C. Ito et al., STRUCTURES OF CLAUSAMINE-A, CLAUSAMINE-B, CLAUSAMINE-C, 3 NOVEL CARBAZOLE ALKALOIDS FROM CLAUSENA-ANISATA, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 46(2), 1998, pp. 344-346
Three novel carbazole alkaloids, named clausamine-A (1), -B (2), and -
C (3) were isolated from Clausena anisata (Rutaceae) collected in Thai
land, and their structures were elucidated by means of spectroscopic a
nalyses. All these novel carbazoles have 1-oxygenated 3,4-disubstitute
d structures with a lactone moiety. This is the first report of the is
olation of lactonic carbazole alkaloids from a natural source.
