Two new alkaloids from Hornschuchia obliqua

Fitoterapia. 2003 Feb;74(1-2):29-33. doi: 10.1016/s0367-326x(02)00298-8.

Abstract

The stem and roots of Hornschuchia obliqua provided two new alkaloids, 4,5-didehydroguadiscine and demethoxyguadiscine. Four known alkaloids, roemerine, guadiscine, liriodenine and cleistopholine were also isolated. The structures of the novel compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, including 2D NMR and MS.
