Sesquiterpenes and alkaloids from Scorodocarpus borneensis

Phytochemistry. 2001 Oct;58(4):653-6. doi: 10.1016/s0031-9422(01)00103-0.

Abstract

A new sesquiterpene, scodopin, and a mixture of three tryptamine-type alkaloids, scorodocarpines A-C, were isolated from the fruits of Scorodocarpus borneensis, together with a known hemisynthetic sesquiterpene, cadalene-beta-carboxylic acid, which was isolated from the bark. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by interpretation of spectral data, especially tandem mass spectrometry for the alkaloid mixture.
