title: Quaternary indole alkaloids from the stem bark of Strychnos guianensis.
abstract: Two new quaternary alkaloids, 9-methoxy-Nb-methylgeissoschizol and guiachrysine together with the known compounds C-alkaloid O, fluorocurine, mavacurine, macusine B and C-profluorocurine, were isolated from Strychnos guianensis stembark. The structures of the compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic studies.
