Abstract

Two previously undescribed isoquinoline alkaloids, bracteatinine (1) and isogroenlandicine (2), together with four known alkaloids – coptisine (3), dehydrocorydaline (4), palmatine (5) and jatrorrhizine (6) were isolated from the aerial parts of Corydalis bracteata (Steph. Ex. Willd.) Pers. The structures of the compounds were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR data along with HRESI-MS. The isolated new compounds bracteatinine and isogroenlandicine are close structural derivatives and isomers of corgoine and groenlandicine, respectively. Bracteatinine is also notable, being a representative of the rare 2-benzylisoquinoline alkaloids. Many natural products isolated from different plants are used as adjuvants, in addition to standard chemotherapy, in treatment of different cancers. Cancer-associated thrombosis remains a common complication and leading cause of mortality for cancer patients. Because platelets play the key role in thrombotic complications, we investigated effects of the isolated alkaloids 1–6 on platelet reactivity and showed that they did not significantly affect platelet function.
