Prenylamine was initially used for the treatment of angina pectoris and later on withdrawn from the market in 1988 due to cardiac arrhythmias concern. The major phase I metabolite of prenylamine is p-hydroxy prenylamine that has a chiral center in the structure. Even though p-hydroxy prenylamine was synthesized earlier, it lacked complete analytical developments for chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation. However, p-hydroxy prenylamine reference material is not commercially available. The innovation of this manuscript is the development and validation of a chiral HPLC separation method and more extensive characterization of the reference material than previously reported method. Therefore, it was hypothesized to develop and validate normal phase HPLC method for p-hydroxy prenylamine reference material. p-Hydroxy prenylamine was synthesized in two batches and characterized successfully using 13 C NMR, 1 H NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). A normal phase chiral HPLC method was developed to analyze the p-hydroxy prenylamine purity. Separation of the p-hydroxy prenylamine enantiomers were achieved using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) on a ChiralCel ODH column at wavelength of 220 nm. The developed method was validated in terms of its linearity, accuracy, precision, and robustness for purification, purity assessment, and stability studies. Proton and carbon peaks were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. Functional groups were confirmed by FT-IR. Loss on drying was 0.3% and 0.6% for Batches 1 and 2, respectively. The purity of the developed reference material for Batches 1 and 2 was found to be 99.59% and 100%, respectively. Therefore, the synthesized batches of p-hydroxy prenylamine can be used in dope testing as reference material.

Green chemistry is an essential part of the chemistry for the organic synthesis and also plays a principal role to save the environment from the harmful and toxic catalysts. Fruit juice catalyzed chemistry is a vital part of green chemistry in which lemon juice play a potential role in a various organic transformations. This review article has been summarized (from 2011-2020) with the application and importance of lemon juice in synthetic organic transformation as well as synthesis of various type of nanoparticles and catalysts. This review article can help the researcher to develop the route for the synthesis of various scaffolds, small molecules, nanoparticles and catalysts under economical and environment friendly condition.

Aims of the study were the phytochemical investigation and chemical transformation of isolated compounds of medicinal plant listed in "Ayurveda" like Dolichandrone atrovirens, endemic to Indian subcontinents. From chloroform extract of D. atrovirens four compounds; Ursolic acid (1), Maslinic acid (2), Lupeol (3), βsitosterol (4) and from methanol extract five compounds; β-sitosterol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5), 10-O-trans-p-Methoxycinnamoylcatalpol (6), Kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), 6-O-[6"(S)hydroxy-2",6"dimethyl-2"(E)-7"-octadienoyl] catalpol (8) and Ixoside (9) were isolated.Ixoside was used for the semi-synthetic modification via azomethine ylide cycloaddition leading to novel spiro-oxindolo-pyrrolizidine adduct. The structures of novel adducts were elucidated by analysis of IR, MS and 1D/2D NMR data. Furthermore, to confirm the chemo selection of only one double bond, we performed density functional theory (DFT) calculation, which confirms the chemo selectivity. In addition, in-silico ADME studies and atom-additive approach based on SASA was also examined for the molecules which suggest that they may be potential future candidates for drug discovery.
