New curare alkaloids. II. New bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids from Abuta grisebachii (Menispermaceae).
From Abuta grisebachii Triana & Planchon, Menispermacea used by Sanama tribe for the preparation of curare, five bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids have been isolated; four of them are tertiary (peinamine and three new alkaloids, 7-O-demethylpeinamine, N-methyl,7-O-demethylpeinamine and macolidine) and one is a new quaternary alkaloid called macoline. Their structures have been elucidated on the basis of chemical reactions and spectroscopic data.
