Description and Uses
Tomita and his co-workers have obtained this bisisoquinoline alkaloid from the embryo of the seeds of Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. The base has [α]29D + 49.3° (Me2CO) and - 43.3° (CHC13 ). The hydrochloride tetrahydrate forms colourless crystals, m.p. l85-6°C (dry); the perchlorate monohydrate has m.p. 200-3°C (dry); [α]22D - 70° (Me2CO) and the styphnate of the O,O-dimethyl ether, also crystalline, has m.p. l33-5°C; [α]27D - 81.5° (Me2CO). Three methoxyl, two hydroxyl and two methylimino groups are present.
(+)-Isoliensinine is an alkaloid which displays activation of AMP-activated kinase and regulation of PPARγ receptors.
