Phytochemistry. 2006 Oct;67(19):2164-9. doi: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2006.06.017. Epub 2006 Jul 26.

Abstract

The leaves of the plant Mitragyna parvifolia have afforded two alkaloids, 16,17-dihydro-17beta-hydroxy isomitraphylline (1) and 16, 17-dihydro-17beta-hydroxy mitraphylline (2), together with two known alkaloids, isomitraphylline (3) and mitraphylline (4). The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR spectral methods, including (1)H-(1)HCOSY, DEPT, HSQC, and HMBC. Mitraphylline was the main alkaloid constituent.
