Kopsifolines A–F: a New Structural Class of Monoterpenoid Indole Alkaloids from Kopsia

Six new indole alkaloids, named kopsifolines A–F ( 1 – 6 ), with an unprecedented hexacyclic carbon skeleton, constituting a new structural group of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids, were obtained from the leaf extract of a Malayan Kopsia species, and their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis.
