A new method to tetrahydro-β-carbolines(βCs) from tryptamine is described and the aromatization of THβCs to βCs by manganese dioxide is reported for the first time in this type of compounds.
Nine indole alkaloids and one aromatic amine were isolated from Evodia rutaecarpa Benth. Their structures were identified as evodiamine(1),rutaecarpine(2),formyldihydrorutaecarpine(3),goshuyuamide I(4),evodiamide(5)...Nine indole alkaloids and one aromatic amine were isolated from Evodia rutaecarpa Benth. Their structures were identified as evodiamine(1),rutaecarpine(2),formyldihydrorutaecarpine(3),goshuyuamide I(4),evodiamide(5),hydroxyevodiamine(6),β carboline(7),1,2,3,4 tetrahydro 1 oxo β carboline(8),dehydroevodiamine(9)and N methylanthranylamide(10).Compound 8 was a new natural product. Compound 7 was for the first time isolated from Evodia.展开更多

For evaluation of values of descriptor, molecular modeling and geometry optimization of all the compounds were carried out with CAChe Pro software by opting semiempirical PM3 method using MOPAC 2002. For prediction of activity multiple linear regression analysis (MLR) was performed. MLR analysis has been made by Project Leader Software associated with CAChe by using the above descriptors as independent variables and biological activity as dependent variables. We were performed leave-one-out methods and the result reflected a direct relationship between biological activity and connectivity index of zero order, while indirect relationship with connectivity index of second order and thus connectivity index is a reliable descriptor to predict the biological activity of <em>β</em>-carboline and its various derivatives.展开更多
