Alkaloids from Daphniphyllum oldhami

J Nat Prod. 2008 Apr;71(4):564-9. doi: 10.1021/np070512s. Epub 2008 Feb 21.

Abstract

Four new Daphniphyllum alkaloids, daphnioldhanines H-K ( 1- 4), along with 34 known alkaloids, were isolated from Daphniphyllum oldhami. The known alkaloid dehydrodaphnigraciline ( 5) is now reported as a natural product. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, especially 2D NMR techniques. The effects against platelet aggregation of compounds 1, 3, and 5 were evaluated, and 3 showed stronger activity against platelet aggregation induced by PAF. This is the first report of quinolizidine alkaloids from the genus Daphniphyllum.
