Chemical ecology of arthropods. 9. Structure and absolute configuration of hippodamine and convergine, two novel alkaloids from american ladybug hippodamia convergens (coleoptera- coccinellidae)

In a previous communication (2) the isolation of two defensive alkaloid, hippodamine and convergine, from the American ladybug Hippodamia convergens was reported. A preliminary chemical study (2) led to the hypothesis that hippodamine could be represented by (1), with unknown stereochemistry at carbon atom 2. Convergine was supposed to be a 3a or 6a hydroxyhippodamine.
