Strychnofoline is a phenolic alkaloid isolated from leaves of Strychnos usambarensis. The crystals of the complex Strychnofoline-Ethanol are monoclinic. the crystal structure has been solvad by direct methods. The configuration determined by biogenetic arguments is 3S?4R?7S?15S?17S?20R. This is the first oxindole alkaloid found in a Strychnos species. [less ▲]

Strychnine is unstable under light in chloroformic solution and is partly transformed in pseudostrychnine, genostrychnine (Nb-oxy-strychnine) and chloromethostrychninium (a quaternary derivative). In other respects the curarizing activity of African Strychnos (e.g. Strychnos usambarensis) is not due to isostrychnine as erroneously written by TURKOVIC (J.Pharm Belg. 1976, 31, 277-286) but to quaternary alkaloids like C-dihydrotoxiferine, C-curarine, afrocurarine and C-calebassine (cf L.ANGENOT et al.

The chemical separation and identification of ten alkaloids extracted from the roots of Strychnos usambarensis are described. The elucidation of their structure by means of elementary analysis, IR, UV and mass spectrometry allows their classification into bistertiary amines, hybrid and bisquaternary ammonium derivatives. This classification is reflected in the pharmacological properties. One of the tertiary amine alkaloids (usambarensine) presents atropine-like and spasmolytic activities while the bisquaternary ammonium compounds ( dihydrotoxiferine, C-curarine, calebassine and afrocurarine) are competitive neuromuscular blocking agents.

Akagerine is a new alkaloid first isolated by one of us (LA) from roots of Strychnos usambarensis. The crystal structure was determined by direct methods from three-dimensional diffractometer data. The crystals are tetragonal. The absolute configuration was not determined. This is the first report of a seven-membered ring with an N1-C17 bond (conventional notation for indole alkaloid). The lone-pair of electrons on N4 is cis with respect to C(3)H and C(15)H.The cohesion of the structure is the result of one hydrogen bond OH...N (2.77O Angstroem) and van der Waals interactions.

We have isolated and identified three quaternary monomeric indole alkaloids from barks of Strychnos usambarensis roots. Besides Macusine B, previously found in Strychnos toxifera, two new products are described: O-methyl-macusine B and O-methyl-dihydro-macusine B. It is not easy to discuss the origin of these last products that could take formation during the extraction. The purification is very laborious because Strychnos usambarensis contains more than sixty alkaloids. [less ▲]

Usambarensine is a bisindolinic alkaloid found in the bark of Strychnos usambarensis roots. The crystal and molecular structure of usambarensine.2HBr.2H2O has been solved by direct methods thanks to a Hilger-Watts four-circle diffractometer. The crystals are monoclinic; refinement of the parameters was carried out with 2459 reflexions. The absolute configuration of the molecule, determined by X-ray anomalous scattering, confirms the 3 alpha cis configuration ( 11alpha cis, IUPAC) assigned earlier by spectral, chromatographic and biogenetic data.This configuration seems dependent on the presence of an ethylidenic chain in the corynane part of the molecule.

Strychnos innocua is frequently cited in African traditional medicine. Root bark has been chemically screened.A small amount of alkaloids was detected as well as loganic acid. The plant contains at least two alkaloids that are devoid of an indole skeleton. The authors suggest that they are monoterpenic and not very different from gentianine. However the products would not be artefacts because ammonia was not used for alkalinization before the extraction [less ▲]
