Study on alkaloids from Ervatamia hainanensis / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the alkaloids from Ervatamia hainanensis. Methods: The alkaloids were isolated and purified by silica gel, MCI, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and semi-preparative HPLC, and their structures were elucidated by physical and spectroscopic analysis. Results: Twelve alkaloids were obtained and identified as coronaridine (1), 19-epi-heyneanine (2), 9,10-dimethoxycoronaridine (3), vobasine (4), vobasine N(4)-oxide (5), 3-oxo-19-epi-heyneanine (6), strictamine (7), deacetylakuammiline (8), pandine (9), rhazicine (10), rhazicine N(4)-oxide (11), and rhazimine (12). Conclusion: Compounds 8 and 10-12 are isolated from the genus Ervatamia Stapf for the first time, while compounds 3 and 5-7 are firstly obtained from E. hainanensis.
