Chlebek, Jakub ; Opletal, Lubomír (advisor) ; Drašar, Pavel (referee) ; Kuča, Kamil (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Botany and Ecology Candidate: Mgr. Jakub Chlebek Supervisor: Doc. RNDr. Lubomír Opletal, CSc. Title of Doctoral Thesis: Study of biological activity of isolated alkaloids from Corydalis cava (Fumariaceae). Key words: Corydalis cava, isoquinoline alkaloids, DPPH, AChE, BuChE, BACE1, IMER. Tubers of Corydalis cava were selected on the basis of bio-guided spectrophotometric Ellman's method as a source of isoquinoline alkaloids for study of their selected biological activities. The tubers of Corydalis cava were extracted with ethanol and the mixture of summary tertiary alkaloids (fraction A) was fractionated in silica gel chromatography column using step gradient elution with hexane, chloroform and ethanol. Repeated column chromatography, preparative TLC and crystallization led to the isolation of fifteen isoquinoline alkaloids. The chemical structures of isolated compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic techniques and by comparison with literature data. Isolated alkaloids were tested on ability to inhibit AChE, serum BuChE (IC50), BACE1 and for its free-radical scavenging activity (EC50). The cholinesterase inhibitory activity was determined in vitro by modified spectrophotometric Ellman's...

Preparation of Quaternary ammonium salts of triterpenoids
Biedermann, David ; Šarek, Jan (advisor) ; Klinot, Jiří (referee) ; Drašar, Pavel (referee) ; Kasal, Alexander (referee)
) Conclusion CONCLUSIONS This doctoral thesis was focused onto the synthesis if new quaternary ammonium salts oÍ. triterpenoids Ířom lupane, oleanane and ursane family for in vilro assessment of ťollowing biological activities: anti-HIV, antimicrobial, antiinflammatory and cýotoxic. Results are summed up in Íbllowing points: 1' Author co-operated pilot project of industrial isolation of betulin (1a) from approximately 400 kg of birch bark. Futhermore, research of side products and optimisation of preparation of bromoethyl-esters triterpenic acids was concluded. 2' Precursors for preparation of quaternary ammonium esters, bromoethyl-esters 2a, 3f, 3i, l1b, I2b, 14a,15a, and chloroethyl-ester 39, were slmthesised. 3' Six series of compounds, each consisting of three quaternary salts and one tertiary amine, were synthesised from betulinic acid (1b), oleanolic acid (1c), ursolic acid (1c), oxoac id, 3e, platanic acid (11a) a dihydrobetulinic acid (12a). Experimetal procedures are suitable for bulk syntheses. other quaternary salts of triterpenoids were also prepared. 4. oxoacid 3e was derivatised to yield group of heterocyclic hydrochlorides 6a, 6b,ód' 6f and group of heterocyclic salts 6c,6e,69. 5. All new cornpound s were assesed in vitro for cýotoxic activity against T-lymfoblatic leukemia CEM in research...
