Abstract
The isolation and structure elucidation of isoancistrocladine, a novel naphthylisoquinoline alkaloid from the roots of Ancistrocladus heynea nus, is described. The structural attribution was greatly facilitated by the fact that isoancistrocladine had already been prepared before, by reduction of the natural product ancistrocladinine. Isoancistroclad ine is the first naturally occurring naphthylisoquinoline alkaloid tha t has a relative cis-configuration at C-1 versus C-3 without being met hylated on the nitrogen.
