Alkaloids and Heterocyclic Compounds. Alkaloids: Alkaloids are a group of naturally occurring cyclic chemical compounds that mostly contain nitrogen atom in the heterocyclic, and originate from amino acids Figure 1. This group also includes some related compounds with neutral, and even weakly acidic properties. In addition to carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, alkaloids may also contain oxygen, & sulfur. Alkaloids are produced by a large variety of organisms including bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals, also used as Pharmacological drugs due to its pharmacological activities Table 1 show the Pharmacological activities of some Alkaloids. Table 1: - Pharmacological activities of some Alkaloids have a wide range of pharmacological activities Pharmacological drugs Antimalarial Quinine: This medication is used alone or with other medication to treat malaria caused by mosquito bites in countries where malaria is common. Malaria parasites can enter the body through these mosquito bites, and then live in body tissues such as red blood cells or the Liver. This medication is used to kill the malaria parasites living inside red blood cells. Anticancer Omacetaxine: A plant alkaloid with antitumor properties originally identified nearly 40 years ago, has a unique mechanism of action by preventing the initial elongation step of protein synthesis. It has been used widely in China for the treatment of leukemia. 6

Heterocyclic Compound: Heterocyclic compounds are A cyclic organic compounds with the ring containing carbon, and other element oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur are the most common heteroatom elements Figure 1. Heterocyclic aromatic compounds contain in their molecules at least one heteroatom, and the ring contains at least one carbon atom. Figure-1: Heterocyclic compound Caffeine the ring containing carbon, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. All atoms other than carbon are considered as heteroatoms. Heterocyclic compounds may be of natural origin or synthetically available.

The importance of Heterocyclic compounds in life: Heterocyclic compounds occur widely in nature, and in a variety of non-naturally occurring compounds Figure 3. A large number of heterocyclic compounds are essential for life. Various compounds are Heterocyclic compounds such as: Alkaloids. Hemoglobin and chlorophyl structures. Antibiotics. Amino acids. Hormones. DNA and RNA. Drugs. Vitamins.

AAAAABAD A large number of synthetic drugs contain heterocyclic ring systems in their structures. Knowledge of heterocyclic chemistry is very useful in biosynthesis, as well as in drug metabolism. Classification OF Heterocyclic Compounds: Knowledge of heterocyclic chemistry is very useful in biosynthesis, as well as in drug metabolism. Heterocyclic compounds include many of the biochemical material essential to life. The major classes of heterocycles containing the common heteroatoms are reviewed in order of increasing ring size. Classification by ring size is convenient because heterocyclic rings of a given size have many common features. Heterocyclic compounds may be classified into: - 1 -The five membered heterocyclic compounds. 2 -The Six membered heterocyclic compounds. 8

1 -The five membered heterocyclic compounds: Consist of five cyclic compounds having one heteroatom example Furan, or consist of five cyclic compounds having more than one heteroatom example Pyrazole, as follow in Figure 4: The five membered heterocyclic compounds Pyrrole , Furan. https: //www. google. com/url? sa=i&url=https%3 A%2 F%2 Fbiology. univ. kiev. ua%2 Fimages%2 Fstories%2 FNapryamy_ pidgotovky%2 FMedicine_ENG%2 FBulletin_board%2 Fnews%2 F 2018_05_21_Materials_for_Preparations%2 F 3_5_ Heterocycles. pdf&psig=AOv.

Introduction To Some Heterocyclic Compounds: Heterocyclic Indole Ring & Essential Amino Acid Tryptophan: The heterocyclic compound, Indole(figure-6) is present in the amino acid Tryptophan is a building unit of proteins. Also Indole is the base of important drugs such as INDOMETHACIN (figure-6) , which is used mostly for inhibit inflammation, Inhibit Pain in joint diseases and treat gout. Tryptophan 7 INDOMETHACIN 8 Figure 6: - Heterocyclic Indole Ring of Tryptophan, while Indole ring of Tryptophan present. Indomethacin. Heterocyclic Indole Ring in Serotonin: The other heterocyclic compound contain Indole is present in Serotonin, it’s a monoamine neurotransmitter, synthesized in the central nervous system(CNS), and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of animals including humans. 10

Serotonin Function: Serotonin Its function in the central nervous system(CNS) It is popularly thought to be a contributor to feelings of well-being and happiness, and include the regulation of mood, appetite, and sleep. Serotonin also has some cognitive functions, including memory and learning, but in gastrointestinal tract (GIT) Serotonin is used to regulate intestinal movements. walnut plums Where can you found Serotonin? Figure 6: Serotonin Figure 6 is found in mushrooms, fruits and vegetables. The highest values of 25– 400 mg/kg have been found in nuts of the walnut. Serotonin concentrations of 3– 30 mg/kg have been found in plantains, pineapples, banana, kiwifruit, plums, and tomatoes. 11

Heterocyclic DNA & RNA: There are two types of nucleic acids which are polymers found in all living cells. Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) is found mainly in the nucleus of the cell, while Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) is found mainly in the cytoplasm of the cell although it is usually synthesized in the nucleus. DNA Figure-7, contains the genetic codes to make RNA and the RNA in turn then contains the codes for the primary sequence of amino acids to make proteins. Figure-5: The DNA conformation structure. Heterocycles in natural compounds are the major components of biological molecules such as DNA & RNA. DNA is without a doubt the most important macromolecule of life. Heterocyclic Amines (Cytosine C, Thiamine T, Uracil U, Adenine A, and Guanine G) are Heterocyclic amines of DNA, & RNA are sometimes called nitrogen bases or simply bases, figure-7. For convenience, you may remember, the list of heterocyclic amines in DNA by the words: The Amazing Gene Code (TAGC). There are two major purines, adenine (A) and guanine (G), and three major pyrimidines, cytosine (C), uracil (U), and thymine (T). The structures are shown in the graphic on the left. As you can see, these structures are called "bases" because the amine groups as part of the ring or as a side chain have a basic property in water. 12

There are two major purines, adenine (A) and guanine (G), and three major pyrimidines, cytosine (C), uracil (U), and thymine (T). The structures are shown are called " Nitrogen Bases " because the amine groups as part of the ring or as a side chain have a basic property in water. Figure 8: Heterocyclic Amines or Nitrogen Bases. The heterocyclic amines are derived from two root structures: purines or pyrimidines. The purine root has both a six and a five member ring; the pyrimidine has a single six member ring, or a building block structures of DNA and our genes. Nucleic acids DNA are important in biological processes of heredity and evolution. Gout in humans: Disease Related with DNA Heterocyclic Compounds: In humans DNA degraded. Breakdown occur and the final oxidation product of purine metabolism is Uric acid is normally cleaned out of the blood by the kidneys, and passes out of the body along with urine. In severe disorder of purine metabolism, Xanthine oxidized to Uric Acid crystals and deposited in joints as monosodium ureate causing acute arthritis joint inflammation, and uric acid is excreted in urine. Figure-9: Gout deposited in joints as monosodium urate causing acute arthritis joint inflammation, and uric acid is excreted in urine. 13

What Causes Gout? Gout seems to be associated with: Changes in hormones. Alcohol. Hereditary influence. Thiazide diuretics Purine rich foods Associated diseases: Chronic Renal Failure. Cardiovascular diseases. Diabetes, & Obesity. Figure-10: Rectum cancer Heterocyclic amine formation in meat: Epidemiological studies show associations between intakes of heterocyclic amines and cancers of the colon, rectum Figure-9, breast, prostate, pancreas, lung, stomach. Animal feeding experiments support a causal relationship. Figure-10 14

Sulfur is a Heterocyclic Compound. Sulfur is an essential element for all life, . Three amino acids (cysteine, cystine, and methionine) and two vitamins (biotin and thiamine) are contain sulfur compounds. Many cofactors also contain sulfur including glutathione. Disulfides, S–S bonds, confirm mechanical strength and insolubility of the protein keratin, found in outer skin, hair, and feathers. Sulfur is one of the core chemical elements needed for biochemical functioning and is an elemental macronutrient for all organisms. Pharmaceuticals: Sulfur (specifically octal sulfur, S 8) is used in: 1 - Pharmaceutical skin preparations for the treatment of acne. 2 -It acts as a keratolytic agent. 3 - Kills bacteria, fungi, scabies mites and other parasites. 4 - Precipitated sulfur and colloidal sulfur are used, as lotions, creams, powders, & soaps, so sulfur-containing antibiotics save Figure 12: Sulfur The octal Sulfur structure S 8 https: //www. google. com/url? sa=i&url=https%3 A%2 F%2 Fwww. chemtub e 3 d. com%2 Fs 8%2 F&psig=AOv.

The effect and pollution of Sulfur: Elemental sulfur is non-toxic, as are most of the soluble sulfate salts, soluble sulfate salts are poorly absorbed. When injected they are freely filtered by the kidneys and eliminated with very little toxicity in multi-gram amounts. When sulfur burns in air, it produces sulfur dioxide. In water, this gas produces sulfurous acid and sulfites; sulfites are antioxidants that inhibit growth of aerobic bacteria and a useful food additive in small amounts. At high concentrations these acids harm the lungs, eyes or other tissues. 15
