title: Conversion of dechlorodauricumine into miharumine by a cell-free preparation from cultured roots of Menispermum dauricum.
abstract: Dechlorodauricumine (5) and dechloroacutumine (6) were converted to miharumine (7) and dechloroacutumidine (8), respectively, by a cell-free preparation from cultured roots of Menispermum dauricum in the presence of FAD. The structures of 7 and 8 were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and chemical conversion.
