The synthesis and biological evaluation of 5-hydroxy clausenamide (CM2), one of the major metabolites of clausenamide, and its stereoisomers have been carried out. The absolute configurations of (鈭?- and (+)-CM2 were assigned as 3S,4S,5S,6S and 3R,4R,5R,6R respectively based on 1H NMR spectroscopic investigation and their chemical correlation to (鈭?- and (+)-clausenamidone (3). Electrophysiological assay showed that compound (+)-CM2 and its C6 epimer (+)-8a had significant effects on synaptic transmission and thus induced the long-term potentiation of the dentate gyrus.
