  • Patent number: 8053416
    Abstract: Described herein are novel cerebroside compounds, designated as Turbostatin 1, Turbostatin 2, Turbostatin 3, and Turbostatin 4. These compounds were extracted and isolated from the marine mollusk Turbo stenogyrus, and their structures elucidated. The new compounds exhibit significant cancer cell growth inhibition activity against a variety of murine and human cancer cell lines, and as such appear will be useful in the treatment of various forms of neoplastic disease.

  • Publication number: 20100179108
    Abstract: The present invention involves use of the compounds narciclasine (2a) and 7-deoxy-narciclasine (2c), which are obtained via isolation from the medicinal plant species Narcissus (Amaryllidaceae), as precursors in a novel synthesis method in which each of these compounds are selectively hydrogenated to produce trans-dihydronarciclasine (1a) and 7-deoxy-trans-dihydronarciclasine (1c). Also described herein is a novel synthesis method for producing sodium narcistatin (11) from narciclasine (2a). Further described herein are certain novel 3,4-cyclic phosphate prodrugs, including sodium-7-deoxynarcistatin (8), sodium-7-deoxy-transdihydronarcistatin (9), and sodium transdihydronarcistatin (10).
