Six alkaloids have been isolated from fresh bulbs of Crinum delagoense. The
alkaloids, delagoensine and delagoenine, are reported here for the first t
ime. The structure and stereochemistry of the new alkaloids have been deter
mined by physical and spectroscopic methods. H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra were
completely assigned by means of 2D NMR techniques. (C) 1998 Elsevier Scienc
