HIV Inhibitory Natural Products. 26. Quinoline Alkaloids from <i>Euodia roxburghiana</i>

Abstract

Bioassay-directed fractionation of the CH2Cl2-MeOH extract of Euodia roxburghiana resulted in the isolation of two known quinoline alkaloids, buchapine (1) and 2, and three new furoquinoline alkaloids, roxiamines A, B, and C (3-5). Compounds 1 and 2 protected CEM-SS cells from the cytopathic effects of HIV-1 in vitro (EC50 0.94 and 1.64 microM, respectively), but 3-5 were inactive against HIV-1.
