Abstract

A new dimeric indole alkaloid which was named pseudovobparicine 1, was isolated from the rootbark of Tabernaemontana divaricata (Apocynaceae). Its structure was elucidated by means of UV, CD, 1H-NMR and mass-spectrometry. Biogenetically it is thought to be derived from the alkaloids apparicine and vobasinol.
