title: Celahinine A, a new sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloid from Celastrus hindsii.
abstract: A new sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloid, celahinine A [1], and the related known polyester celahin A, as well as the known cytotoxic sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloid emarginatine A [2], were isolated from Celastrus hindsii. The structure of 1 was determined by 2D nmr techniques and was also confirmed by spectral comparison with the related 2.
