Diterpenoid alkaloids from Aconitum episcopale / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the diterpenoid alkaloids from Aconitum episcopale. Methods: The obtained compounds were isolated by different chromatographic methods and their structures were identified by physicochemical properties and spectral data. Results: Ten diterpenoid alkaloids were isolated and identified as talatizamine (1), chasmanine (2), crassicauline A (3), foresaconitine (4), acoforestinine (5), yunaconitine (6), 3-deoxy-8-deacetyl-yunaeonitin (7), leucanthumsine D (8), pengshenine B (9), and macrorhynine B (10).
