- Abstract
Four new aspidosperma-type alkaloids, melosuavines J-M (1-4) were isolated from the leaves of Melodinus suaveolens. Their structures with absolute configurations were elucidated by extensive HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopic analysis, as well as ECD calculations and Mosher's method. Their cytotoxic activities against four human cancer cell lines were also evaluated., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest Authors declare that there is no conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
