Cytotoxic indole alkaloids from Melodinus khasianus and Melodinus tenuicaudatus.[Pubmed: 29772302]


Four new indole alkaloids, melodinusines A-D (1, 2, 6, and 7), along with 26 known indole alkaloids, were isolated from Melodinus tenuicaudatus and Melodinus khasianus (Melodinus genus). Among them, 1 and 2 are aspidospermine-aspidospermine-type bisindole alkaloids while 7 is a novel melodinus-type alkaloid. Their structures were established on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic data analysis and the structure of 7 was further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Their cytotoxic activities against five human cancer cell lines, HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, and SW480 were also evaluated.

Melokhanines A-J, Bioactive Monoterpenoid Indole Alkaloids with Diverse Skeletons from Melodinus khasianus.[Pubmed: 27584856]


The new melokhanines A-J (1-10) and 22 known (11-32) alkaloids were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Melodinus khasianus. The new compounds and their absolute configurations were elucidated by extensive analysis of spectroscopic, X-ray diffraction, and computational data. Melokhanine A (1), composed of a hydroxyindolinone linked to an octahydrofuro[2,3-b]pyridine moiety, is an unprecedented monoterpenoid indole alkaloid. Melokhanines B-H (2-8) possess a new 6/5/5/6/6 pentacyclic indole alkaloid skeleton. Alkaloids 1-16, 25-27, 31, and 32 showed the best antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC range 2-22 μM). Among the seven dermatophytes tested, compound 1 showed significant inhibitory activity against Microsporum canis, M. ferrugineum, and Trichophyton ajelloi (MIC range 38-150 μM), i.e., half the efficacy of the positive control, griseofulvin.
