Abstract

Plant Sciences

The aerial parts of Zanthoxylum ovalifolium (Rutaceae) have yielded the two novel benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids terihanine (8-demethylnitidine) and isoterihanine (9-demethylnitidine) together with nitidine, the unusual furoquinoline 5-methoxydictamnine, canthin-6-one and several common furocoumarins. The finding of benzo[c]phenanthridine and furoquinoline alkaloids in Australian material of this species confirms its chemical homogeneity throughout its range from India to Australia.
