- CAS No.: 115777-94-1
- Formula:C18H25NO6
- Molecular Weight:351.39
InChIKey: ACGPKIHTJATAMX-FQPKLTCISA-N
SMILES: O=C(O[C@H](CC1)[C@]2([H])N1CC=C2CO3)[C@]4(OC4)[C@H](C)[C@@H](C)[C@@](C)(O)C3=O
Biological Activity: Merepoxine is a jacobin-like pyrrolizidine alkaloid and an epoxide. Merepoxine is formed by the transformation of melensine under alkaline conditions, involving an SN2 reaction accompanied by elimination of hydrogen chloride (i.e., a chlorohydrin-like reaction) to form this epoxide[1][2][3].
