A new diterpenoid alkaloid, gymnandine (I) along with known alkaloids 14-acetyl-8-O-methyltalatisamine (II), acoforine (III), columbidine (IV), aconitine (V), ranaconitine (VI), talatizidine (VII), isotalatizidine (VIII), gymnanconitine (IX), talatisamine (X), and atisine HCI (XI) have been isolated from this unique species. The structure of I is determined on the basis of spectral evidences and comparison of the 13CNMR spectrum with that of denudatine.
