Abstract
Two nonprotein amino acids, cycasindene and cycasthioamide, along with eight known nonprotein amino acids, were isolated from the seeds of C ycas revoluta Thunb. The Structures of cycasindene and cycasthioamide were elucidated as 3-[3'-amino-indenyl-2']-alanine (1) and N-[glycinyl -alaninyl-11-thio]-5-one-pipecolic acid (2) by chemical and spectral m ethods.
