Monoterpenoid Indole Alkaloids from Inadequately Dried Leaves of Alstonia scholaris

摘要

Six new indole alkaloids, named alstoniascholarines L–Q (>1–>6), together with nineteen known analogues were isolated from the inadequately dried leaves of Alstonia scholaris. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive analysis of spectroscopic data and by comparison of their physical and spectroscopic data with the literature values. In addition, the new alkaloids were tested for their cytotoxic and neurite outgrowth-promoting activities.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s13659-015-0066-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
