The structure of capaurimine
Abstract
5,6,13,13a-Tetrahydro-1,9-dihydroxy-2,3,10-trimethoxy-8H-dibenzo[a, g]quinolizine (I), formerly thought to be capaurimine, has been synthesized, but was not identical with natural capaurimine. The 3,9-dihydroxy-1,2,10-trimethoxy-isomer (II) was also synthesized but was not identical with natural capaurimine. The previous assignment of the position of the substituents in capaurimine is therefore incorrect.
