Rauniticine-allo-oxindole B and rauniticinic-allo acid B, new heteroyohimbine-type oxindole alkaloids from the stems of Malaysian Uncaria longiflora var. pteropoda

Abstract

Two new heteroyohimbine-type oxindole alkaloids, rauniticine-allo-oxindole B and rauniticinic-allo acid B, have been successfully isolated from the stems extract of Malaysian Uncaria longiflora var. pteropoda. The structures of the two new alkaloids were determined by spectroscopic analysis.
