Abstract
The aerial parts of D. sanguinea contain scopolamine as the principal alkaloid together with smaller quantities of hyoscyamine, norscopolamine, aposcopolamine, and other uncharacterised bases. From the roots, 3α, 6β–ditigloyloxytropane, 3,6–ditigloyloxytropan–7–ol, hyoscine, hyosciamine (and/or atropine) and small amounts of other alkaloids have been isolated. Zusammenfassung Die oberirdischen Teile von Datura sanguinea enthalten als Hauptalkaloid Scopolamin nebst geringeren Mengen von Hyoscyamin, Norscopolamin, Aposcopolamin und weiteren unidentifizierten Basen. Aus den Wurzeln wurden 3α, 6β–Ditigloyloxytropan, 3,6–Ditigloyloxytropan–7–ol, Hyoscin, Hyoscyamin (und/oder Atropin) und geringe Mengen anderer Alkaloide isoliert.
