title: Minor constituents of Spigelia anthelmia and their cardiac activities.
abstract: A more detailed phytochemical analysis of extracts of the aerial parts of Spigelia anthelmia L. (Loganiaceae) yielded 20 structurally related new compounds besides spiganthine and ryanodine. Structure elucidation was achieved mainly by spectroscopic methods. The compounds were tested on their cardiac and on their insect antifeedant activities.
