Abstract

Dichloromethane extracts of a Brazilian bark assigned as Anemopaegma mirandum contained four tropane alkaloids. MS-, UV-, IR-, 1H NMR-data and specific optical rotation allowed the identification of catuabin C and its 7-exo-hydroxy-20-methyl-derivative. As no alkaloids are described for Anemopaegma these results indicate heterogeneity for the investigated drug and require a further review.
