Anti-HIV Securinega alkaloid oligomers from Flueggea virosa

TLDR
An MS guided fractionation of the alkaloidal constituents of Flueggea virosa has yielded nine new Securinega alkaloid oligomers, fluevirosinines B-J ( 1 − 9 ). The absolute structures of these oligomers were characterized on the basis of spectroscopic data and biogenetic consideration as discussed by the authors.

An Accelerated Intermolecular Rauhut–Currier Reaction Enables the Total Synthesis of (−)-Flueggenine C

TL;DR: It is found that installation of a nucleophilic functional group at the γ-position of an enone greatly accelerates the rate of the diastereoselective intermolecular RC reaction, enabling an efficient and selective formation of the dimeric intermediate which was further transformed to (-)-flueggenine C.

Tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay for the detection of HIV replication inhibitors: revisited 20 years later

TL;DR: The long-standing and intensive use of the MTT method has taught users of the limitations and the unexpected advantages of the MT-4/MTT assay, and this method can be extended to antiviral testing of compounds against other cyto-destructive viruses.

Stereoselective Total Syntheses of (−)-Flueggine A and (+)-Virosaine B†

TL;DR: The total syntheses of (-)-flueggine A and (+)-virosaine B have been accomplished in a concise and convergent manner using relay ring-closing metathesis reactions for rapid construction of the key intermediates, and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions for the formation of the natural products.
