Abstract

Romucosine ( 1 ), a novel aporphinoid alkaloid possessing a N -(methoxycarbonyl) group, along with 12 known compounds including eight isoquinoline alkaloids, anonaine ( 2 ), glaucine, purpureine, liriodenine, oxoglaucine, oxopurpureine, berberine, and tetrahydroberberine, and four lignans, yangambin, magnolin, eudesmin, and membrin, have been isolated and characterized from the fresh unripe fruits of Rollinia mucosa (Annonaceae). The structure of 1 was established by chemical and spectroscopic means.
