Metabolite Identification
Common NameAspergillitine
DescriptionAspergillitine is a member of the alkaloid chemical class, characterized by its unique angular tricyclic chromone structure. This compound has garnered attention due to its complex synthesis pathways, which involve the preparation of a fluorinated isoquinoline alkaloid, specifically (18) F-aspergillitine, achieved in a 10% isolated radiochemical yield from the corresponding phenyl(aspergillitine)iodonium salt (PMID:27554850 ). The synthesis of this distinct tricyclic chromone structure has been explored in detail, revealing its intricate relationship with other alkaloids, such as TMC-120B (PMID:22531888 ). Furthermore, the original assignment of the tricyclic angular chromone structure to aspergillitine has been confirmed through additional synthetic reports (PMID:22531888 ). Aspergillitine is involved in various biochemical pathways, although specific biological significance is not the focus here; rather, its structural and synthetic attributes highlight its potential roles in further chemical and biological research.
