Abstract
The reactions of the cytisine and anabasine alkaloids with cinnamic acid chloride have been studied, and hydrazinolysis of the resulting N -cinnamoylcytisine and N -cinnamoylanabazine has been carried out. The reaction of cinnamoyl isothiocyanate with alkaloids has afforded the corresponding thiourea derivatives. Antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity of cinnamoyl-containing derivatives of these alkaloids has been evaluated.
