摘要
Mass-directed isolation of the CH2Cl2/MeOH extract of Doryphora sassafras resulted in the purification of a new benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, 1-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-6,7-methylenedioxy-2-methylisoquinolinium trifluoroacetate (1), and the known aporphine alkaloid (S)-isocorydine (2). The Structures of I and 2 were determined by 1D and 2D NMR and MS data analyses. The compounds were isolated during a drug discovery program aimed at identifying new antimalarial leads from a prefractionated natural product library. When tested against two different strains of the parasite Plasmodium falciparum (3D7 and Dd2), 1 displayed IC50 values of 3.0 and 4.4 mu M, respectively. Compound I was tested for cytotoxicity toward a human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293) and displayed no activity at 120 mu M.
