Abstract
New monomeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, yaoundamines A and B, we re isolated from Ancistrocladus korupensis and their structures were d etermined by extensive chemical and spectroscopic analyses. The absolu te configuration at C3 was established by chemical degradation, while the axial chirality was deduced by comparison of experimental and calc ulated CD spectra. Yaoundamine B has an unprecedented glycosylated nap hthylisoquinoline structure. Yaoundamines A and B are active in vitro against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. .
