SYNTHESIS OF CERTAIN 1-POLY­ HYDROXYLATEDALKYL- β -CARBOLINE DERIVATIVES

Abstract


Numerous alkaloids of the £,-carboline-type with various substituents at C-1 are known to display various growth in­ hibitory activities such as: Oxopropalines, Pyridindolol, Lavendamycin, Manzamine C, and others.
A new £,-carboline alkaloid (LXXXV) was isolated together

with other known indole alkaloids (LIXa & LIXb) from the fu­ sion cell suspension culture of Rauwolfia serpentina and Rhazya stricta (Family Apocyanaceae). The new alkaloid (LXXXV) has a molecular formula of C16H16N204 and a (polyhydroxyalkyl)-£,-carboline skeleton. However, the full structure elucidation of this alkaloid is not yet explored.
The presented thesis deals with the synthesis of some derivatives of 1-(polyhydroxylatedalkyl)-!S-carbolines, basi­ cally related to compound (LXXXV), and preliminary screening
of their potential activity as antiviral and I or cytotoxic

agents. In part, it involves also structural elucidation of the new alkaloid (LXXXV) as well as structural modification of its basic skeleton by introducing methyl and benzyl residues at N-9.
Synthesis of the alkaloid (LIXa: R= COMe; R1- R5= H) was

provided by reaction of 1-cyano-!S-carboline with methylmag­

nesium bromide under the conditions of Grignard reaction.

Alkaloid (LIXb: R= COOMe; R1- R5= H) was prepared through condensation of tryptamine and glyoxylic acid followed by esterification and dehydrogenation.
