Alscholarine C (1), featuring an unprecedented pyrroloindoline-containing natural product (PiNP) with a 6/5/5/5 tetracyclic carbon skeleton, and four known PiNPs (2–5), namely demethylalstoscholarinine E (2), Nb-demethylechitamine (3), winphylline A (4), and echitamine (5), were isolated from Alstonia scholaris. Compound 1 was characterized by a hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b] indole (HPI) core fused to a unique 4-heptylimidazolidine motif, forming an unparalleled 3-heptyl-2a,4a-diazapentaleno[1,6-ab]indene ring system. Their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis, quantum-chemical calculated 13C NMR data with DP4+ probability analyses, and ECD calculations and comparison. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of 1 was proposed. Compound 1 exhibited potential anti-inflammatory activity against LPS-stimulated NO production in RAW264.7 cells.

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC) publishes original and high impact research and reviews in organic chemistry. We welcome research that shows new or significantly improved protocols or methodologies in total synthesis, synthetic methodology or physical and theoretical organic chemistry as well as research that shows a significant advance in the organic chemistry or molecular design aspects of chemical biology, catalysis, supramolecular and macromolecular chemistry, theoretical chemistry, mechanism-oriented physical organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry or natural products. Articles published in the journal should report new work which makes a highly-significant impact in the field. Routine and incremental work is generally not suitable for publication in the journal. More details about key areas of our scope are below. In all cases authors should include in their article clear rationale for why their research has been carried out.
