1. Nicotine as a Catalyst for Chlorination Promoted by Hypochlorous Acid: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
There is robust evidence of the hypochlorous acid (HClO)-mediated damage in biomolecules, and nicotine boosts the chlorination potency of HClO. We present experimental and theoretical evidence of the mechanism by which nicotine catalyzes the chlorination of pyranine. The rate constants for chlorination of pyranine by HClO were measured in the presence (5.3 �

3. Leishmanicidal and Antimicrobial Activities of 4-Quinolone Alkaloids from Stems of the Medicinal Plant Waltheria indica (Malvaceae) and Their Chemotaxonomic Significance
A chemical investigation of the stem of Waltheria indica (Malvaceae) yielded twelve 4-quinolone alkaloids, which were primarily waltheriones. These were waltherione A (1), waltherione B (2), waltherione C (3), waltherione G (4), waltherione H (5), waltherione J (6), waltherione L (7), waltherione P (8), chamaedrone (9), 8-deoxy-antidesmone (10), antidesmone

4. ASARONE-DERIVED PHENYLPROPANOIDS AND ISOQUINOLINE-DERIVED ALKALOIDS FROM THE BARK OF Duguetia pycnastera (Annonaceae) AND THEIR CYTOTOXICITIES
The phytochemical investigation of the hexane and methanol extracts from the bark of Duguetia pycnastera Sandwith (Annonaceae) afforded seven known compounds, two asarone-derived phenylpropanoids and five isoquinoline-derived alkaloids. The asarones, γ-asarone (1-allyl-2,4,5-trimethoxybenzene) and 2,4,5-trimethoxy-styrene were isolated of the hexane extract

5. Dereplication of Aporphine Alkaloids by UHPLC-HR-ESI-MS/MS and NMR from Duguetia lanceolata St. -Hil (Annonaceae) and Antiparasitic Activity Evaluation
Although the genus Duguetia is well known for producing alkaloids as chemical constituents, there are no reports of alkaloids identified in the species D. lanceolata. Thus, aiming to identify the chemical composition of this species, the dereplication of alkaloidic phase was performed by use of ultra-high performance liquid chromatography high resolution ele

6. A NEW SECO-LIMONOID FROM THE INFLORESCENCES OF Dictyoloma vandellianum
Phytochemical investigation of the inflorescences of Dictyoloma vandellianum A. Juss. (Rutaceae) has led to the isolation of a new A-seco-limonoid, named dictyolomol (1), along with a known quinolone alkaloid, casimiroine (2), previously isolated from the same species. The structures were established by spectroscopic analysis such as one- and two-dimensional

7. 3-Aminofurostane Alkaloids from Solanum paniculatum (“Jurubeba Verdadeira”) Roots
The roots of Solanum paniculatum (Solanaceae) have extensively been used in folk medicine to treat liver infections and as a diuretic. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS) were used for the profiling and structural characterization of alkaloids from the roots of S. paniculatum. Six

8. Integrative Approach Based on Leaf Spray Mass Spectrometry, HPLC-DAD-MS/MS, and NMR for Comprehensive Characterization of Isoquinoline-Derived Alkaloids in Leaves of Onychopetalum amazonicum R. E. Fr.
Onychopetalum is an Amazonian botanical genus close-related with Bocageopsis and Unonopsis, whose species are used in traditional medicine. Although these genera are widely investigated from the phytochemical viewpoint, the knowledge about Onychopetalum remains almost unexplored. In order to perform a comprehensive characterization of isoquinoline-derived al

9. SBSE(EG-Silicone)-UFLC-MS/MS and HPLC-Flu Analysis of Norharman in Passiflora edulis Rinds
Previous studies on Passiflora edulis (sour passion fruit) rinds reported some biological activities and there is a growing interest on rinds flour as a possible functional food, but its alkaloid composition was not detailed investigated. This work reports on for the first time in the literature the identification of norharman in P. edulis rinds, by using st

10. Isolation of erythrinan alkaloids from the leaves and flowers of Erythrina speciosa
Abstract In this paper, we describe the extraction of three alkaloids from the leaves and flowers of Erythrina speciosa, a plant documented in the literature to possess a range of potential medicinal applications. Two alkaloids were isolated from both leaves and flowers, with erythrartine being isolated from both plant parts. In agreement with the literature

11. GC–MS and LC–MS/MS workflows for the identification and quantitation of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in plant extracts, a case study: Echium plantagineum
Abstract Workflows based on gas and liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry for the identification of toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids present in plants were developed and applied to Echium plantagineum L., Boraginaceae, extracts. GC–MS based determinations need reduction and derivatization steps prior to MS analysis, which is performed using a Ful

12. Sustainable production of bioactive alkaloids in Psychotria L. of southern Brazil: propagation and elicitation strategies
ABSTRACT Psychotria is the largest genus in Rubiaceae. South American species of the genus are promising sources of natural products, mostly due to bioactive monoterpene indole alkaloids they accumulate. These alkaloids can have analgesic, antimutagenic, and antioxidant activities in different experimental models, among other pharmacological properties of in
