Tootmisesananid

Tootmisesananid is a fictional organic compound used in speculative chemistry and science fiction contexts to illustrate discussions of natural products and medicinal chemistry. It is typically presented as a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic alkaloid with a polycyclic core and an amide substituent.

In these works it is described as a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic alkaloid with a polycyclic core and an amide substituent. The commonly depicted form includes a tricyclic framework with a fused diaza ring and a pendant side chain. Reported molecular formula in fictional treatments is C22H26N4O3, with an estimated molecular weight of about 386 g/mol.

Natural occurrence is attributed to the imaginary plant Tootmia misana from tropical forests, and to the fictional marine sponge Spongio tootmisa. In the lore, the compound is produced in trace amounts as part of a defense metabolite.

Synthetic routes in speculative literature describe a six-step sequence starting from commercially available aromatics and proceeding through a Pictet-Spengler-type cyclization, a late-stage amide formation, and a photoredox closing step. Typical physicochemical properties include solubility in dichloromethane and ethanol, and moderate stability at room temperature.

Proposed applications include medicinal chemistry as a potential lead for anti-inflammatory or antimicrobial agents, as well as a teaching example for structure–activity relationships. While widely used in fiction and thought experiments, tootmisesananid has no verified presence in nature or validated biomedical data.
