从(11Z)-1',2'-二脱氢百部碱(4)出发,实现了百部生物碱(3'R)-百部叶醇(1)、(3'S)-百部叶醇(2)、甲基百部碱(3)和(3'S)-羟基百部碱(5)以及非天然类似物(11E)-甲基百部碱(15)和3'R-羟基百部碱(11)的半合成。该合成首次实现了获得非对映体富集的1和2样品,并确定了它们在C-3'处的绝对构型。获得了足够量的这些化合物以进行生物学测试。在作为乙酰胆碱酯酶抑制剂的定量测定中,发现(11Z)-1',2'-二脱氢百部碱(4)和(3'S)-羟基百部碱(5)活性最高。
