  • ] and neatly introduces the required chloride substituent at the 5-position. While isolated pyridines are a vital component in numerous drugs the related quinoline/quinolone scaffolds are becoming increasingly common. One such example is nalidixic acid (1.101, in fact a naphthyridone, Figure 2
  • ). Nalidixic acid is a prototype quinolone antibiotic that has been used extensively as an effective treatment against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. In general, quinolone antibiotics act by interfering with the enzymes DNA-gyrase and/or topoisomerase of bacteria [55]. Moxifloxacin (1.102

  • class of compounds is characterized by a quinolone or quinoline nucleus substituted in position 3 or 4 by a farnesyl chain. In addition, aurachins can further be functionalized by biosynthetic oxidative processes [2][3][4][5]. Since then, additional members of this natural product family were discovered
  • at an IC50 around 20 ng/mL (i.e., aurachins B, C and E, whereas aurachin D was 100- to 200-fold less active) [6]. This antimalarial activity was comparable to that of endochin (5) [13][14] and 2-methyl-4(1H)-quinolone analogues as determined in the course of important structure–activity optimization

Finally, the interaction between H-8 and C-7a in conjunction with the carbonyl signal revealed in the 13C NMR spectrum at δ 180.1, suggested a benzocyclohexenone scaffold. Combining the isoquinoline and the benzocyclohexenone skeletons led to the 7H-dibenzo[de,g]quinolone-7-one

The above data were compared to those reported for fissiceine [18] leading to identification of 2 as 1-hydroxy-10-methoxy-7H-dibenzo[de,g]quinolone-7-one, which was assigned the trivial name zanthoxoaporphine A.

Graphical Abstract
  • Scheme 7 is a possible explanation of this situation but fails to account for reality as no detectable oxygen is observed during the reaction between peroxydisulfate and either 2-quinolone or 2-quinolone-4-carboxylic acid. [16] An alternative explanation, not strictly catalytic, is shown in Scheme 8
