Definition Definition of of alkaloids:alkaloids: :: Alkaloids – nitrogen containing organic bases, usually of plant origin, which have an active biological action. Alkaloids are similar to alkali. Alkaloids - complex derivatives of ammonia, which have replaced hydrogen atom on radicals: tertiary or secondary amines, or derivatives of four substituted ammonium bases.Alkaloids are weak bases. Codeine has the strongest basic properties (К= 9·10-7), caffeine – the weakest (К = 4,1·10-14).
Distribution in natureDistribution in nature::Alkaloids, related by structure, often can be found Alkaloids, related by structure, often can be found in plants that are close in botanical terms. Mainly in in plants that are close in botanical terms. Mainly in one plant is a mixture of alkaloids (exception – one plant is a mixture of alkaloids (exception – castor plant containing ricynine). Some plants castor plant containing ricynine). Some plants (cinchona, poppy seeds, barberry) containing up to (cinchona, poppy seeds, barberry) containing up to 10-15% of alkaloids.10-15% of alkaloids.
Localization - most aerial parts of medicinal plants Localization - most aerial parts of medicinal plants (flowers, fruits, leaves, cortex). Some alkaloids can (flowers, fruits, leaves, cortex). Some alkaloids can be moved from one part of plant to another part. be moved from one part of plant to another part. Their content in plants depends on the: climate, Their content in plants depends on the: climate, temperature, altitude above the sea level and temperature, altitude above the sea level and others. So the content of ephedrine in Ephedra others. So the content of ephedrine in Ephedra may change during the year from 0.3% to 2.5%.may change during the year from 0.3% to 2.5%.

Classification of alkaloidsClassification of alkaloids AlkaloidsAlkaloids are naturally occurring chemical compounds containing are naturally occurring chemical compounds containing
basic nitrogen atoms. The name derives from the word alkaline and basic nitrogen atoms. The name derives from the word alkaline and was used to describe any nitrogen-containing base. Alkaloids are was used to describe any nitrogen-containing base. Alkaloids are produced by a large variety of organisms, including bacteria, fungi, produced by a large variety of organisms, including bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals and are part of the group of natural products (also plants, and animals and are part of the group of natural products (also called secondary metabolites). Many alkaloids can be purified from called secondary metabolites). Many alkaloids can be purified from crude extracts by acid-base extraction. Many alkaloids are toxic to crude extracts by acid-base extraction. Many alkaloids are toxic to other organisms. They often have pharmacological effects and use as other organisms. They often have pharmacological effects and use as medications and recreational drugs. Examples are the local anesthetic medications and recreational drugs. Examples are the local anesthetic and stimulant cocaine, the stimulant caffeine, nicotine, the analgesic and stimulant cocaine, the stimulant caffeine, nicotine, the analgesic morphine, or the antimalarial drug quinine. Some alkaloids have a morphine, or the antimalarial drug quinine. Some alkaloids have a bitter taste. Alkaloids are usually classified by their common molecular bitter taste. Alkaloids are usually classified by their common molecular precursors, based on the metabolic pathway used to construct the precursors, based on the metabolic pathway used to construct the molecule. When not much was known about the biosynthesis of molecule. When not much was known about the biosynthesis of alkaloids, they were grouped under the names of known compounds, alkaloids, they were grouped under the names of known compounds, even some non-nitrogenous ones (since those molecules' structures even some non-nitrogenous ones (since those molecules' structures appear in the finished product; the opium alkaloids are sometimes appear in the finished product; the opium alkaloids are sometimes called "phenanthrenes", for example), or by the plants or animals they called "phenanthrenes", for example), or by the plants or animals they were isolated from. When more is learned about a certain alkaloid, the were isolated from. When more is learned about a certain alkaloid, the grouping is changed to reflect the new knowledge, usually taking the grouping is changed to reflect the new knowledge, usually taking the name of a biologically-important amine that stands out in the synthesis name of a biologically-important amine that stands out in the synthesis process.process.
