A new bisnorditerpenoid alkaloid lamarckinine (1) containing a C(19)=N
- azomethine group was isolated from Aconitum lamarckii Reichenb., bes
ides neoline, 1,14-diacetylneoline, 8-O-ethylbenzoylaconine, columbian
ine, delcosine, lycoctonine, and 18-methoxygadesine. The structure of
the new alkaloid was elucidated by 2D nmr spectroscopy and its convers
ion into deoxymethylenelycoctonine.
