General description

Tropane (8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]-octane) is a bridged bicyclic N-containing compound. The 8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]-octane has a tropane ring system, which is an important substructure in a number of natural products and synthetic compounds of biological and medicinal importance. Production of tropane alkaloid in callus and root cultures of seven Hyoscyamus species has been studied. Tropane derivatives are reported to undergo rapid N-methyl inversion.

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) agonists have been used to treat glaucoma due to their intraocular pressure-lowering effects. Recently, it has been reported that retinal mAChRs activation can also stimulate neuroprotective pathways. In our study, we evaluated the potential neuroprotective effect

Thin layer chromatographic methods for quantitative determination of nightshade-specific tropane (l-hyoscyamine, scopolamine) and steroidal alkaloids (α-solanine, α-chaconine) in goji berries (L. barbarum L., Solanaceae) were developed. The analysis of tropane derivatives included separation on silica gel-coated HPTLC plates using mobile

Mononuclear non-heme Fe(II)- and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases comprise a large family of enzymes that utilize an Fe(IV)-oxo intermediate to initiate diverse oxidative transformations with important biological roles. Here, four of the major types of Fe(II)/2OG-dependent reactions are detailed: hydroxylation, halogenation
