Isolation of Martinella obovata via flash column chromatography Naomi Bryner Dr. David Singleton (advisor) Dr. Kathleen Halligan (advisor)
Plant Information • Bignoniaceae family • 120 genera, 800 species • Found in Central and South America • Neotropical liana • Versatile plant • Horticulture, food, crafts, timber, dyes, rituals, and medicine Arevalo, et al. 2011, Gentry and Cook 1984, Gentry 1992, Witherup, et al. 1995
Overview • M. Obovata and M. iquitosensis • 2 most known species • 9 species total for Martinella • M. iquitosensis known to produce martinelline and martinellic acid
Martinelline & Martinellic acid • Chemically unique • Natural pyrroloquinoline ring structures • Synthesis is sought after • Biologically unique • Natural product (not peptide) that potently antagonize bradykinin receptors (GPCRs) Pyrroloquinoline quinone Davies, et al. 2013, Lovely and Mahmud 1999, , Ma, et al. 2001Ma, et al. 2003 Powell and Batey 2002, Shirai, et al. 2008, Yee, et al. 2006, Zhang, et al. 2007
Summer 2013 • Bark removal and extraction • TLC and FCC • Four fractions • IR spectra • 1H and 13C NMR • 2D more helpful… Solvents Used Extraction: CH2Cl2/MeOH FCC: Hex/EtOAC gradient
Fall 2013 CHM (1 credit) • This proved to be more of a learning experience than productive • HPLC difficulties • Long method time for little purified product • Inconsistent results for first duplicate
Fall 2013 BIO • Solubility tests • H2O – no, EtOH(95%) – somewhat, DMSO (99.5%) – yes • Disk diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing and MIC microtiter assays • Bacteria used • Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, and Staphylococcus aureus
Fall 2013 BIO • Disk diffusion showed that only NB1-6-1, NB1-6-6, and NB1-6-7 merited further investigation • Clear results: • EtOH(10.5%) + 1 mg/mL NB1-6-7 - S. aureus • EtOH (5.25%) + .5 mg/mL NB1-6-7 - B. cereus • DMSO (24.9%) + 1.5 mg/mL NB1-6-7 E. coli • DMSO (24.9%) + 1.5 mg/mL NB1-6-7 S. aureus
Loose ends • Will run 2D NMRs overnight this week 2/3/14 • Hope to ID NB1-6-7 • Pyrroloquinoline ring in any sample? • If I had another semester • Bradykinin receptor antagonism investigation • LC-MS analysis to determine mass (no preexisting method)
