| Abstract: | Sixteen compounds, (+)-ushinsunine-β-N-oxide ( 1 ), cleistopholine ( 2 ), liriodenine ( 3 ), (-)-anonaine ( 4 ), (+)-nornuciferine ( 5 ), (+)-N-acetylnornuciferine ( 6 ), (-)-ushinsunine ( 7 ), (-)-norushinsunine ( 8 ), (-)-asimilobine ( 9 ), (+)-reticuline ( 10 ), N-trans-feruloyltyramine ( 11 ), β-sitosterol (12) and stigmasterol ( 13 ), lyscamine ( 14 ), (-)-anaxagoreine ( 15 ) and trans-cinnamic acid ( 16 ) were isolated from the methanolic extract of the Cananga odorata. Among them, 1 is a new stereoisomer of ushinsunine-β-N-oxide. The structures of these compounds were established by means of spectral experiments. |
