Daphmacrimines A−K, Daphniphyllum alkaloids from Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq.

Daphmacrimines A–K (1–11) were isolated from the leaves and stems of Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq. Their structures and stereochemistries were determined by extensive techniques, including HRESIMS, NMR, ECD, IR, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Daphmacrimines A–D (1–4) are unprecedented Daphniphyllum alkaloids with a 2-oxazolidinone ring. Daphmacrimine I (9) contains a nitrile group, which is relatively rare in naturally occurring alkaloids. The abilities of daphmacrimines A–D and daphmacrimines G–K to enhance lysosomal biogenesis were evaluated through LysoTracker Red staining. Daphmacrimine K (11) can induce lysosomal biogenesis and promote autophagic flux.
