Abstract:
AIM To investigate the chemical constituents of
Murraya kwangsiensis. METHODS Compounds were isolated by silica gel column chromatography and TLC method, respectively. Structures of compounds were elucidated by spectral (UV, IR, MS,
1HNMR and
13CNMR) analysis. RESULTS Five carbazole alkaloids and two other compounds were isolated and identified. Six of them are known compounds: murrayafoline A, murrayanine, koenine, isomahanine, palmitic acid and β-sitosterol. One is a new alkaloid, named kwangsine. CONCLUSION A new alkaloid, named kwangsine, was isolated from
Murraya kwangsiensis Var. Six known compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.
