Macrocyclic spermidine alkaloids from Androya decaryi L. Perrier

Molecules. 2013 Apr 4;18(4):3962-71. doi: 10.3390/molecules18043962.

Abstract

Three new spermidine alkaloids and two known compounds were isolated from the leaves of Androya decaryi. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of their spectroscopic data (NMR and mass spectrometry), by X-Ray diffraction and by comparison with literature values. Evaluation of the in vitro antiplamosdial properties of the isolated compounds revealed they did not possess any significant activity.
