altemicidin Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Altemicidin is a monoterpene alkaloid originally isolated from S. sioyaensis with acaricidal and anticancer activities. It is acaricidal to two-spotted spider mites (T. urticae) in a greenhouse pot test at concentrations of 10 and 100 ppm. Altemicidin inhibits the growth of murine L1210 lymphocytic leukemia and IMC carcinoma cells (IC50s=0.84 and 0.82 μg/mL, respectively). It is toxic to mice with an LD50 value of 0.3 mg/kg.
