Three types of new Euphorbia diterpene pseudo-alkaloids possessing 5/6/7/3 (1), 5/6/6/4 (2-5), and 5/7/7/4 (6-7) fused ring skeletons were obtained through an unexpected BF·EtO/CHCN-mediated structural conversion and amination of lathyrane diterpene (Euphorbia factor L), in which the solution acetonitrile had been introduced into the Euphorbia diterpene as a nitrogen source and tandem amination/oxirane-opening (cyclopropane-opening)/oxa-Michael addition reaction was involved in the conversion. The structures of new Euphorbia diterpene pseudo-alkaloids were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic data and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The basic skeletons of Euphorbia diterpene pseudo-alkaloids 1 and 2-5 could fall into the structural types of euphoractine B and euphoractine A diterpenes, respectively, suggesting the possible biogenetic pathway relationship between lathyrane diterpene with euphoractines A and B types diterpenes. Pseudo-alkaloids 1-7 did not show any potential cytotoxicity against several tumor cell lines.
三种具有 5/6/7/3(1)、5/6/6/4(2-5) 和 5/7/7/4(6-7) 融合环骨架的新型大戟二萜伪生物碱通过出乎意料的 BF·EtO/CHCN 介导的结构转化和育亨宾二萜(Euphorbia factor L)的胺化反应获得,其中乙腈溶液被引入到 Euphorbia 二萜中作为氮源,并涉及到串联的胺化/环氧化物开环(环丙烷开环)/氧杂-Michael 加成反应。新的大戟二萜伪生物碱的结构通过光谱数据和单晶 X 射线衍射分析的组合来阐明。Euphorbia diterpene pseudo-alkaloids 1 和 2-5 的基本骨架分别属于 euphoractine B 和 euphoractine A 二萜类化合物的结构类型,表明拉坦烷二萜与 euphoractines A 和 B 型二萜之间可能存在生物合成途径关系。伪生物碱 1-7 对几种肿瘤细胞系没有显示出任何潜在的细胞毒性。
