Abstract

Abstract From the roots of Stephania cepharantha, a new morphinane alkaloid, named cephamorphinanine, was isolated along with seven known alkaloids including one aporphine, two morphinanes, one promorphinane and three bisbenzylisoquinolines. The structure of cephamorphinanine was established from spectral analysis and chemical correlation.
