title: A new subclass of alkaloids from a dendrobatid poison frog: a structure for deoxypumiliotoxin 251H.
abstract: Deoxypumiliotoxin 251H [4], representing a new subclass of the pumiliotoxin-A class of alkaloids, has been isolated from a dendrobatid frog, Epipedobates tricolor. The structure, elucidated by nmr, gc-Ftir, and mass spectral analyses, is proposed to be an 8-methyl-6-(5-hydroxy-2-methylhexylidene)-1-azabicyclo[4.3.0]nonan e. The absolute stereochemistry and the relative configuration of the hydroxyl group are unknown.
