Abstract

Of the more than 20 known oxoaporphine alkaloids, only a few are phenolic in nature.'Among these, subsessiline, which has been assigned structure contains the unusual feature of a phenolic function at the C3 position of the aporphine system. In connection with other alkaloid structural studies in progress in our laboratory, we have now synthesized 9- hydroxy-1, 2, 3-trimethoxy-7H-dibenzo [de, g] quinolin-7-one
