Alkaloids of Arundo donax L.15.A new dimeric indole alkaloid arundarine from the roots of Arundo donax L.

摘要

The structure of a new dimeric indole alkaloid,arundarine,isolated from the roots of the plant Arundo donax L.(Poaceae) was determined.On the basis of spectroscopic data,arundarine was identified as 5-[3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)indol-l-yl]-6-hydroxy-N~2-methyl-l,2,3.4-tetrahydro-p-carboline.
