- Abstract
Schizanthus grahamii is an endemic Chilean plant that is known to contain tropane alkaloids. Five new alkaloids, grahamines A-E (1-5), were isolated and characterized by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Their structures were determined to be 2-{[(3α-hydroxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-methyl-3-{[((6β-angeloyloxy)-3α-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-4-phenylcyclobutanecarboxylic acid (1), 2-{[(3α-hydroxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-methyl-3-{[((6β-tigloyloxy)-3α-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-4-phenylcyclobutanecarboxylic acid (2), 1-methyl-2-{[(3α-hydroxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-4-{[((6β-angeloyloxy)-3α-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-3-phenylcyclobutanecarboxylic acid (3), 1,2-bis{[(3α-hydroxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-methyl-3-{[((6β-angeloyloxy)-3α-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-4-phenylcyclobutanecarboxylate (4), and 1-{[(3α-mesaconyloxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-{[(3α-hydroxytropo-6β-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-methyl-3-{[((6β-angeloyloxy)-3α-yl)oxy]carbonyl}-4-phenylcyclobutanecarboxylate (5).
