Vobasine is a naturally occurring monoterpene indole alkaloid found in several species in the genus Tabernaemontana including Tabernaemontana divaricata.^[1]

History

Vobasine was first reported by Renner in 1959 after its isolation from Voacanga africana.^[2] The two structurally related compounds, dregamine and tabernaemontanine, where its alkene (=CHCH₃) sidechain was reduced to ethyl groups in two configurations, had their relationship confirmed in the 1970s.^[3]^[4]^[5] Vobasine has been found in many plants of the dogbane (Apocynaceae) family including Tabernaemontana dichotoma.^[6]^[7]

Synthesis

Biosynthesis

As with other Indole alkaloids, the biosynthesis of vobasine starts from the amino acid tryptophan. This is converted into strictosidine before further elaboration.^[8]

Chemical synthesis

The synthesis of alkaloids with the same carbon skeleton as vobasine began in the 1960s^[9] and has continued, with some work providing enantiospecific approaches to closely related compounds.^[10]

Natural occurrence

Vobasine is found commonly in the genera Tabernaemontana and Voacanga, including the species Ervatamia hirta,^[11] Tabernaemontana elegans,^[12] Tabernaemontana divaricata^[13]^[14] and Voacanga africana.^[2]

Biochemistry

Plant metabolites have been of interest for their possible biological activity and alkaloids in particular are major subjects for ethnobotanical research.^[15]^[16] Vobasine has been studied, for example as a potential anti-cancer agent^[17] and for its hypotensive activity.^[18] However, the alkaloid itself has not been developed as a drug.

Toxicity

Very high dose of vobasine at around 300 mg/kg may cause death through CNS and respiratory depression.^[19]
