8-benzylberbine and N-oxide alkaloids from Aristolochia gigantea

From the ethanol extract of Aristolochia gigantea Mart an 8-benzylberbine-type alkaloid and an N-oxide were isolated together with pinitol and sequoyitol. Structural assignments were based on analysis of spectral data, mainly by 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques. (C) 1997 Elsevier B.V. Ltd.

Tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids and 2-deoxyribonolactones from Aristolochia arcuata

2-Deoxyribonolactones and four tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids were isolated from the acetone extract of the leaves of Aristolochia arcuata Mast., together with pinitol, sequoyitol, glycerol, fructose, sucrose, eupomatenoid-7, salsolinol, and 6,7-dihydroxyl,1-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic methods, mainly using H-1, C-13, N-15, and P-31 NMR. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. Ltd. All rights reserved.
