rac-2,3-Dibromopropionamide
(2013)
The racemic title compound, C3H5Br2NO, was crystallized from methanol. In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked through N–H···O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the c-axis direction. These chains are linked through N–H···O hydrogen bonds, forming an undulating two-dimensional network lying parallel to the bc plane. There are also short Br···Br contacts present [3.514 (3) Å].
Ergotaminine
(2012)
The title compound {systematic name: (6aR,9S)-N-[(2R,5S,10aS,10bS)-5-benzyl-10b-hydroxy-2-methyl-3,6-dioxooctahydro-8H-oxazolo[3,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c]pyrazin-2-yl]-7-methyl-4,6,6a,7,8,9-hexahydroindolo[4,3-fg]quinoline-9-carboxamide}, C33H35N5O5, was formed by an epimerization reaction of ergotamine. The non-aromatic ring (ring C of the ergoline skeleton) directly fused to the aromatic rings is nearly planar [maximum deviation = 0.317 (4) Å] and shows an envelope conformation, whereas ring D, involved in an intramolecular N–H···N hydrogen bond exhibits a slightly distorted chair conformation. The structure displays chains running approximately parallel to the diagonal of bc plane that are formed through N–H···O hydrogen bonds.
The title compound, also known as cis-zearalenone (cis-ZEN), C18H22O5, has already been reported elsewhere [Griffin et al. (1981). ACA Ser. 29, 35], but no atomic coordinates are publicly available. The molecule is of interest with respect to its toxicity. In the crystal, intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds stabilize the molecular conformation, while intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form infinite chains along the [110] and [1¯10] directions. The absolute configuration has been assigned by reference to an unchanging chiral centre in the synthetic procedure.
Ergometrinine
(2010)
The absolute configuration of ergometrinine, C19H23N3O2 {systematic name: (6aR,9S)-N-[(S)-1-hydroxypropan-2-yl]-7-methyl-4,6,6a,7,8,9-hexahydroindolo[4,3-fg]quinoline-9-carboxamide}, was established based on epimerization reaction of ergometrine, which was followed by preparative HPLC. The non-aromatic ring (ring C of the ergoline skeleton) directly fused to the aromatic rings is nearly planar [maximum deviation = 0.271 (3) Å] and shows an envelope conformation, whereas ring D, involved in an intramolecular N-HN hydrogen bond, exibits a slightly distorted chair conformation. The structure displays undulating layers in the ac plane formed by O-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C18H26O5, which is known as α-zearalanol, contains two molecules having the same conformation, with a r.m.s. deviation of less than 0.03 Å for all non-H atoms. In each independent molecule, an intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bond stabilizes the molecular conformation. In the crystal, O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, forming infinite chains along [110] and [1¯10].
Lysergol monohydrate
(2012)
In the title compound [systematic name: (7-methyl-4,6,6a,7,8,9-hexahydroindolo[4,3,2-fg]quinoline-9-yl)methanol monohydrate], C16H18N2O·H2O, the non-aromatic ring (ring C of the ergoline skeleton) directly fused to the aromatic rings is nearly planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.659 (3) Å, and shows an envelope conformation. In the crystal, hydrogen bonds between the lysergol and water molecules contribute to the formation of layers parallel to (10-2).
The fungus Claviceps purpurea grows on grasses
and cereal grains and produces six predominant ergot
alkaloids. These toxic substances undergo different transformation
reactions during storage and cereal processing. One
of these reactions is the addition of water to a double bond in
the ergoline skeleton. Since light is required for this process,
the substances formed were named lumi-ergot alkaloids.
From these, a new asymmetric carbon and consequently two
epimers with different polarities are formed. For investigations
of lumi-ergot alkaloids, ergometrine was used exemplarily
as it represents one of the six ergot alkaloids
predominantly formed by Claviceps purpurea. The main
reaction product, the less polar compound of the two lumiergometrine
epimers, was separated by HPLC and unambiguously
identified as 10-(S)-lumi-ergometrine using X-ray
structural analysis. A HPLC-MS/MS method was developed
for the detection of this substance in sclerotia extracts. Using
this method, the existence of both epimeric forms of lumiergometrine
could be proved in the sclerotia. This is the first
time that the existence of a lumi-transformation product of
ergot alkaloids was proved in naturally grown samples.
