A unique prenylated bicarbazole alkaloid, clausanisumine (), and two biogenetically related known monomer carbazole alkaloids, mukonal () and 3-methylcarbazole (), were isolated from the fruits of . Clausanisumine () was an uncommon prenylated bicarbazole alkaloid, possessing an unprecedented carbon skeleton, which was composed of a simple carbazole alkaloid and a prenylated carbazole alkaloid. The chemical structure of was established by a combination of comprehensive spectral methods. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of was also proposed. Additionally, the potential anti-HIV activities of all isolates - were evaluated. Compound exhibited remarkable anti-HIV-1 reverse transcriptase effects showing an EC value of 18.58 nM. The discovery of the prenylated bicarbazole alkaloid from with notable anti-HIV activity would be meaningful to discovering and developing new anti-HIV drugs.
从 果实中分离得到了一个独特的prenylated bicarbazole 生物碱,clausanisumine (),和两个生物起源相关的已知单体 carbazole 生物碱,mukonal ()和 3-methylcarbazole ()。Clausanisumine ()是一种不常见的prenylated bicarbazole 生物碱,具有前所未有的碳骨架,由一个简单的 carbazole 生物碱和一个 prenylated carbazole 生物碱组成。通过综合光谱方法确定了 的化学结构。还提出了 的可能生物合成途径。此外,对所有分离物 - 的潜在抗 HIV 活性进行了评估。化合物 表现出显著的抗 HIV-1 逆转录酶作用,EC 值为 18.58 nM。从 中发现具有显著抗 HIV 活性的 prenylated bicarbazole 生物碱,对于发现和开发新型抗 HIV 药物具有重要意义。
