Abstract
The structure of (+)-retamine (1), which has been isolated from the ae rial part of Lygos raetam var. sarcocarpa, has been reconfirmed by spe ctroscopic methods including two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonanc e spectroscopy and x-ray analysis to be (+)-12 alpha-hydroxysparteine. The configuration of the hydroxyl group at the position 12 in (+)-ret amine and the intermolecular hydrogen bond in the crystal structure of (+)-retamine have been established.
